Passing Along the Tradition
In 1990, when I was 11 years old, my mom took me on a 10 day trip to the United Kingdom. It was life-changing. I was able to see all of the things I had read about or seen in movies, in real life; right there in front of me. The world opened up to me in ways that I’m still realizing as an adult, when I compare my perception of life on earth to others I know, who haven’t had the privilege to travel. Recently, I was being interviewed for a podcast and I brought the trip up as an example of what propelled me into a career in arts and culture. The trip was so pivotal to my future growth that I swore when my first child reached 11, I would do the same. I would take them on a 10 day trip to the UK. This summer was that year; the year I would be able to share that experience with my first born.

Bid Adieu to Virtual Christmas Celebrations
Christmas is traditionally celebrated as a season of togetherness be it with friends, family or colleagues. The pandemic, unfortunately, distanced people from each other. So, Christmas parties came to a standstill. Virtual celebrations were in full force, as we couldn’t mingle with each other in public. Well, can online Christmas parties take the place of in-person parties? I don’t think so.

The Unluckiest Statue on Earth
It is struck by lightning every year, but it attracts many v isitors. Now, whether visitors are domestic or foreign, it can provide many scenic spots for everyone, and the types of scenic spots also make tourists often dazzled. According to some statistics, the number of people who choose to go abroad to play has gradually increased. This is understandable. First of all, because the fees of many domestic attractions are too high, they have also lost their original taste. Another reason is that going to other countries can experience more cultures and customs.
