A trip to Turkey, a life in breakfast
Among the countries I have visited, Japan and Turkey have the best breakfast experience. There is no need to say that you are rich and full. Japan is refined and elegant. For example, the fragrant fish is strung on a shelf and baked slowly in a small stone stove. Waiting is also a kind of beauty. Turkey takes the free and unrestrained route. This is the land of milk and honey. The breakfast of a small hotel is laid out, which is amazing for its richness. In the past, it was a typical Mediterranean color system, green and dripping, purple and purplish red, plus deep and shallow cheese white or yellow. Usually, the breakfast restaurant is in the place with the best view in the hotel, and the morning in Turkey is always sunny.

The final commandment of Islam is Hajj. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as well as a religious responsibility. It is obligatory for men and women whose health and financial circumstances enable them to easily go to Mecca during the month of Dhul Hijjah. Everybody, either kids or adult’s longs to visit the Kaaba—the House of Allah Almighty—at least once. It is a spiritual act that is mandatory on those who can afford to undertake it but with Halal money. It is unnecessary to perform Hajj with black money which means money earned from illegal ways. Allah (SWT) notices the intents of a person therefore if your heart isn’t pure and you are just performing Hajj for a showcase then it is of no use.

Newcastle upon Tyne: My Hero Hometown
I've been trying my hand at travel writing recently, noting that, no matter how much I love to travel to faraway places and how much I love those places, my favourite place in the world will always be my hometown. So I thought I'd write a "travel blog" as such about said town. To cement my appreciation. But it occurred to me, when I was deciding what to write about, that I'm not really entirely sure of what it is that I love about my hometown. The reason for this, probably, is that I don't fit the stereotype of a "Geordie" ie. a Newcastle resident. I don't even really have the accent, which is instantly recognisable all over the UK. I think a sense of common identity with other residents is usually what attaches people to the place they come from. But I think, for me, it's something different, and I'm going to attempt to figure out why over the next few paragraphs. I mean, I hope that this will also advertise the city to potential travellers, but I have no idea where I'm going with this.
