We have five senses: sight‚ sound‚ touch‚ taste and smell. We rely on it‚ but it is well known that our senses can deceive us. Our perception consists of sensation and interpretation. Interpretation is provided by our minds‚ so each person has different interpretation. This can led to the problem of misunderstanding between people. For example

As geographers we must consider the “feelings evoked by a place” in those who “live there” and those “who visit”. In other words‚ we must also consider the subjective “sense of place” (Cresswell 2014). By combining

Watching the movie The Hiding Place made me realize how much better and different books are than movies. A major difference between the book and the movie was the beginning. For instance‚ the book started with the watch shops’ 100th Anniversary‚ and the movie started with the Nazis taking away the Ten Boom family’s radio. The movie skipped a lot of events such as the 100th Anniversary and introducing the family and their roles in the story. It would have been better if the movie at least showed the

A Beautiful Place Everyone has their favorite place‚ if it’s in their heads or in real life. This is about one of my favorite places. This place would be the place I’d always go to whenever I had the free time. Even if I didn’t‚ I’d take the project I was working on and finish it there. No one ever went to the place or did I tell them where I was going so I was all alone in complete solitude. I used to live on a farm‚ out where no one could see.

I’ll write about a place to travel. That is Vung Tau Sea in Vung Tau city. It is one of the interesting places to visit for a holiday. It is about 100 kilometers from HCMC and can be reached by car or motorbike. It is crowded every day with domestic and foreign visitors. There are a lot of hotels near the beach‚ so you can rent a room and enjoy the beautiful sea views. The beach is very nice with smooth sand and the sea is very clean with small waves striking the shore. This is really fantastic with
