Playa Del Amor "Hidden Beach of Mexico"
As soon as our boat arrived on Marietta Island, the passengers had to jump into the water and swim some 700 feet [200 m] to reach the shore. The islands are uninhabited to this day, and only licensed navigation service providers can take visitors to see the natural wonders nearby. The islands are uninhabited, but visitors often come to them to enjoy the diverse sea life and the unique Amor Beach paradise.

Salt Life
Jimmy Buffet wrote, “Mother, Mother Ocean/I have heard your call.” Well, I’ve finally been asked, “Why do you always end up at the beach? Your Facebook posts are all on the sand.” I’ve tried to resist saying, “Why not?” and instead, I’ll attempt to explain why “moonlit walks along the beach” is not just a cliché in my world.

Overland to India
We stood around a plaza in Delhi, India, near a post office or visa office, some sort of public building with space out front where young travelers gathered. The details blur. What remains in razor-sharp focus is how my eighteen-year-old self felt when I saw her; brutally smug.

What do you know about Brazil?
Although a few minor alterations occurred, racial discrimination has always been present in Brazil. Citizens were always categorized into levels in society being viewed with extreme prejudice according to their status. Ever since colonization, Brazilians were divided into hierarchies that strictly shackled people to their positions. The whites were often blessed with fortunes and high status; they were often elites, their flourishing business and trades giving them wealth and elevated power in society. As colonists, when they had first invaded Brazil, they conquered it by stripping Indigenous people off their culture and using them as slaves. With Africa, their next target, they imported their conquered African slaves to Brazil to extract the tropical goods with little to no payment in exchange for their exhausting labours. Women of the rich and poor were also racialized, favouring the whites to a higher and noble status than the poor. After abolition, substandard Africans and people of colour were forced to survive in shabby areas of the city, poverty-stricken and their lives dominated by the upper classes that lived in the luxuries part of the country. Today, the governing classes still seem ignorant and show racism towards the races of colour. Racial discrimination had always revolved in Brazil, it occurred during African and Indigenous slavery, between women, and even through upper and lower classes segregation in cities.

Humla(Nepal)-best place for mountaineering in the world
It is one of the least demanding and most limited mountain climbs in the locale and offers exceptional perspectives on the Himalayas, found southwest of Mount Everest. Traveling is the top movement for vacationers in Nepal, with thousands journeying to the mountains for a couple of days and others an extended climb through the valleys and high mountains. The perspectives on the mountains are not as excellent as on different climbs, and the feature is the remote climb with the most troublesome perspectives on Nepal's biggest lakes, Humla and Mount Kailash, an 18-day climb that incorporates the passage to Tibet.

One Step Too Many
1. May 2016 Wasn’t anything special of a day, neither of a life. It was literally like any other and yet I couldn’t complain. How could I? In the darkest of moments in my life, I had the support of loved ones by my side to aid me in just that… darkest of moments. It sure has baffled me to the core that my teen years have gone by more quickly than I was able to immerse myself in them and to remember the good times. Before I knew it, I was in survival mode. Living from paycheck to paycheck, pondering on what my life meaning was and how could I personally strive to have more success in it… whatever success meant at that time. Nevertheless, I come to know that I was in a tight spot just before my twenties and one thing was on my mind, sleep.

Austria, the country without a National Anthem
The text was written by Paula von Preradovic, one of the few women who wrote songs for the national anthem. On October 22, 1946, a new national anthem was announced, and in short, the Austrian national anthem was all. It is a complete celebration of the country, honoring the mountains and streams that Julie Andrews praised, the sound of music, and the conflicts and struggles that covered the violence of the past.
