TOP STORIES
Chichen Itza, Mexico.

Chichen Itza is one of the seven wonders of the world. This place is made up of “cenotes”, the Kukulcan’s castle and a set of structures from the big ball game.

I want to visit Ireland one day; its capital is Dublin and its main language is English.
In this place you can walk and at night you can visit the Irish pub bars! I think they are fun!
Los Cabos, Mexico.
by Rosario Tellez.
My husband and I want to travel to Los Cabos, Baja California next year.
I quoted the accommodation and plane tickets, it’s basically a small apartment for $4, 200 pesos, the plane ticket is $2,750 pesos. We must rent a car and we are saving money to have breakfast at different places, and then we can have dinner in the apartment.
We will look for two places to visit, because I’m happy when I’m at the beach, but my husband is not so happy at the beach; maybe an iconic restaurant in town is perfect for him.
Japan, East Asia.
by Josué Hernández and Armando Guevara.
Japan is an amazing country and an island in East Asia. This nation is next to the Pacific ocean and has beautiful scenery, mountainous landscapes, imperial places, national parks, ancient shrines and temples. The weather in Japan is very cool most of the year with some hot summer days.
Tokyo is the capital of Japan and is famous for its skyscrapers, commerce and pop culture. It’s a place of contrasts, where ancient traditions meet technology. You can explore the streets of Tokyo or you can visit the Kinkaku-ji temple in Kyoto if you are looking for something more relaxing.

In this country you can eat and drink delicious things like: sushi, yakitori, yakimeshi, ramen, tea, sake, or amazake, they’re delish!
You can Experience Japanese culture at its best at a tea ceremony or soak in an onsen, or traditional hot spring bath.

New York is a place I want to visit, because there various different directors have filmed a lot of movies, such as Little Manhattan, Ghostbusters, Sex and the City, The Devil wears Prada, also, On December the Snow falls, which are some of my favorite movies.
Another reason to visit New York is I haven’t seen snow yet, and this is a great place to make this happen, of course during the winter season. This is a very cosmopolitan city
My biggest dream is to visit New York in December 2024. So, I’m saving some money for that.
The people that visit NYC can visit Central Park, Times Square, and the Brooklyn Bridge. I’ve just visited San Francisco and Las Vegas so far. My plan is to check online to find the best prices for the plane tickets! I am also looking forward to being able to practice more English during my trip.
