My name is Maria, I live in Spain, and I love travelling.
I would like to write here as much information as possible about the places I?ve been, but that will take a looong time. Thanks for your patience!
I hope you like my pages and I hope my tips are worth for you.
Don?t hesitate to ask me. If I can help you, it will be a pleasure.

In my trips I have learnt about different cultures, languages, religions, customs, history, stories But I have also learnt that we live in a small world, that people are people here and there, that I am very lucky because I can travel and learn.
It is not only the things and people you meet during your trips, but also the travellers and friends you meet and all the things, feelings, experiences and stories that you share.
And I have learnt that a smile, a hand given, a hug are international language and that sometimes you don't need words to express feelings and that you can feel happy without anything you usually have at home.

Finally we did it!! We made true our dream of travelling all around the World. And it was absolutely worth!! We visited 9 countries, took 20 flights with 7 different airlines, visited 14 big cities and lots of small villages, took too many pictures and enjoyed without any doubt the best trip of our lifes.

We visited Mexico (Riviera Maya), USA (San Francisco, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Hawai: Oahu and Kona), Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and Nagoya), Malasia (Kuala Lumpur), Singapore, Indonesia (Bali), Emirates (Dubai), Kenya and Tanzania.

It will get some time to update information and pictures about this trip. It was a long and intense one! And we still have to put things in order. But if you are patient, and check from time to time, I will write here the newest updates I have done. Thanks!
