RE: AskSteemit: What has been your best vacation?

in #asksteemit7 years ago

Barcelona. It was the first trip with my now wife for her 30th. It is a fantastic city and it is really laid back. We spent the time walking around the streets talking and taking pictures of the amazing architecture. I'd say it is a pretty chill place to hang out and relax.

Sort:  

Go somewhere a little further a field. Germany is on your doorstep. How about Cape Town? There is so much to see and the best scenery in the world. It is not that expensive. exchange rate is favorable at 14 rands to the Euro. A weeks break would be long enough and even though it is winter will still be warmer than Finland's summer. If you decide on going there i will be able to help you as I know it like the back of my hand as I grew up there.

even though it is winter will still be warmer than Finland's summer.

Not true (maybe the far north of Finland north of the arctic circle).

How hot is your summer then?

In July, it is about 5 C warmer in Helsinki than in Cape Town in terms of daily average, minimum and maximum. The average daily maximum in Cape Town is about 17.5 C and about 22.5 C in Helsinki in July.

Not much can beat the Finnish summers. :)

Won't argue with facts but if you haven't been you have to go.

Cape Town sure sounds like an interesting place to visit. A friend of mine visited it a few years ago. The Western Cape province is told to be the best area of South Africa to visit. Is it in your opinion?

Yes and Natal. Game farms are good in Zulu land.

You just can't look like a tourist. Better to go with someone who knows the place.

How many times did you get your SBD pickpocketed? :P

lol.. It is only a problem if you don't look Spanish.. ;)

How do you "look" Spanish? 🙄

I mean, "not white" :P

@tarazkp sir and @acidyo sir its an awesome conversation :)

I wish I would go to Barcelona and Real Madrid to look at two places in the future, I and my wife together this place will be sharing the group together and of course with you, and Sir, it's been nice to know that you spent a lot of moments in Barcelona.
