Travel Bucket List: North America

Hello!

I was thinking about what to blog about, and I started to think about the things that interest me, and one of those things is travelling. I wish and I hope I'll be able to travel a lót in my life. I love going to places I've never been before, and meeting new people.

I've been studying Tourism since 2009 and it helped me develop people skills and how to speak several languages fluently. In the future I hope I'll find a job that takes me to all kinds of places :)

I thought about making some sort of 'bucket list' with places that right now I really want to visit 'before I die'.

Starting off with North-America! (Initially I thought I'd write about all the places I'd want to go, until I realized that was pretty impossible..  I could just write an entire blog about places I want to go to in the US/Canada, but I'll minimalize..)

American Classics

Hi,

Yep, here I go again.. Cars!
Getting tired of it yet? No?! Good!

I wanted to post about the American classics. I found some really cool ones in these magazines I had laying around from november '10.

Starting off with the 1971 Plymouth Cuda



             Some more info about this muscle car, and see 'em have some fun with it :)

1971 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

Now this is a '73 Camaro Z28, but that sound in the end, wow..

1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1

The sound this thing produces.. is just unreal.. Check out this clip: 

1987 Chevrolet Corvette




1965 Ford Shelby Cobra 




1965 Factory Five Type 65 Coupe

Music: Reggaeton/Latin

Hi,

Here's a blog about the genres Reggaeton/Latin.

I love these genres because they light up your spirits, make you want to bust a move and dance, and it's just really rhythmical music that takes you to warm and exotic places :)
I've been learning some Spanish in school, and it's really cool to be able to sing along with the songs and actually know what they mean. Although most of the time they talk way too fast for me to even try to comprehend what they are saying.. But you get the idea..

On the 21st of June I'm going to the Daddy Yankee concert in Amsterdam with a good friend of mine. I'm so excited!!! 

So obviously, I will start with Daddy Yankee!:

Ramón Luis Ayala Rodríquez (born February 3, 1977), known by his stage name Daddy Yankee, is a Puerto Rican reggaeton/hiphop songwriter and recording artist. 

While still dabbling in music, he aspired to be a professional baseball player and tried out for the Seattle Mariners Major League baseball team. Before he could be officially signed, he was hit by a stray round from an AK-47 rifle while taking a break from a studio recording session with reggaeton mixtape icon DJ Playero. Ayala spent roughly a year and a half recovering from the wound. The bullet was never removed from his hip, and he credits the shooting incident with allowing him to focus entirely on a music career. Since then, he has sold over 10 million albums!

Here are some of his songs that I really love:
His -in my opinion- most popular song, that a lot of you will definitely know: 
Gasolina, still a major hit in all clubs!

Get up and dance, on Limbo!

Que tengo que hacer

El Amante

And many more.. :)

Don Omar


Don Omar (born William Omar Landrón Rivera, February 110, 1978) is a Puerto Rican reggaeton singer and actor. He is sometimes referred to by his nickname El Rey (The King).
