The red houses village
Have you ever been in red houses village? A village might always not remind us of green color and grass smell, in a trip to Abyaneh(a village in Iran), color was the first thing that attracted my attention. All the houses and walls even the temples were red, because the soil contained iron. One of seventh incredible Iran’s villages with people in different colored costumes that still today dress and make their houses like their ancestors to preserve their traditions.
A 22 kilometer narrow paved road from Kashan(a city in Iran) to Abyaneh, every kilometer far from the city we were, tens of kilometers closer to the village, tranquility and & we were. It was quite in the middle of spring and despite the fact that in Tehran we hadn’t got much rain, there had been just two or three dry days, and also the day we were there was a stunning rainy day, in the blink of a eye it turned to a sunny day and a fantastic rainbow which I’d been waiting to see for more than fifteen years in Tehran’s sky made a memorable day for me.
A gallant and placid man with some bread in his hand who treated us with great amiability was the first villager that I saw there, without knowing us, he started talking about the village and showing us around, of course after offering bread, after a short walk we saw some women with ruddy cheeks selling homemade sundried fruit, fruit paste and special traditional scarves which they all wearing the same, to respect them we bought some delicious sundried fruit.
Another different surprising thing is about different occasions , specially Ashora, when they all gather in the village even their young children , who are mostly educated and live or study in cities , also wear costumes and have a very special mourning for imam Hussein , which attracts a lot of tourists who are seeking something out of ordinary .
If I go there once more, I’d like to be there in fall, to see the whole village even the trees in warm colors. I’d never forget its friendly and extrovert people, fantastic views, and the breezy weather.

Lunar New Year is a great holiday which give me time to do many things. I may have time to read, to enjoy music, to chat and have drink with friends, to get around the town, to visit relatives and to watch movies with boyfriends. Those things are hard for me to do in my studying time. On the new year’s days, there are many interesting activities for me to join. If you have chance, come and you’ll see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Hello every bodies,
I am Sath. It is pleasure for me to share some ideas on the best holiday in my life.
First of all, I apologise to you all who get difficulty on understanding about my English written.
I have been to Angkor Wat where is a place for tourists from around the wolrd. It is located in the northeast province of country namely Siem Reap province. It impresses precisely to me when I hear about Siem Reap province. Let me translate the word of Siem Reap. Siem was a nation which was called in the past. Reap is a Khmer word actually and it is mean that DISAPPEAR OR LOSE. It was very proud of Cambodian in this province in the past. Now it becomes a famous place to show their beauty of ancient temple and scenery.
I went there with my family. It was very nice holiday because it was the first time for all my family members. All people in my family were happy and enjoyed with many temples. It was a good view of mountains and temples especially the sunset at the Bak Kheng mountain. I saw many tourists from various contries.
It made me fresh and never forget this day.

the best vacation which i spend was for 12 days in sydney. it has nothing to do with city or the beaches over there but the countryside in new south wales. after a very long period i had those relaxaed days with love of my life. as i am working, eating, studying and sleeping from last one year. their was nothing adventurous left in my life but spending time with loved ones without ant sort of burden on your shoulders is such a relief from hectic life. it was awesome time and i must thank that one person for this holiday.

Last summer I went to the US for 3 months to take part in Work and Travel programme. From the trip, I realized a lot of things: America is not a utopia (there are plenty of homeless people on the streets, somewhere like downtown). Also, the relatives that I thought, at first, they might be helpful or welcomed me when I visited them but in fact, it didn’t work out in that way as I expected and that the complete strangers will help you the best they can, people like Nike staff. One more thing I learnt that there are still many many good people out there, (although it is said American people are very practical): the supportive managers in Nike store, the generous customers who are ready to share their Disney World tickets with me, or just simply a cheerful smile from the worldwide customers who are from different countries around the world, especially from South of America and Britain. I have to say that I never met so many nice people at the same time like that. and I still remember what Shamu said during the firework in Sea World: “Good friend is here when you need the most”. I always remember that and I would suggest you to go to Sea World if you ever visit Orlando. You know, people who are from the UK have a funny accent ;). (maybe I’m used to hearing American accent) Wow, during the time I worked for Nike, come to think of it, I wasn’t the best employee of the year (although every week, I looked up the noteboard but I never saw my name in the 5 best cashier of the week :((. and as the cashier I made the most mistakes, and then I realize something is that “do not fear or repeat mistakes”. I still remember that even the last day I worked there, I made Nike lose money and it was about $175 dollars or something and it was a mistake, there was a customer (British accent, I think) came to the store to buy clothes and he paid by debit card. The transaction hadn’t gone through and I was waiting for the computer to response and the receipt didn’t come out and when I looked back, the customer thought he already paid the money so he already left. And when the manager knew it, they called me into the office and rewound the video they recorded and watched, after that, they told me to be more careful the next time and they didn’t scolded me or asked me to pay back the money. I was startled and this was the life time lesson. I couldn’t sorry enough for the mistakes I made and they just said, everyone makes mistakes so don’t worry, just focus on the customer service. I still felt guilty until now. It was my fault. If talking about mistakes, I made thousands of mistakes when working there, something like the thief went to another store to steal things and came to our store to return it to get money. I nearly gave him the $500 dollars but at that time, I thought it was a big amount of money so I’d got to have the manager’s approval. And guess what, when they checked the barcodes on the trainers, they knew those pairs of shoes were stolen from another store. Of course, the stealer has to leave the shoes at the store and went. They didn’t arrest him because there was no evidence to do so. To be honest, I’m not so sporty but I like the way Nike works and now I start liking sport clothes ;P. now I know how to read a pair of trainers to see what they are for; running, lifestyle… or if the T-shirts are dry-fit or something like that. It was a learning experience. Besides Florida , I also visited some other states like: Virginia , Pennsylvania , and California . This is a good year for me, one of my dreams already came true: visiting Disney World, Universal Studios, Hollywood , Beverly Hills , Independence Halls, Liberty Bells,…. So I hope everyone also has a chance like this to visit places and learn new things. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes because from them, you learn a lot of things, more than others do ;).

The best vacation I have had was going to Hawaii for eleven days. What wonderful, amazing vacation! Every thing I saw and eat there was new for me. Everybody is very friendly there. You hear all day long ” ALOHA “. It is hi and goobye there. As soon as you arrive at the airport somebody comes and say “aloha” and put in your neck a big beautiful neckless made with local real flowers. The beaches are beautiful, one where I went the sand is totally black, can you believe that! The Volcano Park is speechless, you can see the lava coming smoothly and walk around some holes with the real steem, it is very hot!
I went to a “lual” for 300 people, it is a big dinner party with Hawaiians dancing their local dance and with special, local and delicious food. I loved evevery single day over there, I’ll come back.

The best vacation I ever had was back in the 1980’s, when we were doing very good as a family. Those days blessed us with many superb things, and so we got the chance to travel around this country and enjoy both landscapes and some cultural traits that are really good.
Besides, I was a teenager and so life was full of dreams and pursuits. That added flavor to the events.
I don’t forget about those days since nowadays things are far different, and trials have been hovering around for a long time.
