My perfect holiday will start in New Zealand - the best country in the world. Main reason for spending holidays in New Zealand are obviously fossils. Most interesting fossils in this country are crab fossils. I don't have crab fossil yet so fossil hunting definitely will be part of the trip. Next reasons are beautiful views, nice weather, fresh air and culture in New Zealand. So I would like to visit the most interesting places and learn more about the traditions of the indigenous people. If I get tired I will take a nap on the beach or in a small boat on the ocean. After a month in New Zealand the next place I'll go is the moon. I always wanted to jump on the surface of the moon and see the view of the earth from it. If I could, I would take some moon rocks for my rocks and minerals collection. Next place is Florida. A rest in 5 star hotel in Miami sounds very good. In the hotel I'll go to spa and go swimming in swimming pools. After few days in the hotel I'll go to fossil hunting for shark teeth (specially for a Megalodon tooth) to some swamps in Florida. On the end of holidays after come back to Poland I will meet with my friends and give them some souvenirs from all places I visit and later I'll play a chess tournament.

My ideal vacation is divided into two parts: rest and sightseeing. I dream of going to an exotic island and spending two weeks there. I'd rent a beach house with a sunset view. I would spend every day on the beach. To sunbathe, swim in the sea and drink drinks. In the evenings, I would go to clubs and play with my friends. During my stay on the island, I would like to spend one day touring and getting to know the area. I would like to see how people live there, get to know their traditions and the food they eat there. Such a vacation would be the best form of relaxation for me, because I love sunbathing and swimming, but also playing with my friends. I also dream of going to Rome and Paris for a few days. These are beautiful cities that delight me from an early age. I would like to see the Louvre, Eiffel Towers, the Colosseum, St. Peter and many other sights live. The food that is the showcase of these cities also encourages me. I would like to go to these cities with my dad who also dreams of visiting and seeing it all live. I hope to be able to fulfill these dream vacation plans.

Banff is all-year sports center. In summer you can of course hike, gain peaks (a lot of exceed 4000 metres elevation), climb or do paragliding, in winter you can go snowboarding or go skiing. The region is within easy reach for people - you can travel comfortably by car on Trans-Canada Highway (100 km to Banff from an airport in Calgary), Icefields Parkway (230km) through wild nature, close to glaciers and mountain canyons, by train or on foot with breathtaking views around you.
On mountain trails you can meet often fascinating animals: roes, mooses, chamoises, deers, marmots - they have own Marmot Day celebrated on second February. But the most amazing experience is meeting... a grizzly bear!
To relax you can swim in hot springs or rent a canoe to drift on crystal clear Lake Louise.
I want to see at least three the biggest waterfalls in Rocky Mountains: Alberta (25 feet), Glacier (30 ft) and Ouzel Falls (more than 40 feet high).
But the most interesting and beautiful tourist attraction I think is Athabasca Glacier - about 6 km long, 90-300 m thick and covers 6 km². It's also dangerous because under glacier's surface are hidden very deep cracks. You can buy ticket for sightseeing by red snow six-wheel coach, specially designed for difficult conditions.
It's an amazing place connecting an endless space, harsh climate with well-developed communication infrastructure. I'd like to go there one day.

As my company I would probably choose my closest friends. I like having my favourites aside but I appreciate independence on vacation like this. Surely I’d love to spend some time with them and have a lot of interesting adventures but on the other hand spending one day by myself, wandering through Barcelona’s streets.
In Barcelona I’d love to visit FC Barcelona stadium although I’m not a fan of this club. But this football facility has had its fair share in sports history throughout decades and decades of football. Besides this important place there are plenty of spots to visit in Barcelona. For example La Barceloneta, the seaside district, La Boquieria, the food market, or Parc de la Ciutadella, beautiful park.
What convinces me to go to Barcelona is beautiful weather during summer, a lot of places to visit and warm sea which can help me to relax and enjoy my time off.

Zanzibar is a wonderful, picturesque island with a lot of beautiful beaches, views and vegetation. We would live in house on the water. While eating our meals we could looking at the fish, corals and baby shark. That will be awesome! We would spend time on the beach sunbathing, swimming and drinking cold drinks. We would also spend time active, because I really like visit local places like Mantoni Place ruins, Tazari craves or Jaws Corner. That will be great experience to see how people lives there. I would like to meet Maasai people and find out more about their culture. The most important reason why I want go Zanzibar is meeting with dolphins. I love those animals they are so smart and friendly so swimming and playing with them would be the best moments in my life.
That would be the great time with my family and I’m sure that we would have beautiful photos and unforgettable memorial from Zanzibar.

The city has been attracting me for so few years with its climate of money, casinos and hotels. The envelope makes you feel a mystery around this city and you want to change the experience of all that is offered to us. I hope that I will be able to fulfill the expectations of my dreams.

First of all, we would visit Göreme- the centre of Cappadocia which everyone has to see! There is for example the Open-Air Museum inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. We’d definitely try some local environment like Turkish Night, full of typical turkey dishes and music, or easily accessible sweets tasting.
Cappadocia is a valley, which is famous for numerous breathtaking valleys. You can book a one-day excursion around the chosen valley, and on horse or by motors, go for a worth-trying trip through well-preserved, natural Cappadocia’s sites. Many people recommend Pigeon Valley, but I think I’d choose Rose Valley and have an opportunity of admiring Turkish sunset from one of the slopes.
The incredible benefit could be also accommodation. I’d love to book a few nights in a hotel located in remote caves, but despite many hotels’ services, I wouldn’t waste my time inside!
However, the main reason I dream about Cappadocia is a chance of a balloon flight. It’s the most famous attraction there. The only disadvantage is the necessity of early-morning flight, but I think it won’t be an obstacle because the scenic sunrise would make up for that.
I think Cappadocia is a place where I would relax after a whole year and from where I would take many worthwhile memories from a perfect holiday.

There are two main reasons why we would choose this place. First of all, me and girls are really fascinated about Japanese culture. We are really into anime and manga so i think that we will perfectly fit into the atmosphere there. And the second reason is the food. I think it's very delicious and unusual. If I could eat one meal a day for a lifetime, it would be ramen!
In my opinion the biggest attraction in Tokyo is just walking around the city. The architecture is very different from the Polish one and tall buildings make a great impression. We would go to the Tokyo Tower to see the whole city from above. The view would be beautiful, especially at night.
My goal is to learn japanese in the future, so I think that such a trip will be a good start to achieve it. I heard that people in Japan are very kind and open, so it will make it easier for me to learn the language. I would like to meet some new people and maybe make new friends.

There are often videos from parties and clubs abroad and at the sight of them it makes me smile. You know it is often dangerous to party in a strange place with strangers, but I think that if you have trusted good friends, having fun in a group is not a problem.
Apart from clubs and parties, various competitions devised by the organizers and the atmosphere are great. evening bonfires, roasting sausages, dancing to the music and singing - amazing! I would like to be in such a place someday.
Additionally, there are a lot of people who will be willing to take a photo of you on instagram! There is always a problem with my parents because they don't know how to take pictures the way I would like. however, being with people your own age is totally different.
I like spending time with my family, but there are many things I can't do with my friends. so I hope that soon I will find a nice travel agency and together with my friends we will recommend discovering the world and Golden Sands!

I can imagine in a beautiful house in a very quiet place, without the crowd of people and preferably without the population. I would like to ride horses there because it is my hobby. Since I was a child, I dreamed of having my own horse stud, so spending holidays with horses would be perfect. The sun in the sky, spending time outdoors are one of the factors for a successful vacation. Delicious food, non-traditional, delicious fruit and delicious drinks! I would like to take my closest family on vacation. We would spend our time playing games, playing volleyball and organizing various tournaments. I dream of dripping in a clear and clean ocean with free swimming animals. I would like to break out of this reality and find my own interior, and I would be able to do it there, I think. In such a place it would be easy to calm down and spend time in a calm and pleasant atmosphere. Only me, my loved ones, plants and peace. Yes! This is definitely my dream vacation! May they come true someday! Zuzanna Kołodziejczyk
