I think everyone living in the United States know about Cinco de Mayo. If you are a US citizen who does not know about this even, well, I guess that’s a real shame. Simply put, Cinco de Mayo is “5th of May”. This is a holiday that is celebrated by the whole region of Mexico. The main events are usually held in the state of Puebla. Some people who are not well-versed about Cinco de Mayo think that it is Mexico’s Independence Day celebration, but actually it is not. Cinco de Mayo memorializes the preliminary victory of the Mexican forces under the leadership of General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguin over the French forces in the battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

Cologne – yup, when I read about this country I didn’t really know how to pronounce it. It is spelled like Eau de Cologne, so probably it’s pronounced in the same way as well. And I was right. So, Cologne is the fourth largest city in Germany. If you live in this place or have traveled in this city, you’re very lucky because you’ve seen some of the most amazing sights in the world. If you’ve been to Cologne then you shouldn’t have missed the magnificent Cathedral and the Twelve Romanesque Churches. Mind you, you’ll get dizzy traipsing through 30 Museums and hundreds of galleries. But these are part of everything that Cologne has to offer.

Swimming is a great hobby and an excellent form of exercise. A 50-yard pool would already be great, especially if your aim is only to exercise and get rid of the kinks in your body. A hundred yard pool is already huge for my taste, especially if I’d be swimming alone. So what more with a pool that is over 1,000 yards long?! Yes, there is such pool now. This can be found in Chile. And because of its really huge size of over 1,000 yards long, 115ft deep end and a capacity of 66 million gallons of water, there is no doubt this seaside pool is the new record holder for Guinness Book as the biggest pool in the globe. The second biggest pool found in Morocco, named Orthlieb, looks like a dwarf compared to this since it only measures 150 yards in length and 100 yards in width.

Some people prefer to search for more sun during summer. But then others also wish to get away from it, especially those who do not wish to have their fair skin darkened and burned by the sun. If you’re one of them keep in mind that you don’t have to stay at home the whole summer just to get away from the heat of the sun. Why not go on a trek up in the icy land of Alaska? Explore the coolness of Kenai Peninsula. This place is in the southern portion of the anchorage. And do you know that this is one of the favorite tourist haunts in this part of the world? It’s true because aside from the ice and majestic glaziers, it has an amazing array of natural attractions.

Summertime is drawing near once again, and that means it’s party time again and some more fun in the sun! Do you have an itinerary at this time? No? Well it’s time you draw up one. Here, let me make a suggestion, why not target Spain? Spain’s climate is excellent during summer and it has gorgeous islands to boast about, one of them is Ibiza. Maybe this is the first time you’ve heard of this place. Well, this is located in the Mediterranean Sea as one of the Balearic Islands in Spain.

Miami is known for its beaches and seemingly unending fun in the sun. But do you know that in December this state also becomes a great attraction for artists and collectors?

Well, wouldn’t it just be so nice to stay in a place called Nice? Its name alone seems to be a good omen already. So where is this place? Nice is located South of Paris and Northeast of well-know Cannes. Nice is also well known by itself because it is the most accessible place whether you’re from Italy, Monaco, Cannes or Marseille. Aside from that, there are also great things to see.
