Floating in the Dead Sea


   The Dead Sea is an unbelievable wonder; the Earth's lowest elevation on land, actually more than 1,000 feet below sea level. People travel to Jordan in the middle east to effortlessly float in its waters- you actually float with out trying. It's nearly 10 times saltier than any other body of water on Earth giving natural buoyancy and rich  minerals to relax and rejuvenate not only you, but you're skin, too. The Dead Sea's ancient history is also a major attraction. Its life-span has been traced back to over 2,000 years ago, the days of Herod the Great. Beyond the Dead Sea, is an area with swimming pools and and changing rooms; a perfect spot for parties and events.

Margarita Island, Venezuela.



     Margarita is a Caribbean island of Venezuela, located at the Northeast of Caracas, the country's capital. The island is infamous for its amazing beaches. Not only are they amazing, but you can choose what type of beach you want to relax at; a beach that's crowded or isolated, with large or small waves, deep seas or shallow beaches, cold or warm water, and whether you prefer a breeze or not. After a long day of learning to surf here, soothing massages are offered on the beach. The exquisite structures of the churches and castles are an amazing sight if you value the culture. Margarita has a long and rich history connected to the sea. Fresh fish and seafood is a matter of course in all the restaurants along the coast. Lobster and oyster are specialities!


As you can tell, the carribean waters are beautifully clear and surrounded by lushious green  mountains and tall palm trees. It's truly a heavenly paradise.

Travel Bucket List Blogger

     As I was searching through bucket list blogs to inspire me, I finally found a blog that wasn't just a simple list. 'Down the Wrabbit Hole' is run by Marti Ingram. She says that she's "a teacher, a writer, a computer nerd, and a traveler (whenever possible). She has a never-ending to-do list, and one day hopes to accomplish it all!" What I found interesting about her blog is that she dividing her bucket list into catagories according to the destination. She also had a section reserved for "Personal Insights." I found this to be such a good idea- giving tips and travel inspiration to the readers is very attention catching, and considering the aspiration to travel, very hard not read them. This blogger also uses her blog as a type of advertisment for support so that she can achieve her traveling dreams.
