One thing that makes Spain special is its mix of old and new, from ancient castles and historic cities to modern art and lively festivals. The food in Spain, like paella and tapas, is delicious, and there's also exciting music and dance, such as flamenco, that you can enjoy. I really want to visit Spain to see its beautiful beaches, try the food, and experience its culture. It would be amazing to explore the different regions, each with its own unique traditions and sights, and to see famous landmarks like the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona or the Alhambra in Granada

Dubai

Dubai

Dubai is an incredible city in the United Arab Emirates known for its stunning modern architecture, luxury shopping, and vibrant nightlife. It's a place where the future seems to meet the present, with towering skyscrapers like the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, and innovative projects like the Palm Islands. Dubai also offers a unique blend of cultures and a desert landscape that invites adventure, from sandboarding to camel rides. I really want to visit Dubai to experience its awe-inspiring sights, such as the sparkling Dubai Fountain and the vast Dubai Mall. It would be fascinating to explore the traditional markets, or souks, and to enjoy the local cuisine

Tijuana, Mexico

I like going to Tijuana with my family because it is close enough to drive to and spend the whole day or the weekend there but close enought to home. I have family that live there and visiting them is always fun. When we spend the full day there we go to the cemetery, beach, church, and of course eat lots of food. -ER

New York City, New York -LNC

I've been to New York City a couple times and I really love it. It is where my dad lives currently so I plan to visit a lot more. Although I'm more of a nature guy, I found the lack of nature and the towering skyscrapers to be oddly appealing to me. I don't personally know if I would live there but I have thought applied to go to univeristy there.
