Barcelona, Spain
In spanish class, we learned about the different cultures and traditions in many hispanic nations. In many countries, people have siestas. In literal translation, siesta means "the sixth hour", but it actually is a period of sleep during the day. After a big lunch, many people take long naps and at night they get ready for FIESTAS (aka, "parties")

Venice, Italy
Haven't you ever wanted to ride a tiny, long boat where someone was singing to you in a romantic and foreign language, pushing the boat as it goes? I always see it in movies. Whenever I watch one of those icky lovey dovey honeymoon movies where the couple goes on a vacation to a different country like Italy, there's always a scene where they ride a romantic boat along a narrow river and site see the islands of Venice. And then they plant a kiss...
As romantic as it seems, it just seems so calming. What I need right now is a vacation where I can relax my worked up body. Everyday I sit around and do homework, eat a feast for dinner, run to my classes, and go to sports practices. It's one busy hell of a life. All i need is TIME. Not that I need it.. I just WANT it. So I know for sure that I will one day go to Venice and experience this calmness myself (and maybe I could bring a companion... maybe my future husband??) :D
I know that this would be ages away, but I just found out that the 118 tiny islands of Venice are sinking at a rate of 2.5 inches per decade. It may seem a little, but that's actually a lot because the world has another 12408264084752934875023496509387450193846052987402486503924875093248650238475329485720348650239847502394875 and more years to go. I know I'll probably be dead by then, but before some islands disappear, I would love to take a trip to Venice. I heard its a little dirty, but I know it will always stay beautiful.
