Anyhow it would be quite an experience to walk on the moon. It is said that there is no air or water there and our weight is many times less.

during summer break of my junior year. I went on a two-week trip to Pakistan with my Pakistani class. We traveled all over Pakistan‚ from Karachi to Peshawar‚ along the South of Pakistan‚ and even to Iran! I visited places I usually saw on the television screen.
