    10 Things You Must Eat in Paris

    Choosing what to eat when you travel is a very important focus. Even before buying the tickets and places to stay, I usually take a look of the typical food need to try. But because I can’t spend all the time or budget on food, it is important to prioritize. The best is to try the new things that take you in the moment and remind that taste nowhere else in the world you can find it, so I made this list of the 10 things you must eat in Paris:

    1. CroissantsCroissants-in-ParisWe all love that delicious smell of a warm pastry. o when you visit France, try eating as many croissants you can get in your hands. They are perfect for breakfast and a great snack any time of the day. This makes my stomach rumble! Paris is full of places selling croissants, almost every corner. Some suggestions are: Erick Kayser, Gontran Cherrier, 1 4 3 RDT, Lemarie & Maison Grégoire. If you want to try one of the favorite elections choose the croissant au beurre, is made with pure butter and usually long and straight.

    2. ChocolateParis-ChocolatesThe French have transformed the chocolate to art, so it is in Paris that you are going to find the highest concentration of chocolate shops. This is a great chance to treat yourself sweet with the most intense tastes of chocolate in the world. Hot chocolate in Paris is also a real treat. Suggestions to find the best chocolate: Henri Le Roux, Le Chocolate Alain Ducasse, Jacques Jenin, Pralus & La Maison du Chocolate.

    3. FalafelFalalel-parisThis is something you will find listed in every guidebook of the foods you must try when visiting Paris.

The neighbourhood, the traditional Jewish quarter of Paris, is full of falafel joints, they run like a machine. Best Falalel: L’As du Falafel.

    4. Praline BriocheBrioche-praline-parisPraline Brioche is a rich yeast bread made of egg and butter. The pink things are chocolate covered hazelnuts. The pink is just sugar coating the nuts. Get this snack while you are in Paris and you won’t be dissapointed!

    5. PizzaPizza-parisIf you spend a dinner out in Paris, for that budget you can probably buy a round-trip ticket to Naples and have all the world-class pizza you could ever want.. but because of the security and turbulence, I will suggest you some good places you can eat delicious pizza in Paris: Da Vito, Maria Luisa, Pink Flamingo, La Briciola, Pizza Chic, Al Taglio & Mama Pizzeria.

    6. Caramelparis-caramelThere’s no better way to sweeten your taste with a caramel. If you have to pick only one place to do your caramel shopping, go to Jacques Jenin. You can take some gifts for your friends back home, they will love it!

    5 Reasons to Visit Santorini

    Santorini’s group of islands is consisted of Thera, Thirasia, Aspronisi, Palea and Nea Kameni (Volcanoes) islands and is located in the most southern part of the Cyclades in the Aegean Sea, 63 nautical miles north of Crete.
    The Greek Island of Santorini is considered to be one of the most stunning places in the world, a mix of towering cliffs, inky waters and whitewashed villages. Here are the 5 reasons why you should visit the most beautiful archipelago in Greece:

    1. The views

    The panoramic views are breath taking as far as the eye could see. Sunsets in Santorini are truly famous! You must get there an hour to get a good spot. You will enjoy this whether you are a romantic or a zoombie movies type, the island offers the most incredible sunset colors you will ever see.Santorini-Sunset Having a dinner with a view is another great opportunity, the scenery is surrounding you with a very romantic moment. There are many restaurants that offer “dinner with a view” such as Ambrosia, 1800 and Lauda in Oia, Archipelagos and V Lounge in Fira, and Kapari Wine Restaurant in Imerovigli.

    2. The Beaches

    Close to caldera, Thira slopes gently towards the sea, there are many incredible beaches to enjoy: the most famous are the Red Beach and Perissa Beach. You must go early before all the crowd gets there. The beaches are volcanic, not white sand, so they’re either red or black rocks, pebbles or grit, and get very hot on the feet. owever, the blistering atmosphere is unique, you can lay down on your sunbed and get a delicious greek drink.Santorini-beah

    4. The charming villages

    Santorini is unique in many ways, specially for the charming little villages perched atop the soaring cliffs. There are many Cycladic small houses of decoration at the cliff edge of the caldera, their walls are pure white colors with azure-blue roofs; they face down the cliffs about to drop into the blue sea. Thira are is mostly for tourists but most of all the villages are quiet.Santorini-Vllages5.

  • An ultimate guide to avoid Pickpockets

    An ultimate guide to avoid Pickpockets

    Long time ago, pick pocketing was the spank of many cities around the world. The skilled thieves practiced their tricks by stealing valuable things of the victims with no one around noticing. This is how everything started when the crooks cached up clothing accessories very easy to steal. Then, men and women were frightened and started tying pouches inside their clothes to avoid the temptation of the thieves. Over time, pickpockets adapted to this and learn how to inadvertently extract stuff from the trouser, waistcoat, and jacket pockets alike.

    Up in the 20th century, the american crooks started mastering the craft. Many pickpockets joined such as kids willing and able to form part of this crime that took years to perfect. By time, the main object to steal became wallets so tourists rather avoiding cash.

    Pick pocketing has been a major problem in Europe. Actually, this has turned really bad in some popular attractions.
    Many police departments declare pick pocketing as a very common complaint. But for the victim, creates a lot of worry and time to get their wallet stolen, thinking what goes inside it. 

    To avoid finding yourself in this kind of abuse, you must take some precautions that will incredibly reduce the call of the thief. In this post, I provide you expert-backed tips on how to avoid getting pick pocketed:

    1. Watch out with scamspickpucket1

    Thief can play different roles:

    • The dropped cane: A handicapped person will fall something to the floor in front of you waiting for your distraction.
    • The angry couple: Two people start fighting and talking loud calling attention of the crowd. When they don’t pay attention, that’s it.
    • The helpful stranger: A friendly person will come to you for help cleaning some lint in your jacket, he can make a trick or have a conversation with you while another person joins the talk; then a third one takes advantage of the hoopla by stealing your wallet.
    • The grabby children: While a beggar is chasing you to sell something, children clutch at your clothing.
    2. Know Where Pickpockets Like to Workpickpucket2

    There can be pickpockets everywhere, but there are some specific places where they are mostly located: Tourists attractions, tourist transportation, restaurants, bars & hotel lobbies.

    3. Don’t look like a touristpickpicjet-3

    This doesn’t mean you have to wear exactly like the locals, but you can try not looking like a tourist with a lot of money. Avoid wearing expensive jewelry or watches and maps appearing like you don’t know where you are.

    4. Keep a daily budget

    If you bring all your money it will obviously attract the eye of the thief. Try avoiding this and keeping a specific amount of cash for what you are doing that day.

    5. Secure your backpackpickpucket4

    Backpacks and other bags are the hit of the pickpockets. This is because they are not touching your body and it’s easier for them to take it or place their hand in your stuff. In case you are, you can put your valuable things at the bottom and keeping your bag in the eye all the time. If you are in a restaurant never ever place it in your back or feet.

    6. Never put your phone on the table when you are eating

    If you are of those who always need to see their phone while eating be aware that pickpockets are targeting you. When they see one, they’ll swoop in as a team, one guy acting as the distraction (selling flowers, newspapers, candy, etc.), while his accomplice grabs the phone.

  • Synchronize Your Vacation with a Cancún Swimming Competition

    Synchronize Your Vacation with a Cancún Swimming Competition

    Performing powerful lifts & throws to music – without even touching the bottom of the pool – synchronized swimming is one of the most athletic sports in the world. See for yourself during the Abierto Internacional de Sincro in Cancún, May 18-22.RMMAY131Originally known as “water ballet” when it emerged on the world stage in the late 1800s, synchronized swimming is currently enjoying a surge in popularity – especially with the Summer Olympics right around the corner. Whether you’re on a team looking to compete, an avid fan of the sport, or just curious about its unique mix of music and aquatics, the 2016 Synchronized Swimming Open in Cancún is a great chance to see the best of the best compete before Rio.RMMAY132“Water is Our World”

    Such is the motto of FINA (Federation Internationale de Natation, or International Swimming Federation), the organization sanctioned by the Olympic Committee that hosts competitions in all iterations of swimming, water polo, and platform diving. If your team or club hopes to compete in Cancún, it must be affiliated with FINA through a National Federation.RMMAY133Displays of Incredible of Beauty & Athleticism

    Popular culture hasn’t always been kind to synchronized swimming, largely due to a lack of understanding as to the sport’s actual difficulty. As a marriage of swimming, gymnastics, and dance, it requires a huge amount of strength, flexibility, and breath control, as well as a graceful sense of rhythm. Something to bear in mind as you watch a performance is the fact that the athletes are never to use the bottom of the pool to support themselves during routines – even as they lift and throw each other into the air.RMMAY134
