LET'S GO TO...PHILADELPHIA!!!

Hi everyone!
I haven't had enough time to update my blog, I beg you pardon. I'm happy when you write some comments :) Keep on doing that!!! ♥

Perhaps you already know, but I have some news...I'm travelling to Philadelphia!!!It'll be in March and I feel so lucky. I am travelling with my friend Sara and...12 students from school. It'll be an unforgettable trip.

The USA has always been a dream. Everyone would like to travel there, at least, once in their life. People say it's so different from our European culture that you get shocked from the very beginning. I'll be able to tell you :D

Philadelphia is located in the East of the USA, next to New York, city that we'll visit for sure. One of the most important touristic attractions is the Liberty Bell. Philadelphia was the place where The Declaration of Independence took place.

And, when you say Philadelphia, everyone thinks of the film ROCKY BALBOA. Did you know? It's a good example of self-motivation. He, Rocky, did big effort to achieve his goal. His most important scene takes place in Philadelphia, running upstairs. In case you don't know, you have the video here.

To finish, remember that everyday can be the best day and that good things can happen unexpectedly. Live your life!!!

Have a nice weekend ♥

TRIP OR JOURNEY?

An eternal question is: 
What's the difference between trip and journey?

In Spanish, we say "viaje" without taking into account if the "viaje" is long or short.
Well, in English, TRIP is used when we travel short distances. It is usually used when travelling  the same day. Imagine you are at a hotel and they organize a trip to see something around. For example: "The trip to El Monasterio de Piedra was amazing!"

JOURNEY describes travelling long distances. Example: "The journey from Spain to Germany is a three-day journey. Don't you prefer the plane?"

And TRAVEL is the general word used to say "viajar".

And you, are you travelling somewhere this month?
