Write a story which includes the sentence: ‘I could not believe how much the place had changed
Since last year.’
Port –Louis is the capital of Mauritius and it is about 20 killometers from my residence. The climate is usually hot there. Last year I went abroad for my ‘IT’ information technology course, after the completion of which, I return to my country for a vacation. I went to Port louis for a trip and ‘I could not believe how much the place had changed since last year.’While travelling in a brand new bus I saw some unfamiliar buildings of hospitals, colleges and radio stations.The buildings were all one of a kind in their structures and colours. I was glad to find that I was traveling on a new road and that there were significantly less polluting cars on the highway compared to last year. On my way, I noticed that most of the vehicules were elecrical ,among which some were some electrical sports car such as the Porsche Spyder 911 convertible. I came out of a ventilated bus and reached the pavement. I was enormously pleased to see a new shopping mall called Bagatelle which was the biggest of the country island in term of size.
I left the wonderful colourful trees and flowers of various species behind me as I entered the Mall. Inside, it was marvelous and beautiful. I found several technology shops operated by robots and a flying skate board shop which had all the products which I always wanted to have. There was a tremendous food court. I went to eat in a huge fastfood called a Mac Donald for the first time. Then I left Bagatelle and went for a stroll on the streets of Port-louis.I looked upwards and I was amazed to admire some of the highest skyscrapers I have ever seen.These were beautifully architectured with some unique shapes. I could not figure out how most of them were built.The glasses on theses skycrapers were constantly changing colour. I kept watching these Skyscrapers for some moments while people were moving in a blured motion to

    Paris becomes a model for the Grand National capital city because of its impressive public buildings, but mostly because of the work of Haussmann. Before the transformation, Paris was extremely congested, dirty and unpleasant. It was not unified and it had a lack of an effective transportation system. After Haussmann’s work, Paris becomes a model not only within France but also internationally because of its ideal environment and power.…

    I recently visited New Orleans and was mesmerized by the atmosphere of the French Quarter. It is unlike any other city I have been in and indeed the French Quarter is a city unto itself seemly separate from its entirety. Of course, I went on the ghost tours’ etcetera. But, even from the moment I saw the old buildings, the lay out of the streets, and the manner of the locals, I wondered about all those that had gone before, the history of the people that make up this place. I stood looking at the oldest building, touched its’ wall, and wondered what life and stories had past before it.…

    Then the city was a small town with very little infrastructure and little employment opportunities. There were no resorts, spas, or beach activities. Yet as I grew up so did the city, I got to witness a town become a city, and it watched me transition from a kid to a young adult. Through this unique relationship I became more optimistic about the future. Like a plant that needs nourishment to grow a town needs money.

As the city grew to new success I followed suite. I set about to understand and comprehend the world we live in.

    “And no wonder Paris, land of novelty and distraction, is the greatest city of the flanuer – that aimless stroller who loses himself in the crowd, who has no destination and goes wherever ca-prise or curiosity directs his or her steps.” These wanderers observe Paris from the inside, bringing insight on the history of this “Sin City”. The transformation of acceptation from these Parisians creates a whirlwind of foreign concepts never seen in France, or in anywhere else in the world. This country became a birthing ground for the out of the norm mind-set to flourish. Advances in a cosmopolitan attitude were rare during this time period yet the city of Paris changed drastically through its emerging social groups, culture, and limitations on the…

    In Claude Monet’s representation of Gar Saint-Lazare, it allows an observer to see through the eyes of the artist. Though this was not the “prettiest” of scenes, Claude Monet captured what he exemplifies to be not only the future of Paris, but also the future of modernity itself (A World of Art, 2010). In the city of Paris there was much more elegant sceneries in which could have been recorded by Claude Monet. The city has gradually transformed, but instead he grasped what he thought to be the heart of the new modern city. This symbolized growth in the modern world and allowed the viewer to make there own conclusion of what is to come.…

    I was like an ant in a forest of buildings. Locked in my little cab, we were driving up avenues which you cannot see the end of, and passing in front of buildings which you cannot see the top of. I couldn’t even imagine every person living in each of the windows that I could see, and my eyes were locked on every detail of every simple door, images and restaurant names. I entered my apartment on the 19th floor, another incredible fact, because I had never really lived in a house taller than three floors. At last, my family and I went to eat in a diner nearby, where I ordered quesadillas. When the food arrived, I thought that it was for all five of us but it was only for me. The size of the quesadillas was incredible and I ate only half of them in the end.…

    My first breath in New York City was quite disgusting. I was standing in the musty cellar that is known as Pennsylvania Station in the world’s capital. And as I stood there, luggage in hand, I did not realize that my life was about to change. New York City is a place like no other, it’s truly a concrete jungle. I was visiting some friends from Los Angeles; and they had allowed me to stay with them for 6 days in the Big Apple. They were staying in an apartment in lower Manhattan, so for me this meant walking from the train station through iconic Times Square.…

    "God first made Mauritius and from it, he created Paradise." This saying from Mark Twain praises the natural beauty of Mauritius. The island’s landscapes can be mesmerizing to the eyes of everyone, but Mauritius’ culture is not any less. However, it would be too simple to classify Mauritius as having one culture as so many unique and distinctive parts forms this whole. Going to its discovery can be a journey into some of the most fascinating and refined thousands year old ancestral traditions. It is made up of the different customs and traditions of those who, during the last 400 years, have settled on these shores. They all have been brought and planted on the fertile Mauritian soils by colonists from Europe, slaves from Africa, indentured laborers from India and Pakistan (before partition) and migrants from China. These people brought with them what they have been venerating in their country of origin; their tradition and cultures. This essay will take a look at how the migrants helped shaping the language, the food culture and the folklore culture in Mauritius.…
