How I fell in love with Las Vegas

"Once Upon a Time in Vegas", "Bachelor Party in Vegas", "Long Live Las Vegas" and many other films beckon to come to Las Vegas and plunge into its atmosphere to the fullest. Luxurious hotels, casinos, nightly shows are just conducive to the fun not ending until ...


Dominican Republic for tourists: white beaches and muddy streets

I started exploring the Caribbean from the Dominican Republic. Having passed almost half of the island, I can say with confidence that this country is quite poor, and its main income is tourism and agricultural activities. Sugarcane, tobacco and coffee are grown here. That is why by ...


Sun, beach and sky-high prices: Miami through the eyes of a tourist

Seagulls, sun, sea, beach, huge cocktails, cool nightclubs, sky-high prices and people waking up only after lunch - this is real Miami. Having burnt well in the sun, we realized that another day at the beach could be dangerous for us. TO…

But according to one of the theories, New York received it thanks to the statement of George Washington: "The state of New York will become the base of our empire." I went on a tour ...


Grand Canyon: a breathtaking place

During our mini Las Vegas vacation, we decided to go to the Grand Canyon. We ordered a tour. The tour company picked us up from the hotel and drove us to a small airport, from which we flew on a corn plane. Believe me, such a long "half hour" for me never ...
