A. Read this article about vacations around the world. / Lea este artículo sobre
vacaciones alrededor del mundo.
Vacation time is a very important part in the life of all people in the world.
People from different cultures spend their vacations in different ways. The
number of vacation days ranges from 10 to 30, being the Europeans such as
Germans, French and Swede the luckiest for having 30 days of vacations; the
Latin American countries with a big number of vacation days are Brazil,
Panama and Peru with 25 days. The unluckiest country is China having just 10
days and being vacations not mandatory. Taking into account this aspect,
people can decide what to do and how to enjoy their vacations. Let’s see what
people from Germany, Brazil and China say about their future vacations.

going to buy some things that I need
for my house.

andres there are 5 stars hotels with nive landscape view, usually the people
