Filed under: Australia — Admin @ 6:35 pm

New zealand is one of the most preferred destination in south pacific and ocenia area and if you are upto Australia then i advise you not to look back for going to New zealand.It has one of the most admirable and breathe taking sceneric view in ocenia.The capital of New zealand is Wellington inspite of Aucland being the largest city.A mere population of 4 million(4,00,000) with Currency as New zealand Dollar NZ$.Here you are prone to do lots of out door activities specially like skiing,rafting in rivers,hiking,swimming,etc. and watch dolphins and whales and other beautiful marine life.Kiwi is new zealands national animal and here you will be exposed to large variety of flora and fauna.Evergreen forests prevail here and fantastic beaches which are most preferred during summer time.

        Summer time here starts from November to april where native childrens have holidays and there is inflow of tourists.So better to book in advance because its difficult to get priority during christmas especially.Even winters are good time.South island of new zealand has high speed winds during winters.Northern new zealand is bit mild than southern part.

         Auckland was my first destination.Wellington is connected with all international flights and even auckland.There are lots of glaciers and snow filled mountains.Snow fall is heavy in winter.Ski resorts like queenstown is full in summer.75% population is christian.More information in next article.Cook mountain is the highest mountain peak in new zealand.

Swimming Pool Waterfall

Filed under: Reviews — Admin @ 2:45 pm

When making your home look good, the best way is to add some goof features to your home, such as a swimming pool waterfall in your garden. This is something, which is very cost effective and easily available to buy. They have a range of different products such as artificial rocks, artificial trees, and many other unique and extravagant products. These products may seem as they have no use in the home, but once they are assembled in your home and garden, you will think why you did not have them before. Some products like waterfalls can help you to relax and feel much better after a long tired day.

All the way to Thailand

Filed under: Asia — Admin @ 3:56 pm

Thailand

Hi, after my trip off to europe and post promotion , i and my spouse had a idea to get this lonely summer off to Thailand and pattaya beaches, off course pattaya is in thailand. We booked our tickets by flight. unfortunately of low budget this time we had to travel in Low cost carriers and opted Air Asia. But as far as my view goes, its place that matters than which way you shoot out there!

Thailand located to South-East India sharing a large border with Myanmar and also with cultural Vietnam.we landed our boardings at Phuket.Thailand is low currencied (Thai Baht) and best to go out if you specially want a medium budget one for excellent returns.So eventually we had much other things like travel, hiring vehicles, accomodations, etc. Cheap. Its capital city is Bangkok.Mostly we find people of religion buddhism there and a few minority if muslims, Hindu and christian.People are influenced upto much extent there in Thailand by buddhism.That day we stayed in a 3 star Hotel and rested as we were quite tired.We best thought to hire a Car for about 5,000 Thai bahts for whole week so we have liberty to travel wherever we want to.

We first went to Hat yai and which is very big in the southern Thai. We did a bit of shopping out there and bought some clothes and hired a tourist guide who made us saw all scenery and placs of interest. We had some energetic Thai drinks provided to us like, the famous Red Bull. At night we and my girl were surely rocking at the Discotheque. At night for 500 bahts we were in a good hotel and next day morning we went to directly pattaya beach.

Its in the Northern side of the East thailand coast. Its view is magnificient and we took a long deep breath. It handles over half a crore people all way to pattaya and has recently become a famous destination world wide. We had our rack parked up in a lot, went to a average beach hotel and got settled. Then we had our lunch, preferably wines and beers and some delicious Thai food. Thai food i must say isnt too bad. But a bit tasty to me.I got a weekly ‘pattaya mail’ and read whats up here so much in pattaya. Pattay is not only a name of beach, but to say its a whole lot of a big reagion divided formally into many parts having their own specialities. pattaya can be reached by many ways. It depends what you opt accoeding to your budget. You can go by Air, rail,bus or with a car like us. You generally see a wide range in fare of transportation in Thailand.

To tell you honestly, developing any raw heavenly beach is a foolishness. so has been done by Thailand tourism here. Its got it over developed with all luxuries. We sat under a roof and did diving,swimming and also made a ferry round. We enjoyed a lot. Then we went to our hotel and had dinners. Pure dinner i must say with truly unpackable wine and cheese and delicious yummy food. We slept much long that night with this appetite. You will find even open bear bars at the coast.

Then we went to chiang mai. we preferred to roam in chiang mai with Tuk-Tuk, a cheap transport vehicle like Indian rickshaws.Its difficult for me to atleast remember the places name of thailand. Not much there and we were off to our last spot Bangkok.

Bangkok need not to say its one of the asia’s largest travel hub and almost most airlines connect Bangkok.We saw the Grand palace,palace grounds and the dome of siloms.we had handed our car to the official branch of the owner from the place we took it,phuket.We sat in Chao phraya express boats and canal boats and enjoyed the merry ride. Bangkok is a huge centre for shopping with big malls. You can shop cheap except electronics and computers,etc. because they are much cheaper in singapore , kuala lumpur or hong kong. We roamed all day in various vehicles in Bangkok and finally tired and exhausted went to our hotel. Next day we had packed our things and were going to say good-bye to thailand. We had our tickets on Air Thai and so we went back to happy home.

Next time we plan to to on Brazil side because i havent been there much and surely wish to hang in Brazil.

What costs what- general context

Filed under: Travel — Admin @ 3:45 pm

Traveling i enjoy so i have to keep in my mind the costs that i will have to bear all way. I keep myself medium at budgets planning out things well enough with finance.

the cheapest places are mostly those which have low currency value including India. But some countries can be quite costly sometimes on tour like Thailand, USA,UK and countries of European Union. I feel there should be an International standard currency everywhere in the world so that i don’t have to bear this awful exchange rates and inequality. This will help us all i think too.
Now we got transportation means cheap as due to tight competition which reduces our traveling costs if booked well in advance. Also craze of good and cheap online booking has increased. Long journeys by Air or ship and among regional countries by trains or buses is surely cheap. Like traveling from France to Belgium or Germany or any other surrounding country, its cheap francs. No-frills airline helps a lot. You can travel between 2 small nations as cheap as Euro 80 and no one pays more than it i suppose.

Back to caribbean- Barbados

Filed under: Caribbean — Admin @ 1:39 pm

If you on your summer leisure time are off to beaches in West, the Barbados is one of the best place I say. Its not to far from Famous Florida or from Puerto Rica. Flights are no problem to reach there. Its a small curved line stretched between Puerto Rica and Venenzula in atlantic ocean in which Barbados and many other small coral Islands are there.

Barbados is nothing but corals and underwater thrilling mysteries and playing. You are gone to Barbados for no other main reason than crystal Blue water. At nights you have much things stored for you to enjoy. No worries even if you are calm couple, Barbados will be fit for you even then.

The main things you will notice at Barbados will be pure heavenly blissed beaches, Kensington Oval cricket stadium, St. Lawrence and special Fish fry on Fridays.The currency which is there is Barbados $ (B$).

TO tell you about beaches, west beaches is mild and gentle with all sort of people doing diving,swimming, getting in touch some turtles ans water sports. Its truly multi-beach place with great time to go on. Here you will find colourful reefs.

At day time there is nothing as sporty as at Kensington Oval stadium playing and watching cricket. History of this small Barbados at Plantation house.

Nights i say no better than St. Lawrence with party clubs serving beers, having nice yummy sea food, music show and all this is in huge crowds. You can be here all night with your footsteps showing salsa.

The best i suggest is going through two or three at a once location because going only way for only Barbados maybe quite expensive. So take 2-3 surrounding islands or go there only when you are near it. Don’t go too much specially for it. But its worth going any way. Don’t worry about temperature, its humid and a bit hot but mild all year out.
