Re: United States of America Destinations

I think it's fair to say that the US is one of the most popular countries to visit in the world, and you only have to look at the places in the original post to see why. Along with all the famous resorts though, there are many other towns and cities, national parks and beaches that people seem to fo...

Re: Never to old or young

I agree, and if you want to learn something new, and especially something like another language that's going to benefit you, age isn't something to ever worry about. The older we are, I've found with me at least that it does take me a little longer than it would have done a few years ago, but it's n...

Re: Japanese Culture

These days, tourism is a major income for a lot of countries around the world, and because of that, even though they do obviously have their own cultures and ways of doing things, I've found that they are a lot more understanding towards tourists than what they used to be. I've travelled to many dif...

Re: How did you learn English or teach your kids to learn English?

Being born and living in England, English is my native language but I know only too well how much of a hard language it is to learn. For people trying to learn English there are a lot of resources available online that are useful, but I found that a lot of them only give the learner a basic knowledg...

Re: Adjusting to the weather

Are we talking about adjusting to the weather or the currencies here? As with most things, the currency you will just eventually have to get used to and while you are right that in some countries it's easier than others, at the end of the day if you are constantly losing money I'm sure you will soon...

Re: Harder Than Ever To Travel

The days of just travelling to a country because you want to, are gone now it seems. Before we even plan a trip now we have to make sure that the country is safe, what sort of procedures are in place for foreign visitors in case something does happen, and by the time you have read all the warnings a...

Harder Than Ever To Travel

These days, due to the amount of terrorism throughout the world, more and more countries are imposing stricter regulations when it comes to entering. That isn't just for people looking to emigrate and start a new life, but even for the tourists that are just looking to visit for a couple of weeks. C...

Re: Which country has the worst food?

I actually quite like Piri Piri Chicken but then I guess there's no accounting for taste. Where I am from in the North West of England, round here we have a local food known as black pudding. Black pudding is actually made up of Oatmeal, Onions, Pork fat and clotted blood, usually from a pig. It the...

Re: Honesty When Writing About a Foreign Country

I'd imagine that a lot of it will have to do with certain different cultures and how they portray what the person is actually saying about the country in the first place. I've travelled to many different countries and I get the impression that people who live in countries such as the the UK, USA, Fr...

Re: long distance relationship

These days with technology being more and more available than ever before, I think that having a long distance relationship is easier now than it used to be. In the past I think a lot of the issues that arose were due to the fact that it was hard to communicate with the other person, and you'd often...
