A dream is a picture or imagination in your head that appears when you’re sleeping. Usually whatever you dream about is related some way to your life and sometimes that has happened or is going to happen, it can show you your feeling about certain things. For example you can dream your profession or something what you like to dream.
My opinion:
I think dreams are wonderful because they give us thoughts and imagination in our heads. And also it is free to dream. It is so lovely!
Start.
Tuesday 14.05, the time now is 14.50 and we are still in South-Korea (Seoul Air Base Airport). We are going to Brazil and maybe we arrive, when we sleep this night and woke up tomorrow morning, so we’re already arrived in Brazil. So, we go to sleep now; “Good night”.
Here´s a picture of “Seoul Air Base Airport”
Day 1.
Wednesday 15.05, we arrived at o’clock 4.55 in the morning. We left from a plane and we saw a man, who was holding a sign in his hand and it read: “Welcome to the Brazil girls”. We were amazed and the man said that he will bring us to the hotel. Me and my friend looked at each other and we felt a little strange, because we haven’t asked anything like applying us from the airport. But after that we went to the car and we go to the hotel (Hotel Eurostars Madrid Tower). When we have arrived to the hotel, we go to put our things and also get dressed. Suddenly when I was put my stuffs, I noticed that in our room window is able to see a big and beautiful sea, what was near our hotel. And again suddenly, I wanna go to the sea. Then my friend said: “QUICKLY, we are late off the bus”. I left from the window and went with my friend to the bus.
We went by this bus
When we went to bus, the clock was 10.55 and now 11.30. We have been sitting and waited in the bus for 35 minutes, and now bus is leaving. Don’t they know that every second and minute is very valuable and important to us in here Brazil. After that we arrived at the place called “Cathedral of Brazil”, which was the old cathedral. When we looked at it, it looked like an ordinary church, what I have seen earlier. But when we walked in there, it was different, cool and really mystery, when we enter. Then I asked my friend to take picture quickly, because I wanna hear from the guide about this cathedral and I was really interested too. When we have toured, gotten pictures and know about it, so we went to the bus and went to eat. We went by bus to the restaurant (Restaurante Avenida Paul), and we ate there. After that we come back to the hotel.
When are in the hotel, the clock was 9.25. The day was a little long but we really enjoyed today and it was also nice, when we know a lot about that cathedral and the food was
good too. But now we’re “REALLY REALLY” tired that we must leave immediately to bed.

Day 2.
Thursday 16.05, the weather was nice and really warm. Today we are going to sea, what is near our hotel. We took all the necessary stuffs and went to sea.
I really love the sea, swimming and I want to hang out all day with my friend. But too bad that we can’t be here all day, because we have this-, and tomorrow day left in here Brazil. But forget it, now we go to have fun.
After the sea we went to eat pizza, when we were really hungry because we forgot eat in the morning. When we have eaten and full, we decided to go for a walk. We walk to the park, which was our front, when we were walking. We went to the swing and sat down. After the swinging we walked back to the hotel. When we are now at the hotel and doing nothing, so, it began a little bit boring. So, I decided that we could play the game. Name of the game was “Dare you do what you never have done?”. Then, we started the game. I asked my friend to chose the card. When my friend had chosen, so, she read the card and looked what the card is asking to do. The card ask to run out and shout:“I’M CRAZY”. When my friend has run out and shout, so, it was my turn. I chose the card and it read:”go knocking the other doors and run away and say that: “I’m a thief”. Then we continued playing. It was really nice game but also little stupid.

Day 3.
Friday 17.05, today is our last day in here Brazil. Tomorrow morning we come back to Finland. But today we going to have really good time in there Brazil. So, today we will go to all places where we want to go if it’s possible. But first we are going to shopping center and then we will continue our journey.
Now we’re in the mall and circling around and looking at things and goods. We saw many cute things when we were walking around the mall and we bought almost everything what we saw. We also buy gifts and some souvenirs for our family and friends, who are waiting for us now in Finland and also waiting when we get back.
We bought some candies at candy shop called “Buenos Aires”
After shopping, we held a little break and continued.. Then we went on a little longer to places somewhere and came back to the hotel soon because our flight is two hour to reach. And we need to packing gifts and our stuffs. When we have done it all, we went to bed and sleep because we have to wake up early tomorrow, when our flight is in the morning. Tomorrow we will return back to Finland.
Day 4.
Saturday 18.05, we are now at the airport and the checker is reviewing our stuffs. When the checker has checked our stuffs, then the checker said that we have so much goods that we must leave a few stuffs here. It was stupid but fortunately that they didn’t take the souvenirs because they were really expensive and we almost spent all of them about 900$. And it isn’t a small sum to us.
Before we left to the plane, we went to buy us something delicious. When we had bought something delicious, we left to plane. And then we also ate ice cream which was really good.

Friday 09.05, Now we land in Seoul. I’m really looking forward to it. And I already want to start this day by going tourism bus, what will take us to everywhere in South-Korea, like it takes us on a discovery tour and introduces us their city,- restaurant, shopping center and sight names. But first we went to the hotel (Hotel the Designer Jongro), to put our luggages and put our all stuffs into shape before we’re going to start our first wonderful day in here South-Korea. The tourism bus was waiting us. We put our stuffs fast and we went to tourism bus. We toured by bus everywhere and we all stopped at a large building called “Jongro Tower”, and it was our first stop. We watched it for a while and then we left to the bus and we continued. And next we left to the restaurant (Mister Unni). It’s a very famous restaurant in Seoul. I have always heard of it but I have never been there. We ate there. There was a really good food. When we have eaten we returned to the hotel. When we arrive at the hotel, so, me and my friend went to bed because we were knocked out and we were also really tired.
Here’s a pictre of “Jongro Tower”
Day 1.
Saturday 10.05, today’s weather was really beautiful and warm. And was perhaps 25 degrees warm. But today we’re going to the park called “Tapgolin”, which is really famous and well- known park. It isn’t wholly a park but a little bit like that. Then we went to get dressed and also took the lunch with us, so that we won’t be hungry in there. Is wonderful to be here in “Tapgolin”. “It is one of the most major attractions of Seoul. The park is an important heritage destination as it’s home to a 15 century “Buddhist Temple”. After the park we went to eat our lunch and then continued again our touring. When we were touring, the old woman who was standing near us asked us that: “Do you know anything about this “Tapgolin”. We answered: “No, we don’t”. And the old woman said that in this “Tapgolin”, has been very famous story. We were interested and we stayed there to listen the old woman will tell us about it story. The story was really good and really historical and also very sad. But then, we thanked the old woman, when we got know and hear about it story. And then we shake hands with the old woman and said goodbye.
This is a picture of “Tapgolin”
Day 2.
Sunday 11.05, suddenly the day was really ugly and it started to rain pouring. So, me and my friend stayed at the hotel, until the rain will stop. We went over to the window and watched, when will the rain stop. But then it started raining all the time and we also heard a flash sound. It was really scary. So me and my friend decide to stay in the hotel this day and play something fun in the hotel together. And we’re now playing board games. And, we’re doing well here.
Day 3.
Monday 12.05, the day is better now. The outside is a bit humid and the sky a little cloudy. Today we decided to go to the pizza (Pizzeria Mister) , which is two blocks from our hotel. And we went there by bikes. We borrowed the bikes from the hotel and we have to restore the bikes at 6 o’clock. And the clock is now 13.00. So, we must leave immediately that we don’t need to walk there. When we have arrive, we lock the bikes and we went in. When we went in, we saw a long queue, which was in front of us. Now we’re at the counter. We almost queued for 2 hours and we start becoming nerves. When we have ordered, we went to search the seats. We saw a vacant seat and we went to sit. We started eating and we were still nerves. But when we have eaten, suddenly all the angry and nerves has disappeared. Maybe it may be due of the food. And it was also really good. After eating we went by bikes everywhere and then we drove back to the hotel. The day has been a little bit edgy but in the end everything went well.
This is a picture of pizza what we went to eat at “Mister Pizza”
Day 4.
Tuesday 13.05, today is our last day when we are in here South-Korea. Tomorrow is very big day for me and my friend. Tomorrow morning we will go on a flight to Brazil. But today we will be a lot of fun together, even though this is our last day in here South-Korea. So, we have decided that today we will go to the museum (Seoul Museum of Art) by bus, what is about 20 minutes to be there if we leave from our hotel to there.
It’s an old historical museum, of which it has keep a one important secret, what no one or none of us both can know about it. And it was really interesting museum that it would have liked to stay and find out about the issue and return back to the history past. After the museum, we went back last time to the hotel and then we went to packed our stuffs and went by car to the airport. In an hour we left on a flight.

Start.
Monday 05.05, the alarm clock rings. I get up out of bed and I looked at the clock and today’s weather. I woke up 8 o’clock in the morning. The day was beautiful and very warm in here Finland. Today is the day what me and my friend have decide to travel three places which is; Germany, South-Korea and last but maybe not Brazil, whereof we’re going to tell our travel trip and write it on our blog. I went to pack my things and checked everything what is not to be missing or forgotten from me before I left. Me and my friend had agreed that we meet up in Helsinki, what can start our real trip. We go by car, which is about 1611 km trip to Berlin, so, it can be a really long drive. But it’s okay, we can sleep in the car and listen to music all the way.
Finally we have arrived. We had driven all the way almost 21 hours, which felt like we have sit in the car 1 hours. It was really weird. But when have arrived in Berlin, we left immediately to the hotel called “Mitte Hotel”; because we began a little sleepy and we were really tired of that long drive.

Day 1.
Tuesday 06.05, I woke up at 7 o’clock. I went to wash my teeth and also my face. After that, I went back on a bed. I looked around our room and it began a little bit boring. My friend was still sleeping and I didn’t want to wake her up. So, I went out to wander somewhere and waited when my friend wake up. Then I walked back to the hotel. When I was in our room, I saw a cake on the table. I went closer to the table and all of a sudden my friend appeared and said: “Happy Birthday, today is your birthday”. I was amazed and really moved. I hugged my friend and I said: “Thanks for remembered my birthday. You’re the best thing at this time what I have received, my very best friend”. And then we celebrated my birthday. After my congratulations and celebrating, we went out and search for us a breakfasts. We saw a pizzeria, and we walked in. We went to sit and the waiter came and asked us: “What can I get to you?” We looked at the list and the list was entirely in German-language. We didn’t know what to order, so, we just picked on the list something. When the waiter went, we looked at each other and laughed us. Then the waiter came back and put the pizzas on the table and said: “Enjoy your meal”. We began to eat pizza and somehow it was really good. When we had eaten and full, we decide to go for a little walk. When we were walking, we saw a big house called “St. Petrus-Kirche, which is about 400m and if we walk there, so, it would take 5 min. And it was also near our hotel. So, we walked in there and also wanted to know what is that big house. When we went there and it was a church. We went further in and we toured a while, then we went out and continued our walking. After a whole day, we took a taxi to the hotel, when we were absolutely shattered. When we came back to the hotel, we went immediately to bed.

Day 2.
Wednesday 07.05, Today there is nothing special. We ate a breakfast and talked about the places, where we go next. All of a sudden came to mind “Europe Park”. We decided to go there today.
There is nice and I like it here and a little bit same as Finland linnanmäki, but of course different too. I really love this park. Then me and my friend went to buy ice cream and we saw a girl who was sitting alone. We went closer to the girl and we started to speak german-language with words what we had learned in school. It was embarrassing and the girl said that she doesn’t understand german and the girl spoke Finnish. We were amazed and then we started talking the Finnish language. Then me and my friend asked her to be with us. The girl agreed and we all three hung out together all day. Is really nice when we had friend in here German. Ahh, and her name was Kristal.

The museum was interesting and more variety of other museums compared what I’ve been before. After a visit, we went last time to the “Pizzeria Sarah” and we ate its lovely pizza what I can never forget eating it in here Berlin. After that, we went to packed our things and going to bed for our next trip. And we had to wake up early because tomorrow morning we will going to South-Korea. And by plane.

I would like to travel to Hongkong and be there with my friend and my family. And I would like to be there maybe for 2 months or more. I want to travel there because my parents has lived and born in Hongkong and I have also seen on TV its beautiful places and watched many Hongkong documents. And that’s the reason why I want to travel there. If I were now in Hongkong, I would go immediately to shopping and discovery tour with my friend and my family, and the most where I want to go when I am there is “Celebrity Cuisine” because it is a very well-known restaurant and a first great travel destination when we arrive in Hongkong.
Its area is 1104 km² and there people talks in English and Chinese what is a relief to us when travel there and for example: if we lost somewhere or something and we don’t know the way and places then we can ask them in English and they can tell us the way, which is a good for us.
There is really warm, the weather and its sights are beautiful and there can found a lot fun to do when is in Hongkong. And I have heard from someone that they have been in Hongkong and has enjoyed, eaten and slept there really well and they want to go there again which makes me wanna go there. And I really hope that someday I can travel there with my family and my friend.

The last in our list was Japan. As usually we took a taxi to our hotel. It was a rainy day ,but still I was so exited. The next day we went to see the famous studio ghibli , where famous anime are made. As a fan I bought all kinds of books (manga) and posters. My hands were full so my friends had to carry some of my bags. After the shopping we went to this nice restaurant. The menu was full of things so I didn’t know what to choose. After the shopping and the eating we went to our hotel. The next day was as exiting as yesterday we went to try yukata. One of traditional Japanese things to wear. Almost all the girls wear it. But after that we went to Hiroshima where the famous atom bomb hit. The place was amazing and the cherry blossoms were beautiful. After we had visited Hiroshima we came back to hotel. I have to admit the time flies really fast. It was an amazing experience and I am happy that one of my dreams came true. We had the time of our lives. The last day we went to see the fireworks.
We went to London from California. We got to London at 4:25 pm. There we all went to our own ways. I decided to go shopping. The whole vacation was chill. We went to Chessington World Of Adventures. We had really good time there. We went to gym, ate good food, swam, watched movies and went shopping. The whole vacation was relaxing, and it was unforgettable. We were in London just for a week, so we didn’t do anything amazing, but it was still very fun vacation.
After that week we went to London airport and travelled back to Finland. The flight took two hours.
Okei we have just landed in Florida, Miami. The weather is very nice and sunny over here. We are going to walk to the hotel because we want to save money. Our feet are very much hurting from the flight and from this walking what we are doing. We are finally at the hotel after 7 and a half hours of flying and walking. When we walked inside we were amazed how very fancy this place was because it looked a little bit different then on the internet what we were looking at. We grabbed the keys to our room and it was huge! And then we put our stuff away and deciding where should we go to next place to see. One of us said we have a lot of things what we bought from the malls in Canada so she said how about if we just buy some little things and see just then the shops. We all agreed that would work just fine that we would have still money to South Korea. And off we went to the stores to see first all of them and then choose what we would buy and from which store. The first mall where we went to it wasn´t very good because we did not like anything or choose anything. After the first mall then we went to a second store what was a little bit better but still was not good enough. Then we went still to a third mall what we finally liked and could buy something what we liked. After all the shopping we went to eat in a restaurant which was a Italian owner and of course the food was Italian. The food was very good and went by taxi to the hotel where we all went to sleep early. The following morning of the first day in Florida we all ate breakfast what I made myself of the food what a bought from the supermarket what was close to our hotel. Seemed that both of theme liked the breakfast what made me clade. We then thinking how should we spent the rest three weeks here. We agreed that we would all pick for a whole week of activities that one of us would pick for this week. The first week it was all about seeing the whole u as much of Florida that we can. We then decided to rent a car that we could travel with and would sleep in so it need to be comfortable as it can be. It was already midday we knew that we were in a hurry that´s why we were rushing so we could get a move on to the road. We took the highway to Jacksonville but in the middle of the trip one of the tire came apart. Luckily one of us did know how to fix it and it took her twenty-five minutes. It took us still of two hours of driving to get to Jacksonville. We were pretty tired already of all the driving so we decided that we would first sleep in a small hotel and we would continue in the morning the thirty minutes of driving that we needed still to do. This time I was the driver and we finally arrived in Jacksonville. The first day we went to the local zoo and was there for the whole day Second day we were just seeing some tourist places. Third day we were looking at the cities small shops and went to a cafe. Fourth day we went a giant mall. Fifth day we to see a dog show. Sixth day we went to see some friends from facebook. Seventh day we went to local hospital to see some really sick kids who were in very bad shape because of some illness or a pain of something in the body. I drove the way back to Miami and when we finally arrived we all went to bed again. The second week we decided that we would go to Disneyland for the whole week in one of their hotels. We had fun and we got to see a lot of Disney characters what we have been watching on TV since we were little kids. After the trip to Disneyland we all want to rest and watch TV for the rest of the first day of the last week of our stay in Florida. We are tired on this day but we decided that we would swim in the different pools in the hotel inside and outside. We went to the pools and did swim there for almost two hours and just taking some sun. One of us got sunburn and had diffucult of laying down or walking a long time. We decided that we would bring her food to the room and let her rest. Second day we eat in the hotels lobby where we had our breakfast. After the breakfast we had a chat to our friends in Finland and tell them how it is going this trip. Then we went to the supermarket to first buy some food for the rest of this following days.
We left from California 8.30am. We took an airplane and went to Florida, Miami. We stayed there for five days. We went to our hotel ” Miami marriott dadeland ” . We arrived late. We were tired so we decided to go to sleep. Tomorrow is a new day.
We visited “Epcot Center” It is such a cool place. We also visited Miami Beach. It is so warm. We were sunbathing and ate ice-cream. We also swam in the ocean a lot.
From California we went to London. Our plane left from California’s airport and it was at London’s airport at 4.25 pm. From airport we had a ride to our hotel named Savoy Hotel. At the hotel we had couple drinks. After we finished our drinks we went to our hotel room and unpacked our stuff.
When we had unpacked our stuff we arranged that first day we go to separate ways. I went for pizza, and after that when it was getting dark and I went to beach to swim. After swimming I went to our room and watched London from the highest floor and got some cacao. I watched couple movies too and Henry came to our room after 9.00 pm and we watched some random channels until Daniel came. Daniel came at 10.25 pm and then we went to local McDonalds for some supper. After supper we went to bed. Next couple days we just hung around and killed time at hotels gym and pool.

Day time. I feel little bit weird because almost everything is very cheap here. It doesn’t feel right.

Night time. This day was great. Even tough we didn’t go anywhere far we still had very fun around the hotel. I would like to tell everything we did but I don’t have time for that because I have to go to sleep if I wanna be awake tomorrow. So I just say that this day was awesome and can’t wait what is gonna happen tomorrow

14.05 In the morning we packed our things and went to the airport (Seoul Air Base). The flight took over 12 hours! We were in Rio De Janeiro airport 04.55 in the morning. We ordered a taxi in the airport and went to our hotel (Eurostars Brisas do Lago), what was kinda far away from the Rio De Janeiro.
15.05 I was so tired of the flight and so was my friend. I can’t imagine how tired I am going to be when we fly to Finland. But I woke up 17.00. My friend was already up and we went to Restaurante Avenida Paulista Brasilia, what was some 2,4 km from our hotel. The weather was amazing! It was so sunny and warm.We walked to the restaurant, but after we had been eaten, we were so full that we decided to take a bus. We didn’t get to do much, because we woke up really late.
16.05 Today we woke up early and went to see the Cathedral of Brasilia. It was so big and beautiful! I really enjoyed being there.
Later, we grabbed some burgers and went for a walk in the park near to the Cathedral. After that we went shopping. I found some new and different clothes. I bought something to my family and friend also. I was sad that was our last day here. but it was okay, because we were going back to Finland tomorrow! I missed my friends and family. But I had so much fun in here, and also I am happy that I could share everything what I experienced in here with my friend who was with me.
17.05 We woke up early, because our flight went 11.15. When we finally were in Finland, I was really happy that me and my friend went to travelling. We had so much fun and we made two new friends also in Germany. I definitely don’t regret going on this trip!
Next destination Florida. We just arrived here. We stayed there about 4 days. The weather is so warm. We took a taxi to our hotel Miami marriott dadeland. We were all so tired that we went almoust straight to bed. Next day we woke up very early. We decided to go to the beach. We spent most of our day there. In the evening we decided to go to a beach restaurant. We watched the sunset. At the second day we wanted to visit a few parks. At the third day we went to Rapids Water Park. We had a fun day there. At our last day we left at the morning to our next destination.

From Finland we drove to Russia. From Russia we arrived to California, Los Angeles. After we arrived in California we took a taxi and went to hotel “Disney’s Grand California hotel and spa”. Then we left our luggage and we went to eat at a restaurant “Plan check kitchen”. We stayed in California for five days. We also visited hollywood. That is so cool place.
We also visited Disneyland and it was an amazing place. We took lots of pictures there and we went to many rides out there.
Last day on Sydney today. I’ll be going to the airport on Sydney from my hotel with a cab. The flight from Sydney to Tokyo is going to cost me 687 euros. That’s a lot for one persons flight I think. I’ll be flying over the Indonesian islands they are cool. I’ll be at Tokyo for one week and I’m going to stay at hotel named Hotel Niwa Tokyo. For 7 days the hotel costs me around 750 euros but I have enough money for that still.
On the first day I’ll take a nap and eat at the hotel. Later that day I’ll be going to shopping mall named Marronnier gate and buy some gifts for my family again. The time to get there from my hotel is little bit over 12 minutes. And I’m going to eat there at Da Peppino. The food looks very good at the restaurants website.
On the second day I’ll explore the Tokyo for few hours. First of I’ll be going to Koraku park near my hotel. It takes around 15 minutes to walk there and it’s good because I can explore the streets and seek for shops. And in the evening I’ll be at my hotel room watching TV and chilling there for the rest evening/ night.
For the last five days I’ll be exploring the city a lot and seeking places to visit.
On the very last day I’ll be heading to home. The flight to Helsinki from Tokyo is going to cost me around 750 euros. When I arrive to Helsinki my dad is going to take me to home at Helsinki, Vantaa airport. At home I’m going to tell my family what was it like to travel alone around the world for 4 weeks. When I’ve told my family about it I’m going to give them my gifts what I bought for them. They were happy and I was happy to be at home finally. I was exhausted I almost right away wen’t to my bed.
From Australia we left to our last target, Japan, Hiroshima. At the beginning I had no idea what we were going to do. First day we were just settled down and did nothing. But the second day we went too Tokyo Disneyland! It was really fun, although we had already visited an amusement park.
My favourite ride was StarJets! It had little spaceships that we sat on and then the ride begun. Whoa, what a ride! Never seen anything like that before.
In Tokyo Disneyland we also ate a lot of candy and other sweets and of course cotton candy!
We also went to see Nagisa, which is a cartoon character in a Japanese show. It was really interesting.
Then we unfortunately had to leave back home. The trip had been so amazing that I think I could have stayed there a much more longer! But the main thing is that we visited all the countries we wanted and everyone was happy and thankful for each others company, because we had so much fun. I hope we can sometimes re-build something like this again. Thank you, bye!
Now we are starting to make our way in to Mexico City, after we have packed and sorted our things. We start making our way to Mexico City after we got a rental car from Dallas, but since it is almost 6pm we are going to go to a motel on the way to Mexico City, the name of the motel is Motel 6 Laredo South in Laredo and we are going to stay there for a day or two. We will arrive to JW Marriott Hotel in Mexico City and we are going to stay there for the rest of the vacation. Our flight will leave at the 24th of May from International airport of Mexico City.

We went to airplane and we said goodbye to Canada. It’s took about 7 hours arrive to Florida. We were little tired and we take a nap in the airplane. Then we were leading to Florida, we went to took our’s baggage and we went to hotel. Hotel name was Grand Panama Beach Resort by Emerald View Management, our’s room was big. We didn’t have good enough time so we were just spending our time in hotel. We took our stuff and were talking some time. Then we watched tv and go sleeping. In the morning we wake up and we were going to Disney world. I was so exciting because I really want to visit to Disney world. It was really big there were so many kids and adult and it was wonderful. There were shop,kingdoms and parks. It’s already late so we were going back to hotel. I was tired and I fell assleep when I wacthed tv. In two weeks we went to eat at restaurant and we went famous places. Last day in Florida we spent in airplane because our friend Eva had birthday. We eat big cake and had so fun. We laughed many times ^^. We came bace to hotel and we were leaving to airport. We went to wait a taxi and we went by taxi to airport.
After the amazing time in California we were ready to go to our next country. Florida was next in the list. The hotel was near the airport , but we still took a taxi. We were really tired and sleepy. The hotel name was Miami Marriott Dadeland. The next day we woke up really early the clock was 8.30 am. Maybe it was little early but it was worth it after the breakfast we took a taxi and went to Miami beach. The one thing that we wanted to do was windsurfing and i have to admit it was scary ,but in other sight it wasn`t that scary , because when you have “nice” boys teaching you and telling you who to do it then i have to say it wasn`t scary at all. After the beach we went to eat at restaurant. The food was delicious and it was not heavy at all. 
The next day we went shopping and the city was really big that we were unable to explore the whole city in one day. It did take days until we did explore the whole city. The day was over and it was time for us to leave. Tomorrow was time to leave from Florida.
We went from Rio De Janeiro to California, L0s Angeles. We arrived there at 10:00 pm. The hotel took us from the airport to the hotel. Henry managed to fall out of the cars window, and we had to pick Henry up. I also lost my watch. After all, we got to the hotel.
In the morning Aimo went to gym, Henry met few local street gangs and I bought a new watch. In the fourth day we went to local pizzeria. The pizza was really good there. At California we went to SeaWorld and Venice Beach by bus and watched had really good time there. The time went too fast and we had to leave at 10th August.
From Rio De Janeiro we went to California, we arrived 10.00 pm and we had a ride to hotel. Henry somehow managed to fall out of the car, and we had to stop and pick him up. Daniel had bought a new watch but it disappeared at the ride. We think that the driver stole it. When we got to hotel. We ate at the hotel and then went to sleep. Next morning I went to gym. After gym I went to pool and waited for Daniel and Henry. When Daniel and Henry came back Daniel had bought a new watch and Henry had been meeting to the local street gang. The fourth day we went to a local pizzeria. At California we went to SeaWorld by buss. After SeaWorld we went to Venice Beach by another buss. We had really fun time in California but we had to leave at 10th August.
We arrived California at 10 pm. At the airport we were shopping. Daniel bought himself a new fancy watch. Luckily we had a ride to the hotel were about to settle in so that was within the hotel payment. Whilst driving I saw something interesting and reached out of the window. But somehow I fell out of the car’s window and my friends had to stop and pick me up. When we got to the hotel Daniel realized that his watch was missing. Must’ve been some very good luck. We ate first, and then went to sleep. Next morning we went our separate ways. Aimo went to the gym and Daniel went searching for a new watch. Meanwhile that I was meeting the local street gang. They accepted me as one of them. They asked if I wanted coke (Coca-Cola?) but they gave me only some flours, I guess. I went back to hotel, where Aimo and Dani were waiting for me at the pool. The fourth day we ate at a local pizzeria. At California we went to SeaWorld and Venice Beach by bus. We had nice time but we had to leave 10th August.
Canada, day 20
Day time. We are last day in Canada, so we are trying to make it fun as possible. I’m still not really sure what my friends have planned for today but I’m sure it’s gonna be fun.
Canada, day 21
Day time. Right now we are in the airplane. Destination: Florida. Flight isn’t gonna be as long as from Finland to Canada so I’m pretty sure I don,t get bored so fast. I’ve already know what we gonna do at start. I mean the day after our arriving. I don’t think we have time enough to visit anywhere at the first day.
Florida, day 2
Night time. I actually didn’t have time to write anything of our first day. Honestly there isn’t anything to tell about our first day in Florida. It was mostly the same as the first day in Canada, you know, checking the places and so on. But today we went to the Disney world. I was very excited to go there and it was fun. We are gonna go there again.
Florida, day 3
Day time. We aren’t gonna do much today. Just gonna relax in our hotel room and have fun just in hotel. Nothing interesting.
Night time. I know I said that today wasn’t gonna happen anything interesting. Well everyone can make a mistake sometime. In this hotel where we are now happened a murder. It was that time when me and my friends were watching a movie. We heard about the murder when police knocked our hotel room door, asked us to come with him and asked us questions about the body. It was little sad because we weren’t able to tell anything about the body.
Florida, day 9
Night time. We are having so much fun in here and I’m tired so I’m just gonna do this quick. We mostly have spend time in hotel because this hotel actually is very interesting place but on 6th day we went shopping. I bought very much and so did my friends too. Tomorrow we are staying in hotel… again. But what ever we still are enjoying ourselves in here.
Florida, day 15
Day time. I just woke up and realized that my birthday is very soon and that we have to celebrate it in airplane. But we agreed that we gonna celebrate it 17th day… at the same day as my brothers birthday… Not fun!
Florida, day 21
Night time. It’s midnight and our flight is in two ours and because it’s five minutes over midnight it means that it’s my birthday. Could it be any better to celebrate your own birthday in the airplane. I just wish this night would be over soon.
09.05 We woke up really early, because our flight went 9.11 in the morning. We were in South-Korea 11.55. We went to our hotel first what was quite far away from the airport. But we ordered a taxi, because we didn’t know how to use local transport. At one o’clock we were at hotel, we went outside for a walk in the Tapgolin park, what was near by. The weather was great.
10.05 I slept really long tonight, because I was tired of the flight. My friend wanted to go to the Seoul Museum of Art. She is really interested about museums. We ate at the hotel and went to the museum. We were almost the whole day in there. In the evening we went outside and took some pictures.
11.05 Today I woke up early, because I wanted to go to the Changdeokgung Palace. I took my camera also with me.
The palace was beautiful! There was some tour and they asked if we want to join and we agreed. I was glad that we went there. In the evening we were little bit hungry so I suggested that let’s go eat pizza. It was really good. We went back to the hotel. It was already ten o’clock. Me and my friend talked what we are going to do tomorrow and then I went to sleep.
12.05 Today was the day when we went to the Jongro Tower. I asked some local people how to use buses around here and they were very nice and helped us. At two o’clock we were there. We had really good time. We didn’t do much today, we just walked around and relaxed. It was fun day.
13.05 It was our last day in South- Korea. Tomorrow we are going to the Brazil! Today we went for a really long walk. We thought that we could borrow two bikes for us, but it would be to much of a trouble. So we walked. At least 10 km. I was so tired, my friend was also tired. In the evening we talked about the flight, it was going to be very long. But we had blast in South-Korea. It was really fun place.
I stayed in Motel 6 Laredo South in Laredo for a night.It was good motel to stay and it was in Laredo, there were really hot 37°C. I drove around Laredo with my hybrid car to see the dry roads, and when you were on the road, you couldn’t see anything except sand and some plants. Next day when i left, I went over the Mexico border, and started my way to Mexico City. I drove 14 h and i was finally in my JW Marriott Hotel in Mexico city. I was really tired and slept over the next day. It was great hotel and really big one. It had swimming pool and free breakfast. Bad thing was, that it were pretty far from the center of the city. Next day i was on Centro Comercial Santa Fe. It was the best shopping mall in Santa Fe and whole Mexico city. I visited there 2 times and both were full-day visit. Last day i stayed in the awesome hotel. Next day was my flight to Hawaii.
Our trip around the world started by going to Russia. We went to Russia first because flying from there to our next destination California would be cheaper. We went to Russia by car and we stayed there for one night. We stayed in a hotel nearby the airport. We walked around city and we went to a nice restaurant. We left from the hotel early in the morning.
California, Los Angeles we finally arrived. We took a taxi to our hotel Disney’s Grand California Hotel And Spa. We stayed in California five days. We went to Hollywood and it was amazing. We saw a few movie stars and we walked at the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. We took lot of pictures. We also visited the movie theather Grauman’s Chinese Theatre. We visited also in many film studios. Our next destination is Florida.
I’m going to travel to Sydney from Miami by airplane. It’s going to cost me a little bit over thousand euros to get there but it’s worth it. When I arrived to Sydney I went to my hotel named Hilton Sydney. It’s a four star hotel and it costs a lot but I have enough money. And I’m going to stay there for one week and explore the Sydney for all day long. First of I am going to go to shopping mall named World Square Shopping Center and fortunately it’s almost next to my hotel. It’s like 11 minutes to walk there from my hotel it’s nice and it saves a lot of time compared to Miami where I was sitting in a cab for like 45 minutes to get to a good shopping mall. I will buy some clothes there and some food to my room at the hotel. Next day I will go to Hyde Park next to my hotel and see what it is like. When I’ve seen the park I’am going to go to Australian Museum next to the park and explore the museum. On the third day I’m going to go shopping mall named Market City and visit shop named Game Infinity and eat there and explore for a while there. On the four last days I’m just going to explore Sydney more and more and wish that I could come there once again in my lifetime.
From Florida we left to Australia. Australia was the place I chose, and I was so excited! Finally I was on my way to Australia, Sydney. In Australia we didn’t need a hotel, because my cousins promised that we can stay at their house. I was able to choose where we could go, so I decided that we should visit Jason Coleman’s Ministry Of Dance -named school. My eldest cousin in Australia goes to that school and he is so talented and he has developed so much.
This is a picture from inside the Jason Coleman’s Ministry Of Dance.
In Australia we had so much to see, that the time went by so fast that we didn’t have time to see even nearly all. Australia was so beautiful place and every day there was so hot that we walked the streets wearing only bikini. It was scary to see all the dangerous animals, but also it was exciting. I held a snake on my shoulders and I’m proud of myself that I had enough courage to do that :D ! In Australia we had so much fun and we enjoyed the warm and sunny days.
To the end just a quick information; So we stayed at my cousins house, they moved to Australia about 5 or 6 years ago. My cousins family consists of mother, father and three children, two girls and a boy. They have two cats and a hamster.
I packed my baggage and my friends came for me at 4.30 pm with a car and we went to Helsinki-Vantaa airport. At the airport we went to check out and the plane left at 7.30. At the plane I listened music and drank some coke. Daniel slept the whole flight, and Henry passed out. The plane arrived to Rio De Janeiro at 5.25 am and went to Santa Teresa Accommodation, which was our hotel. Me and Daniel had to carry Henry to hotel because he hadn’t wake up yet.
At Rio De Janeiro we hung at beach and drunk much soda. We went to gym really often. We went to eat at almost every restaurant what there were. Daniel lost his watch but we are pretty sure that the watch were stolen.
On the first of may I will be flying to Florida, Miami. It’s going to cost me 676 euros and when I’ll be there I am going to stay there for week in a four star hotel at Miami beach. The hotel costs 5000 euros for one week to stay there. I finally arrived to the hotel and I was exhausted and tired. I went to my bed almost immediately. On the next day I wanted to go to a shopping mall. I took a cab to Miami International Mall. It takes almost 1 hour to get there from my hotel but I have a lots of time. In the mall I will visit game stop and eat at Charley’s. When I leave the shopping mall I am going to go to Miami beach to swim and hang around. I realize it’s evening and I go to my hotel and eat my supper and go to my room and watch some TV. The other days I am just going to explore shops and buy souvenirs for my family.
It was 4:15pm and I went to pick up my friends Daniel and Aimo. I drove us to Helsinki-Vantaa airport. Our plane left at 7:30pm. I drank liquor and passed out ’til we arrived Rio De Janeiro in Brazil. I woke up in our apartment, Santa Teresa Accommodation. Aimo and Dani must’ve carried me there somehow. We unpacked our packings to the apartment, but as it was a little more than 5am, we waited in our rooms. When it was 9 o’clock, we headed to the local beach. It was very close so we decided to walk. We chilled at the beach, drinking coke and sunbathing. We visited Amazon rain forests while were there. There were a lot of cool animals and stuff. We were there for three weeks. We had great time there (until Daniel lost his watch). We left 20th July and went to the airport.

I can’t wait for to get everything start.
Night time. I had very fun time today. Even tough had time only under three hours. We spent our day at the hotel to checking out all the places and stuff we can do when we are bored. We found Jacuzzi, sauna and a gym. We also had a supper at the hotel restaurant. It was really good, you should try it.
Canada, day 2.
Day time. We are so tired because of the flight. Today we are relaxing and spending time at the hotel. I’m gonna be at the gym training for three hours and then go to sauna and Jacuzzi. We had breakfast at the restaurant and I think this day isn’t gonna be so exciting like the other days are gonna be.
Night time. This day was actually really fun and I’m so tired of all that training and the sauna and the Jacuzzi were really relaxing. Now I’m gonna get some sleep so I will wake up early tomorrow.
Canada, day 4.
Day time. I totally forgot write about yesterday. We just had so much fun visiting the CN-tower. I took a lot pics of the views and they were thrilling. There was only one bad side and it was the rush. There were a lot of people at the tower. But today we were at the Niagara Falls. I took a lot of pics of there too and they were very beautiful.
Canada, day 16.
Night time. Ok, I know that I haven’t write anything for over a week but we are having very fun time at here. Today we went shopping at the Eaton Center and we are really tired. There’s really been lot of excitement for two weeks.
I waited my friend Henry at home to pick me up at 4:30 pm. I had already packed my baggage so I took it easy at home and drunk some beer. Henry came five minutes too late but it didn’t matter. We picked Aimo at 4:30 pm. Then we headed to Helsinki-Vantaa airport.
The plane left at 7:30 pm. We arrived to Rio De Janeiro at 11:25 pm. We had to carry Henry to the hotel, because he passed out in the plane. We all were really tired, so we decided to go to sleep. In the morning we woke up early and went to beach. The weather was amazing. We spent much time at beach and we ate much outside.
So, my travel started on Helsinki -Vantaa airport. My luggage weight a lot cause I have packed so much clothes and shoes whit me. I drank cup of coffee and went to my gate which was 135. My plain to New York left 6.45 and the flight time took eight hours.
day 1
Yeah, finally here! This city is so amazing. First I checked in to my hotel and went to central park. Then I went shopping and found so fab handback! After all this I was so tired that I came back to my hotel and eat some supper.
day 2
I woke up and went to eat breakfast. Everything was so deligious, especially the pankakes! I get dressed and went out. Everybody had such a rush. I checked the Empire building and The statue of liberty. Times square was fantastic! I ate there in Hard rock cafe and the food was relly good. This is my last day here and tomorrow I’m going to fly to California.
day 3
Early wake up an time to leave New York behind! Plain is going to leave 11.30. so its bit of a hurry.
I woke up 7 o’clock in the morning. It was beautiful day and today was the day when we were going to Berlin! Me and my friend planned to meet up in Helsinki and then our journey will start. We thought that it will be cool to go with a car. There is 1616 km to Berlin, so it’s going to be long ride.
We drove almost 21 hours! It was very awesome to see many countries as we drove to Germany. Like Poland, Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania. But when we were in Berlin we went immediately to our hotel, Wyndham Garden Berlin Mitte Hotel, because we were REALLY tired.
06.05 I woke up 12 o’clock, when our room service came. I was hungry so we dressed up and went to the Pizzeria Sara’s, what was almost next to the hotel. They had the best pizza ever!
When I was full I decided to go on a walk. Some 400 meters away from our hotel, there was St.-Petrus-Kirche. My friend came there to so we went inside. It was very beautiful and interesting. Our tour guide told everything about St.-Petrus-Kirche and it’s history. It was different and cool. After our tour we went to our hotel. It was already 7 o’clock in the evening! Time had gone really fast. Suddenly someone knocked on our door. My friend opened the door and there were one girl and one boy, about my age, and they were Finnish! They said that they heard that we were talking Finnish language, so they thought that they’ll come to talk with us. They were very nice and friendly! Some hours later our new friend were tired and went to their hotel room. I was really happy that we made new friends in here, Berlin.
07.05 The next day we ate at the hotel and decided to go Europe Park, with our friends. oh, by the way they’re names are Anni and Joonas. They are siblings. We had really good time in Europe Park. The weather was foggy but worm. We were almost 6 hours in there. In the afternoon, all four of us went back to the hotel and right away we fell asleep.
08.05 So it was our last day in Berlin. Tomorrow morning me and my friend will go on a flight to South Korea. But today we were going to have really good time. We were planning to visit a museum called Designpanoptiku. We didn’t know much about it but we thought as long as we are here, why not go there. It was very different museum what I have been earlier visited, but it was interesting. At the end of the day we went to the hotel to say good bye to Anni and Joonas. After that we went to bed, we had to wake up really early tomorrow. Tomorrow we were going to South Korea!
I took place on the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Dallas Park Central Northeast Hotel in Dallas, it were great hotel. This property was very clean. The staff were very helpful. I loved that the bedroom and living area were separate. It were close to very good lobster place ,Red Lobster. I visited the North park center (it is a shopping mall). It was very clean and had good stores, but it were 6 kilometers away from my hotel. I visited too in the Harry Moss Park, it was pretty unfertile. I went to Paramount strength and conditioning 3 times(it is a gym). The weather was nice and warm 28°C almost everyday. I enjoyed there for a week then i got fed up. And my trip to Mexico started, I rented a car from Dallas car rental place.
I was in bed one day and though to myself why don´t I take a trip with my friends. I got out of bed and called my two friends who have also woken up they also liked the idea of going outside of Finland. We all agreed that we will go on 15th of May. I dint´t do anything else on that day I just was looking at my things what I will take with me and excited about tomorrow.The next morning I brush ate my breakfast then I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and went down to get my bags. I was waiting for the bus what was 15 minutes late I. Finally when the bus came then he quickly drove to the airport in Vantaa. We decided to fly to Canada first we had to wait in the airport for three hours just to get the first plane what stop in Amsterdam. We were boarding the plane at 17.00 o´clock and it took two hours to get to Amsterdam. When we arrived in Amsterdam airport we went quickly to get our tickets to Canada.We all paid for our own tickets and after that we all got to call our families who were wondering did we arrive safely. After the phone call we went to the lounge waited there for two hours. Finally went to boarding and continued the journey to Canada, Toronto. It took us twenty-six hours of flying to get there and a one hour flight from Ottawa to Toronto.
From California we left to Florida. We went to Florida by an airplane. We stayed at hotel Miami Marriott Dadeland. First we ate some breakfast because we were hungry. In Florida we didn’t do anything cultural things or we didn’t go any sightseeing. We were just chilling and getting tanned at the beach. We did lots of the local activities, like played volleyball, went snorkeling and Jet-skiing. And at the hotel we also went bowling. There was lots of thing to do so we never got bored. There was also a Corpo Yoga Studio, they were offering us a yoga class by free, so we took it and did some yoga, it was really fun! The days went by so fast, that we didn’t have time to try nearly all the activities. It’s weird and also stupid when your doing something fun the time goes past so fast :D ! You feel like you missed so much to do and you don’t want to leave yet but you have to.
<– This was our hotel , Miami Marriott Dadeland.
We woke up at 7 in the morning I checked that I had everything, then I met up with my friends and we went to Helsinki-Vantaa Airport to flight to Dallas. Flight took about 30 hours it took really long we had about 4 meals per person. we also watched some movies listened to music and slept and when we finally landed in Dallas/Fort Worth International airport. It was 10th of the may we stayed at Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Dallas Park Central Northeast Hotel for about week. It was really nice hotel it had big rooms everyone had their own suites we will be going to pioneer plaza it is the largest public park in the Dallas. it will be great we have had great time for our stay in here.

This time we are going to visit four country. California , Florida , Australia and finally Japan. The plane tickets were expensive so we travelled to Moskova and from there to California. When we arrived in California we took a taxi and went to our hotel. I was really tired but the good thing was the weather was beautiful and the sun was shinning. After a short break we went to explore the whole California. First we went to Disneyland and I have to admit it was fun. It took almost a day to explore the whole Disneyland. We went to all rides but my favorite was Haunted Mansion and it was really scary. There were things that just jumped right in your face and creepy things touching your head and legs. 
After the terrifying screams and all the others rides we were exhausted and went straight to the hotel. The next day we went to newport beach and it was really relaxing. I still remember the warm sand on my feet. It was a sunny day we all were enjoying are free time together. After that we went and ate a wonderfull dinner at a really nice restaurant.
We drove by a car to Russia, because it would be cheaper to fly to California from there. In California the first day we spent by visiting an amusement park, Disneyland. It was a lot of fun! My favourite ride was Astro Orbiter. We drove many different roller coasters and rides and ate ice-cream, yam!
<– This is a picture of Astro Orbiter!
The second day in California we went shopping to Beverly Hills! We bought so many clothes and shoes that we almost couldn’t carry them, everyone of us had at least 4 pairs of shoes and 5 bags of clothes. California is so beautiful place and there is so much to see, we didn’t have time to go sightseeing, so I’m definitely going to visit there again soon.’
The third day in California we took a guided tour in Santa Monica, named The cemetery of the stars tour. It was a great overview of the cemetery and its most famous residents, for example; Vampira, John Huston, Rudolph Valentino and Tyrone Power.
<– Hollywood cemetery.
We started by waking up in our beds, did our morning routines and went to the airport in Helsinki-Vantaa. It will take about 14 hours to get there but if its a really bad weather then it can take up to 32 hours. When we arrive we all were exhausted so we instantly go to our hotel and sleep. After we all woke up it was nearly noon, so we had to hurry that we can make it to the breakfast buffet. We nearly made it to the buffet and got to eat our stomachs full, we ate and went back to our hotel room to go to the shower etc. After 1-2 we got in to a taxi that we ordered and went to the Pioneer Plaza in Dallas and see what that place is all about. After we are done with all the sightseeing we will make our way to Mexico City!

I would like to travel to Canada for three months. I would like to go with one friend. Canada is such a beautiful place to visit in the spring and fall. The weather depends on the season like in Finland. I would like to see Niagara Falls where other many people also visit.You can do a lot of activities in Canada outside and inside also. Canada is known for there ice hockey team and for it´s nature. Flying there would take 26 hours! People say the Canadas flag is easy to identify for it´s leaf and for it´s red colour. Canadians speak English but they also know how to speak French!
I would like to travel to Australia because it is a place what is a very far place to get to. I would like to travel alone and I would like to stay there for six months. The weather in Australia is very hot. When in Finland is winter in Australia it is summer. People are on the beach. Australia is most known for beaches and their opera house . I would like to go visit the zoos in Australia because they have so many kinds of different animals there.That is one of the reason why people like it there so much so they can see all kinds of different animals. Like for example the Taronga zoo. Flying to 40-50 hours!
Japan
I would like to travel to japan. But why japan ?
Because when i was just little girl i always wanted to travel the whole world but japan was the best place for me.I love everything about japan like the geisha, anime , manga and the relaxing hot spring.The place where i would go is Tokyo the capital of japan.The language is really hard but it is really a nice language to learn . And the temples are amazing they are beautiful and really big ones.Japan best sport is SUMO also Japanese martial arts such as judo, karate and kendo.It takes over years to learn martial arts.The cherry blossom knowing as the sakura blossom the pink flowers that falls from the big trees.They are also in Canada , Turkey , South Korea, India , Germany and United States.The food is amazing ramen , sushi, noodles and lots of others delicious food.
I would like to travel to North America with my parents for 2 weeks, because it would be nice experience and there would be many things to see and do. like go to amusement parks and to see grand canyon,statue of the liberty go to try restaurants and go swimming,shopping and would visit some of the states like new York,Chicago and los Angels.
I would like to travel to Thailand with two of my friends, Aimo and Henry. I would like to stay there two or three weeks, and I would go there in the winter, because in Finland the summer is warm enough but the winter is freezing, but I wouldn’t go there in Christmas, because I want to spend Christmas in Finland. Me and my friends would rent a house and a car there, because own house is nicer than a hotel. We would have a big swimming pool in our backyard. We would go often to beach and we would also go shopping couple times. I would buy souvenirs to my friends from there. We would eat every day outside, and we would go once to amusement park. It would be very relaxed vacation. We would also go often to gym. We would relax, eat well and have fun the whole vacation.

I would like to travel to Spain (yes I know it reads in the title too) for a few weeks with my best friends, Aimo and Daniel. It would be rather nice trip because in Spain there’s good food, nice beaches and the journey doesn’t take too long by plane. A perfect hotel would contain a free breakfast and a swimming pool. We’d go watch La Liga live at Camp Nou and hang around in Barcelona.

I would like to travel to Miami.
I would like to travel with my friends and family. I would stay for a month. I would like to go to Miami because I want to visit America. I would like to travel around America but I chose only one city where I would like to visit. I chose Miami because the weather is warm in there. I would like to visit in Disney World. The beaches in Miami are beautiful. Of course i would like to go shopping. I would go to every shopping mall in Miami.
I would like to go to North America with my family and or my friends because i have always wanted to go there. But i think that we would go to our hotel and unpack since nobody wants to carry or drag a bag of clothes and electronics with them. I would want to stay there for 2-4 weeks but it would be up to my family or friends and one thing is for sure, we are going to go to a Amusement park.
I would like to travel to New York with my few friends. We would stay for two weeks. There we would like to go shopping and other stuff. We would also go to see Empire state building, statue of liberty,Central park and Times Square. New York City is so amazing. There’s so much restaurants, shops and to see. I would buy so many clothes and shoes. I just love New York!
I would like to travel to Germany with my best friend Johanna. I would like to stay there for three weeks. We could stay with her cousins who live there. Germany’s capitol is Berlin. I have been there once, when we drove to Italy with my family.
The population of Germany is about 80 000 000. In Germany there are many sights where I would like to go. For example Europa-Park. It is the biggest theme park in the German-speaking countries and one of the few that is open in winter.
Also I am studying German language in school, so It would be very cool to go there. I really hope that someday I will go there with my best friend.
Here is the flag of Germany. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Germany.svg
I would like to travel to Australia. I would travel there with my family and I’d like to stay there for 6 weeks. The main reason why I chose Australia, is because my cousins moved there about 6 years ago (not sure if it’s 6), and I haven’t seen them for 2 years. I also have another reason, witch is, that there is just so warm and beautiful. In winter there can be more than 18 degrees and in summer even more than 40 degrees.
Australia has lots of animal species. Only a third of them are known. Australia is expected to survive for 300 000 animal species. 280 species of mammals are known, over 700 species of birds, 380 species of reptiles, amphibians, and 120 species of freshwater fish are about 200 species.
Australia has the world’s largest known uranium reserves and is a major producer of uranium. Australia’s three uranium mines together produce an average of 9 600 tonnes of uranium oxide a year.
Australia has participated in the Olympic Games from 1896 onwards. The first time it was representative of the Winter Olympics in 1936. Australia has hosted the Olympic Games twice, in Melbourne in 1956 and in Sydney in 2000.
I would like to visit Rome with my family and my friends. I would be there for about two weeks. I would visit Colosseum and Castel Sant’Angelo etc. The weather there is warm and in summer it’s almost 30ºC. Rome is Italys Capital. Romes population is almost 3 million so I m going to be aware of pocket thiefs. I would visit restaurant there to see if the food is way more better than Finland’s food. I would like to explore the huge city.
this is Colosseum.
I would like travel to Colorado with my family because my aunt, cousin and grandmother live there. And I never have been in USA. I want meet my relative and stay there 3 or 4 weeks. It’s had been 7 years when I had seen them. I want go in Colorado shopping, go to beautiful places and go eat in restaurant. I would like to see waterfall, Rocky Mountain and hanging lake. I want also go to Zoo. 
I would like to visit Ciudad de México ( Mexico city) in Mexico with my few friends. I would stay there as long as i get bored. The weather there is nice, its about 25 degrees. Mexico city is 2240 meters above from water. I would do sports little bit more because there is harder to breath because its so high from water, so it effects better to your condition. Mexico city is really big, so you could go to Zocalo ( middle of Mexico city) and enjoy exploring big city.
Picture of Zocalo
On this I’m gonna tell u about where i would like to travel to, with who and why.
So I would like to travel to Paris as u can see. I would travel with all of my friends. I would stay there for two weeks on July so I could celebrate my birthday in there. We would go at least to the Eiffel tower and to the triumphal arch. We also would visit many restaurants. On my birthday we would go to have fun to Disneyland. And when we would come back to our hotel room we would be so tired that we couldn’t be able to stand up. Then we would do much a lot other crazy stuff I cant pronounce. I don’t know why I usually want to go to Western Europe. I mean I also want to see Brussels and Great Britain.

I’m going to tell about me and my friend’s bus trips to Helsinki. We screwed up several times and we always had a lot of fun. When we go to Helsinki we usually go just shopping or to concert and we use there the subway or train sometimes both. One time we didn’t pay the train so we had to be careful that we don’t get caught. of course we saw the ticket inspector coming towards us. Fortunately, the train just stopped in for one stop and we jumped out immediately. We laugh like crazy monkeys just because we did not know where we are. So we jumped to the train that came next. Now I’m gonna tell another funny story. So we were going to use subway to get fast to the bust stop. Of course we went to the wrong subway line that took just the wrong place. We came in a terrible hurry to make it to the right metro and the bus. There is lot of thing what happened to us but i don’t wan to tell everything… XD Follow us on instagram: @emmakatarinah @emppuuuh
once upon a time there was a little boy named Stanley. He ran away from home because his parents was drunk all the time. He couldn’t stand it. He lived in a city and when he ran away he noticed that it was already night and he did a little camp to alley.
When it was morning he woke up at 8 am and went right to the store and bought food. He stole 200 US dollars from his parents before he ran away. He spent 25 dollars in the food. He saw police mans asking about a boy who disappeared in the evening yesterday. Stanley tried to hide from the police men but he couldn’t. He wanted to go home to his parents. And he did and tried to help his parents with their drinking problem. 
I was sleeping and my mom woke up me. She asked ” When are you going to school? Clock is eight. ” I jumped out of bed and said that i was late. I brushed my teeth, get dressed and went to downstares. I eat breakfast with hurry and check my phone. I didn’t have time to do my makeup so i just went to bus stop. I wait, wait, wait and the bus didn’t came. I call my mom and she take me to school. Now i’m in class writing this story. :)
The adventure of my life started when I was born, but I think that nobody is interested of when I was born, so I think I’ll start the day I turned 12. So, on my birthday I made my facebook profile. First i used it every day, because it was so exciting. Everybody asked me to be their friends and of course I accepted them if I knew them. I got nice presents from my friends, like always. We ate ice cream, candy, chips, and all other sweets. When I turned 13 I started cheerleading. It was the best decision of my life. Before that my hobby was football. Then I made KIK, WhatsApp and Instagram. My instagram is: Anniauroraah, feel free to follow! :) But mostly I just wanted to post some pictures, so I just writed some things of my life :D
So now the pictures c:

I’m bored so i tried to write a poem.
Sun is shining, and birds are flying.
I like travelling, but never understand what is happening.
I don’t want to open the door, just dancing on the dance floor.
My friends are saying i should pause, still waiting applause.
These miracles of life are now being found out, no reason to be proud.
I wrote this because i had time, it’s because of that i can rhyme. :3
Hello. I am Nico and today I’m telling you a story of my life. I was born in Yoloswania, a country where everyone got swag. My dad was a hunter and my mom worked at the market. We were rich and we had a nice house. But then, one day, suddenly, Aimo charged furiously towards our house and three quarters of our home got destroyed. The god wars had begun. Just in a few days the city burned down from the attacks of god Aimo and hellhound Daniel. I got invited to a god slayer group called Godslayazz. The name was pretty lame in my opinion, to be honest. The leader of the clan was Topias, he was a professional god killer. The training was rough and took long, as our city was being destroyed by two inhuman powers. But then, November the 8th, I was ready, ready to kill the gods. “Thou shalt have the greatest sword of mine, the Yolosword” said the great clan leader Topias to me. I claimed the sword and went outside. There was nothing left. The city was annihilated to the ground. Oh, yeah, there still was those fancy skeletons of burned and crushed people, though. I saw something big and flaming attacking from left. It was Daniel the Hellhound. I dodged smoothly to the right and slashed Daniel’s throat a slit which bled something black. Demonic blood I guess. It was coughing and growling angrily. It jumped quickly to me, but I countered the attack with my sword. The blade sunk in its mouth deep. A little whine and it was dead. Then I heard behind me: “Hmmph. Not bad, too bad it was the greatest soldier of mine.” I turned around and it was Aimo, standing on a shadowy platform. “Well, as my faithful hound is defeated, you’ll face me for now”, he continued. “So shall it be!” I shouted at him. The great battle started. He, as for advantage, fought one-handed. I slashed and sliced and hacked and everything, but he cold-bloodedly just blocked or dodged to the side. He started laughing; “Do you mortal fool think you could defeat me? I’m invincible”. “We might put that in a test!” said the Topias and attacked from above. He shot with his bow to Aimo’s back and threw a javelin to the leg. After he did that, he drew his Ebinsword, the legendary sword which has caused death to many, many mortal and immortal creatures. “What the fawk man!!” the great god Aimo was amazed by the skills and power of Topias. Topias was winning, but then Aimo got angry. “That’s enough you… you whatever I don’t care!” Aimo used his god-powers and Topias fell down choking. “Hah, even the best can’t win me”, Aimo said ceremoniously. “No, you shan’t destroy and kill everyone like that”, something strange said. It was the master god, Henry. “But dad”, Aimo said. “NO”, he replied. “Now go to your room”, he commanded Aimo. Aimo left. “Well… you might want me to construct your city and bring everyone alive, right?” Henry asked. I replied, “Sounds good.” And it didn’t take even 10 seconds, when everything was back to normal. “Thanks man” I said to Henry. “No problem” he replied and left. After that, I continued my training at the Godslayazz, and everyone was happy. The end :3

It’s my very first blog and I chosed to write about Ellie Goulding, because I like most of her songs and I think she is a great singer. Ellie is 26 years old singer and songwriter. I didn’t know much about her few years ago, but my sister started listening to her songs and I liked them. The most popular song is maybe “I need your love”. She has also covered Elton John’s “Your song”, which is also very good. What I like about her is that she is very unique. She isn’t my favourite singer, but I still I like her songs.
Okay, so, now i’m gonna tell you a story about adventure what i made in my head. I have a wild imagination, so you probably will not really understand.
One day i was in school like usually. In the morning i was doing what i always do: eat breakfast, feed the cat, watching TV and other stuff. But when i got home, there was a dog. I was like “what?”
I was searching our cat but i did not find it, then my brother came home with his girlfriend, then i was like “what is happening?” then suddenly i was front of our school standing with my friend and we started to climb on the roof and when we get top on the roof i asked from my friend “do you want to jump down?” and guess what? She jumped.
After that i went back to home and then our cat was there and dog was disappeared. Then i went to my room, opened my computer and went to the facebook. There was message from my mom. It read “is it fun when stuff changes without reason?”
Then i went to sleep and next day everything seemed to be alright. Our cat was eating, mom did not send me message and my brother didn’t have a girlfriend. He is not allowed to dating girls before i give permission.
The end.
So today I started writing this blog and my name is Emma. It was hard to choose finnish artist that I would write about, but I ended up to Diandra.

He sang the album in Finnish and English.

For someone travelling is not a good thing and they even are scar to get on the plane.This year we are going to work hard for this club and to get know the people around the word. As I said English club is something that you don`t want to lose.It is a big opportunity so why not to try out.The reason why i did take this club is because i love to travel and to get know new people.The thing that i like the most in this club is you can talk English with everyone and they understand you.
Hey everybody! My name is Anni, i’m 14 years old and i come from Finland. I decided to tell you about my hobbies. So, my hobby is cheerleading and that’s the best hobby in the whole wide world. I started cheerleading one year ago. First i was a base but nowadays i’m a flyer. When we practice, we usually do everything; stunts, pyramids, dancing, acrobatics and jumps. Picture of my scorpion below :) I like cheerleading so much, we practice three times a week. My favorite place is the room where we practice :D. I like acrobatics and stunts the most. I prefer basket tosses and liberties the most. (Basket toss = we jump on our bases hands and they throw us to the air and then catch us. Liberty = It also means freedom but in cheerleading it means that we stand on one leg above our bases heads). I also play piano, i started it 1,5 years ago.
My previous hobbies are orientation, dancing, football, taekwon-do, gymnastics and floorball.
I had time to do another post and i wanted to tell about my friend’s team called Borga Scooter.
Borga Scooter is a Finnish team from Porvoo. Team make’s videos about scooting and tricks. They put on videos always some cool song. Not much else what i can talk about. U can see one of the video clicking right here.
I heard this song a little time ago and I really liked it. The title says the song name and everything, but yeah, it’s ‘Firestorm’ by Far Too Loud. I would say it’s dubstep, but there are these experts who say it’s specifically electro-house. I don’t actually care which it is. I call it dubstep. I like the drops and beat of this song even as I prefer metal and stuff like that. I surely do recommend to listen to this song. Link
So i just started to do a blog. First of all i wanna tell u about this funny song: Ylvis – The Fox. It’s actually very good but chorus is little funny. The song tells that no one knows what the fox sounds like but actually if u go search it u can find fox sound. U should listen this song couple of times because at the time the song stops being funny and starts sound very good. Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jofNR_WkoCE
