I went to Dubai three years back and it was a trip I can never forget. I had actually  planned everything before leaving home. I knew exactly where I had to be each day because  I was suppose to be there for 5 days only. So if you’re planning your trip to Dubai, make  sure you get to visit all the worthy places like Desert Safari, Global Village, Jumeirah Beach, Wild Wadi, Burj Al Arab  and of course all the shopping malls.

Desert Safari

Your holiday won’t be complete if you haven’t visited the Desert Safari. You can experience the fascinating Desert Safari on the sand dunes with 4 wheel drive speed through the desert over the sand dunes.

Remember to keep your camera and films in your bags, as you may not get another opportunity to capture the sun setting among the sand dunes.

Montevideo carnival

Who thinks and finds that the Rio Carnival is losing its roots becoming too commercial, I have a proposition: The Montevideo Carnival!

URUGUAY-CARNIVAL-PARADE

Uruguay was long time overshadowed by its powerful neighbors Argentina and Brazil. The same thing happened to the city of Montevideo comparing with the megacities of Buenos Aires , Rio de Janeiro or Sao Paolo. This is outrageous, unfair and unjust. Uruguay is in my opinion the jewel of South America, and Montevideo is nowadays the best South American city to live in.

Nairobi is such a young city, and nevertheless so interesting and magnetic for so many tourists. It has a magnificent secret charm which made all the tourists to declare mesmerized how good and comfortable they felt in Nairobi. Despite the major dangers abounding in Kenya: malaria; terorism, crime, lions, crocodile and buffalos. But Nairobi, lieing at 1660 meters above sea level has a too cool climate for the mosquitos. About the crime, it is easy to protect yourself watching your stuff and not going out late at night.

At 1890 here was only an endless swamp, and the city was build as a pit stop on the railway from Mombassa to Kampala(Uganda). After a few years, Nairobi became the most important station on this railway, and shortly after the capital of the english East Africa. When Kenya claimed its independence in 1956, Nairobi was the first choice as the capital of this country. Since then, it grew constantly, being today with its 4 millions inhabitants one of the most important african cities.


The Fabulous City of Casablanca

Casablanca is a legend, and even more than a legend. The Hollywood movie with the title Casablanca made it already famous in 1942. Rick’s  Cafe, Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman are very familiar to any human being living on Earth.

And the legend goes further. Casablanca spells its magic to any visitor, which becomes faithful to this magnificent city. I would try to analyse the charm of this city further.  Antoine de Saint Exupery was a famous french writer and pilot which made Casablanca well known to the public during his trip to Dakar. Josephine Baker was also charmed and seduced by the city of Casablanca; Casablanca hosted a summit between Roosevelt and Churchill during the WWII.

One of the major causes for the fame of Casablanca is its colonial past and the many buildings reminding that period. Art Nouveau,Art deco, colonial style, baroc, all are very well represented in Casablanca. In many places the city is very similar to Paris.
