Welcome to Austria!

If you like nature and cold weather, or if you are sweet-toothed; Austria is the country you need. You can do whatever you want, except sunbathing on a beach (there is no sea there). If you are a ski lover some of the best ski slopes of Europe are to be found in these alpine areas. Comparing the great Alps of Austria and the Pyrenees of France and Spain I would chose the mountains in central Europe. However, if you are not brave enough to ski and, perhaps, brake an arm, there are many other activities to do in the countryside. One example is ornithology, observing the slippery grouse in danger of extinction in Spain and in many European countries. If you like fishing trout in the cold rivers of the Alps, this country is the best place you can find.

The capital, Vienna, is all a leisure center. There are antique markets every Thursday and the Sacher hotel is a place you must not forget to visit. If you are in Vienna during the cold and snowy winter, the Sacher hotel will give you time to marvel at the hot chocolate and eat the famous Sacher cake while you watch the falling snow in the street. Vienna is also good to start the study of German, one of the main European languages.

If you don’t know where to go, take a jet and fly to Austria.

Dream Islands

Probably, now that December is starting all of us have thought about going to an exotic beach, or to a warm, lost island. Now I am going to help you choose your Christmas destination, or if you are not lucky enough to go there, you can dream about it for a while.

MADAGASCAR:

A visit to Madagascar is the dream of everyone with explorer blood, and could be an unforgettable way to start this New Year. It is the fourth biggest island in the world, and each of its corners hides thousands of mysteries to be discovered. Do you dare to be the first?

There are plenty of adventures to choose from, but without any doubt, the best option is to go on an expedition all over the island, stopping in different places. Most guided visits include tours to plenty of reservoirs where you will learn plenty of things from the more than twenty different cultures that are found in this culturally rich island.

THE MALDIVES:

The most visited paradisiacal islands are the Maldives. Put away your scarf, your gloves, that heavy wool jersey, and imagine yourself walking down this beach in a very light swimsuit, feeling the sun on your skin, the fine and hot sand caressing your bare feet, or listening to the gentle sounds of waves while sipping a cocktail lying by the sea. You can also bathe in one of the big blue turquoise lagoons, enjoying the green and fresh vegetation that surround them. Wouldn’t it be fantastic?

Of course this is not all, the Maldives offer us plenty of activities, you can go diving in its marvellous underwater coral gardens seeing the colours of the thousands of different fish that inhabit the charming aquamarine waters.

Cuore

Hi everybody!

I´m going to talk about a magazine that I usually buy, and you will think,“ Hmm, if she buys it, she will only say good things about it ”, well it´s just the opposite. I´ve been thinking about it and I have realized that this magazine, named “CUORE”, is just a useless magazine that consists of criticizing famous people and their defects.

This magazine is a way to make fun of celebrities and also take our money. In my opinion, aren´t we taught from childhood to respect others despite their defects? So why do we read the kind of magazines that say just the opposite?

And you will think that Cuore also informs us about current events, comments on films, offers crosswords … and of course this is a valid point. But it’s a bit cruel saying , for example, that Angelina Jolie has prominent veins on her arms or that when Shakira wants to enjoy a day on the beach, those extra pounds are showing.

But taking all this into account, the strangest thing is that we continue to buy this magazine, myself included. But seriously, I’m going to think again before buying this magazine.

I really want to know your opinion, what do you think?
