Italy 2001 - I went to Mantova on a student exchange type thing! while i was there i visited Venice and Riccioni, Riccione was the 'party' capital of Italy and Venice was Architecturally one of the most amazing places i have ever seen. I was escorted around Lake Garda (Lago di Garda) by an elderly guy who showed me a water plant that didn't absorb water, it can only be found on two lakes in Japan & Italy. Another place i visited was an old church near Mantova, people all over the world went there to draw on the 'sacred/miracle' ground, there was a 1 year waiting list for this and some of the greatest artist in the world visit there (see pic). The main attribute i relate to Italy is their dedication and preperation to healthy foods and drinks and lack of desire to consume beer!! (Duration 2 weeks)France 2002 - Here i visited the capital (Paris). The people were alot friendlier than
publicised. Disney Land was a major disapointmnet and the cost of inner city living was ridiculous. I ventured to Notre Dame, The Louvre Museum, Eiffel Tower and i travelled along the River Siene. The main aspect i relate to France was the shopping opportunities, the Louis Vuitton shop was two designer handbags (see pic) which shows thier desire of shopping !! (Duration 1 week)

(Duration 1 week)Africa 2006 - This is were i went with Jamillah. We went to visit her family in Z
ambia, on route we stopped in Holland, Kenya and Zimabwe. Zambia was trully the most amazing place i have ever been to. We went to Livingstone, which was founded by David Livingstone (my hero) along with Victoria Falls, which was named after our Queen. Victoria Falls was awe inspiring and i would advise anyone to visit there atleast once. I went on a water safari where i seen crocodiles & hippos and we also went on land safari, it was there i had the greatest experience of my life, our jeep was forced back by Elephants ready to stampede, it was frightening yet trully amazing to see these animals up close. The main attribute i relate to this country is how supersticious they were. (Duration 2 weeks)

(Duration 2 weeks)Ireland 2007 - This vacation was one of my favourites, we went to Dublin and travelled to where my Grandparents grew up. It was a 3 ho
ur drive fom Dublin to County Cavan, (lakeside views) and we travelled around seeing various sites and the church and school my Nan went to. We had to travel by ferry as we just found out Amelia was pregnant and couldn't fly! While there we went to the Guiness Museum, Jamesons Museum, Dublin prison where the IRA was supposedly formed and the River Liffey. One of the main things i will remember was the amount of construction work taking place, building's were going up on every corner.(Duration 1 week)

It was a nice place in terms of
architecture but for some reason the people there did not seem to like the British (i'm sure its not the only place) I don't think i'd ever go back there unless i was with my family but definately not with a group of friends/men as they seem to frown upon it. My memory of Prague will be feeling like i was in the film 'Hostel'. (Duration 4 days)
