Post One

Hey!!

Welcome to the first blogsession for this semester. 
Today's topic will be: "A country I'd like to visit".
To fulfill this task you must develop a 160 word post (as a minimum), and some of the things you can mention are:

- Which country would you like to go to? Why? - What do you know about it? - What would you like to do there? - Would you like to study/work/live there? Explain. - Upload at least 2 pictures - *IMPORTANT* Make comments on 3 of your classmates’ posts + a comment on my post.

As a guide, here's my version of the post:

A country I'd like to visit is Thailand:

I'd love to visit this country located in Asia, neighbour to the countries of Vietnam, Myanmar and Laos. Eventhough I'm not an expert in weather, I'm aware of the hot temperatures they have in Thailand, and also I have friended many thai people on my facebook so I know they're great cactus cultivators. 
My main reason to visit this country would be to visit these people I've mentioned, they've been my friends for a long time now and we've exchanged experience, plants and seeds. The visit would probably become a tour through different cities along the country stopping by the houses of the friends available at the time, exchanging presents and stories about these wonderful plants.



 I think a video can tell you more than pictures in this particular case, so here it goes! I hope this video helps you to imagine what I'm talking about.

    1. Right now, with this heat and during all this season, one watering per week should be alright!

  10. I would really like to go to Thailand too! I think is a beautiful and colorful country to travel to :), but I wouldn't like to live there, I've read that the quality of life is really low :(

  11. I'd probably never live in a place like that, because I don't like the hot temperatures. But with friends everything is better and maybe the warm weather would be something positive. The water of your picture looks very nice (green but im supose that is because all of vegetation around) to have a good time. I hope that you can go someday! cheers.
