Travel: South America


British Virgin Island

The beach seems to be where the fun and relaxation never ends…I think no one can just really get enough of the beach! There are still a lot of lesser-explored places where beauteous beaches can be found. So this time why not venture into the British Virgin Islands? This is the place where you will be surrounded by endless blue oceans…To some this can be a daunting sight but for others it will be a welcome relief from concrete and other edifice.

So, where to go in once you’re in BVI? You can take your pick of the islands that comprise BVI like Tortora, Virgin Gorda, Anegada, Jost Van Dyke and lots of other little islands.

Amazon

Have feel for some excitement? And you don’t mind getting some mud on yourself? Well then why not try traipsing around the jungle of the Peruvian Amazon. This is pure excitement and adventure in the midst of nature! Aside from the pleasure you experience, visiting this place can also be educational. This part of the world is an awesome and splendid show of nature that provides richness in natural splendor and remedies that can cure any of your ills – definitely a naturist’s paradise.

If you want fresh air and a vast expanse of greenery, the dense jungle of Lima, Peru is the place that will give it to you. Your trek to the Peruvian jungle can commence at the inland seaport called Iquitos. From this place you can immediately proceed to the exciting Amazon basin. From this point you will witness another wonder of the world in the form of the Amazon River – the largest river on earth with 7 million cubic feet emptying from it in one minute and its length is 6,400km or 4,000 miles.

Cuenca

Do you want to see and experience something new for your holidays? Why not try traveling to Ecuador. Yup, let’s go South America this time!

The cold and snow can be strenuous after a while so going to this tropic place will be heavenly. You don’t need to travel the whole of the country, the specific place that I can point out where you can spend a unique and unforgettable holiday is Cuenca.

Have you thought about going to the Caribbean?
The Caribbean has a phenomenal view and breathtaking sights that will surely blow your socks off!
There are many amazing countries in the Caribbean such as Aruba, the Bahamas Cuba, Grenada and Jamaica to mention a few. But one of the most beautiful is Barbados.
Barbados is a very British Caribbean country. It's like England with sun! Some people even call it "Little England". Polo is played all winter tea time is popular, cricket, little villages and streets hold English names…you get the picture, all lock stock and two smoking barrels.

Argentina

Traveling need not be expensive. Surely, there are several places in the world that are yet to be discovered, explored, and enjoyed; more often than not, they are the ones that give you the best at the least expense. There are many beautiful travel destinations, too, that are often overlooked because we always think of the grand and the popular.

So, you want to try something inexpensive, unique and unusual this time? Head for Argentina!

Argentina is the eighth largest country in the world and the second in South America. Just as large as the area it occupies is the variety of its places of interest, people and culture. It is considered the most European country outside Europe because of its European roots that greatly influenced its lifestyle.

Windsurfing in Aruba

Aruba has become a haven for vacationers from around the world. And why? First, people go to Aruba for the windsurfing and sailing, which is unlike anywhere else, with Caribbean breezes to keep sails full. Second, the waters surrounding Aruba provide diving and snorkling opportunities that are second to none. And third, tourists love Aruba because there is no poverty on the island. There is virtually no unemployment on the island, and native Arubans make most everything from natural resources. Kayaking, parasailing, and golf are popular tourist choices as well, thanks to year-round temperate weather.

Havana Cathedral

Cuba might have some economic problems, but its capitol Havana is still as bewitching as ever; a great place to enjoy the finest music and cigars!

Visit the revolution museum, which is an important witness to those who died for the cause of social change.
Take a long walk on the malecon beach, which is a fantastic place for those who want to be fascinated with the art, décor and architecture of the fifties of the century.

chile mountains

One of the best countries to visit when aiming for an exquisite adventure is Chile.
Mountain biking, whitewater rafting, sea kayaking, canopy tours, caving, snorkeling, rock climbing, hiking and horseback riding are only some of the exciting activities you can do when on a trip to Chile. This long, narrow shaped country is on the pacific coast of South America.

Costa Rica Rain Forest

Costa Rica is located in South America, south of Nicaragua and north of Panama. Its capitol is called San Jose. A series of volcanoes and mountains runs through the country and separates the Caribbean Sea to the east from the Pacific Ocean on the west.

While Costa Rica lies completely in the tropics, the extreme variations in elevation set it apart from other tropical climates. The months from December to April are generally considered the "dry season", or summer, while winter, the "wet season", falls between May and November.
