In the summer of "99 I had the chance to visit a friend that lives in Sao Paulo‚ Brazil. My friend from Brazil‚ Ana Radeau‚ had come to my town the previous summer and spent a semester at my high school. I had no idea of what to expect when I got there because Brazil is such a diverse country with the rainforest‚ along hundreds of miles of beach‚ and also with some of the biggest cities in the world‚ Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. But the picture I had in my mind was completely different from what

My Summer Vacation My summer started on the day I graduated. At first it was a little sad to me because it had meant that my high school years were over and I wouldn’t be able to see all my friends as much anymore.

My Favourite Holiday destination My favourite place is our granny and grandfather’s summer cottage‚ which is about 12.5 kilometres from our house. It is situated on the way to the famous Bird Sanctuary - Nalsarovar. I just absolutely love this place. It’s definitely different from the typical crowded vacation spots which many people prefer to visit. During vacation we make it a point to visit granny’s cottage for a few days to rejuvenate ourselves. We pack our bags and ask our caretaker at

My Summers in Macedonia As a child I had the privilege to spend my summer breaks in Macedonia. Both of my parents were born and raised in Macedonia‚ and they came to live in the United States prior to my birth. Macedonia was originally part of Yugoslavia‚ which was separated during the war in 1990. The food is very different from American food. I also enjoyed listening to the music throughout the country. Macedonia is such a wonderful country. I am amazed at the simplicity
