The Portuguese came here as early as 1600 AD and made it their haven. Goa owes its exotic personality to foreign influence. Goan enthusiasm, their hybrid cuisine, palm, and cashew whiskey, add to the aroma of a perfect holiday. 600 km South of Goa along the West Coast and near Trivandrum, Kerala's Capital city, lies the fishing village of Kovalam, an excellent beach resort with salubrious climate.

Coconut Palms and Casuarina plantations play hide and seek with the sun along this coastline. A perfect beach. On account of its location, sunrise and sunset can be seen on the same beach at Puri on the east coast.

Why I Love To Travel

I just love to travel. I have been lucky in that I have been able to do a lot of it in the last few years. I have been able to go to 11 countries and 30 states. When I was growing up we didn't travel very much. We usually only went to see my Grandparents in Arizona. It wasn't that my parents didn't want to travel. I guess they just wanted to save money so we did more local trips. When I was 19 I got my first taste of traveling. I went to Washington DC for the week with a friend of mine. We had such a good time. We got to see almost everything. It was an amazing trip and I knew after I returned home that I loved to travel. The next trip I went on was a trip to Canada when I was 21. I went with my boyfriend at the time. We went during the wintertime so we got to check out some of the local winter sports. We were able to check out a dog sled race. As soon as we got back from Canada, I started saving for my next vacation. I knew if I didn't make it a priority, I w

Why You Should Choose A Cruise Vacation

If you love to travel, you should consider a cruise vacation. In the past few years, there have been some mishaps aboard cruise ships, but overall, a cruise is a fun and safe vacation. The media will cover the rare cruise ship fires, but they fail to mention the many cruises that happen safely every day of the year. If you look at the price of a cruise, it is actually a very cost-effective vacation. Just compare the cost of a traditional vacation to a theme park to the cost of a cruise. If you were to take your family of four to Orlando for a visit to the theme parks, you will be paying for the hotel, you will pay for meals, and you will have to pay for admission to the theme parks. This can easily come to $500 per day or more, or $3500 for a week. Now, for a cruise, you will pay for the cruise, which can be as low as $620 per person, or $2480 for a family of four for a one week cruise. When you pay for a cruise, you are paying for not only the cabin, but the price also includes
