You Have Won Holiday Travel "Scam"

As what I’ve heard and read, there are travel agency are sending travel packages that says “you have won a holiday” I knew one of my friend received a letter from this travel agency (not to mention travel agency) and it’s says you paid 998 US dollar and you travel to this place blah and blah. My question is how I can sure that is not faked and scam? Maybe if I grab this travel holiday opportunities and then when I arrived to my destination then they will says that I’ll must pay this and that! What a heck!

My husband received some opportunity like this but he never believed those letters. They say you won but you not really won, you must pay first before you can go.
My thought is, as of now we are in global financial crisis, there are no people does not give you a free travel holiday without paying penny. You must first check the travel agency before you grab the opportunity or else you end up with many bills from your VISA.

As we can say, that Mauritius is Paradise Island, which is great for honeymooners, families and for couples who loved beach vacation as perfect relaxation and swimming for those people is seeking peace of mind. In Mauritius, there are many hotels that we can choose great accommodations and luxury hotel. One of the hotels I found Le Saint Geran One & Only resort that I can book online at only exclusive travel site, which is a tour operator exclusively around the world. They arrange best golf courses, luxury hotel and spa around the world. The Le Saint Geran One & Only resort hotel belongs to one of the nicest hotel in the world.

Paris By Night


I like Paris. Many people say Paris is the most romantic city in the world. I’ve been in Paris past few years ago and went up to the top floor of Eiffel tower. At the top floor, it has beautiful and breathtaking views of Paris. Have you been in Paris? Maybe you would like the little preview about the latest of Eiffel tower.

This is what I’ve read this evening on online news.

Yesterday on the 14th of December, the Eiffel Tower lighted up in the blue colours of the European Union as like the color of European flag for French Eu Presidency.

I found it is very nice color, I think very attractive of the tourist people and Parisians people, isn’t it?

How I wish I could visit again in Paris someday with my son.

The Vacation Dreams To Escape In Coldness


Have you dream to have a vacation during in wintertime to escape from coldness? If you ask me in the same question, I wish to have a vacation to away from coldness.

The days become shorter. Nowadays the temperatures are getting lower and lower and tour operators say which the great destinations in this winter season are. However, where exactly to escape from this cold season, where we should go?

Today, this is what I want to share you my fellow travellers, what I have read from magazine news the place where we should go to escape from this cold season.

The romantic bath vacation in the Indian Ocean.

In Maldives: Rest purely.

If you search absolute rest and a breathtaking inderwater world, Maldives is the right place for you. Here on more than hundred island there are countless lodging at the highest star lievel. The travel months and January and February. Then it almost never rains and temperatures rule constantly about 30 degrees.

Goa: More than party on the beach.
Goa numerous ones generously top resorts decorated. From January to April the best time holiday season. Experience hardly rain and temperatures is about 30 degrees.


Cambodia: In the empire of the temples. The country on the Indo-chinese peninsula is still a confidential tip. It gives nowhere up to so narrow space so many great temples like in the region around Angkor Wat. Cambodia can be combined very well with a Thailand trip. The low life costs, which relieve the holiday cash, are especially attractive. Ideal holiday season: January and February.

Argentina: Hot tango and rough nature.
If we are in winter the clammy fingers warmly breathe, summer rules in Argentina: Unique glacier sceneries and the Iguazu waterfalls provide with nature lovers for enthusiasm; reveler throw themselves in the pulsating life of the capital of Buenos Aires. The best holiday season: From December to February.

Fervently announced towns

Dubai: The metropolis of the superlatives in winter an absolute vacation dream: The temperatures about 25 degrees, great beaches and many shopping possibilities – among the rest, the biggest Mall standing shortly before opening of the world – and top-excluding lodgings. Special highlight: the hotel of Atlantis on the point of the piled up palm island

Jerusalem: A town with history
A tour by the amusing Old Town makes clear the unique historical town to the visitor. Unfortunately, Israel is rather avoided by many tourists based on security doubt. However, who keeps to a few behavioural rules, will find out that travelling is completely safe in Israel.

Romantic Castle

The Castle Shadau

This is the place when my husband and I sometimes have nothing to do during weekends before the weekdays come to do hard work. We just stroll here sitting on the bank in the park and roam around having refreshment of the day. The Castle Shadau it has cozy restaurant where we have something to eat. The foods is great and of course mixing with the scenic views of the alpine that makes you love to stay more and more in restaurant. I love the place is very romantic and peaceful and it has gastronomic museum inside of the castle offers a glimpse to the culture of eating and drinking.



Castle Schadau is the beautiful castle in Thun on the lakeshore and with the amazing alpine views. The Castle Schadau located at the south of Thun 10 minutes from the railway station.
The castle built between 1849 and 1854. Inside of the castle very sophisticarted.


So when you have plan to go in Thun don’t miss to visit Schadau castle… I can say that the romantic castle that I’ve ever visited.

Bears In Bern


If you’re planning to visit in Bern the capital city of Switzerland visit Baerengraben (Bärengraben) where you can find the brown bears. This is another spot in Bern in Baerengraben. Bear is symbolizes of the city. The legend was the duke named the city and killed the bear here. I don’t know if this is true story but people mostly saying this story.

Coming soon bears pit have a new park. Nowadays they’re building the new park for bear pits and for human. This could very exciting I am sure this is also the one most attractive in the city of Bern this will be open on October 2009. They’re building down to the banks of Aare river now as I’ve seen last week (October 19) so this is great for bear pits, with friendly nature and with beautiful landscape, bears can swim and play in the big area.
