POST 1: A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT

Welcome to your blog sessions. I hope you learn a lot and have fun writing your posts.

Today you can choose between two topics to write about:  A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT or THE BEST PLACE I'VE EVER BEEN TO.

           

COLOURFUL GUATEMALA.

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” This quote was written by St. Augustine and I absolutely agree with him on this one.  Travelling is one of the things I enjoy the most in life.   I’ve been to many places but Guatemala is one of the countries I have always wanted to visit but have never been to. 

I’d like to visit Guatemala because I have heard lots of people say that Antigua and Chichicastenango –two of the most important tourist places there- are even more colourful and interesting than some Mexican cities that I have already visited. Antigua is a city which was destroyed by an earthquake centuries ago, but  then it was rebuilt and became the most beautiful colonial Guatemalan city, and Chichicastenango is a place that has an important market where you can buy good fruit and vegetables, along with high quality handcraft –which is something I’m very interested in.

If I went there I would like to walk around the places, eat in nice restaurants, talk to the locals, visit the museums and buy some textiles and pottery. However I wouldn’t like to work or live there, because I think that after spending a few months in those cities I would probably get bored -I’m a city person and I would surely miss the things that a big city like Santiago can offer.

As the saying goes: Where there's a will, there's a way, so I'm saving money and one day lady luck will help me make another dream come true.
