Different Types of Vacation


Mount "Bromo" in East Java, Indonesia

Everyone in the world would need a vacation after doing activities and daily routines from Monday to Friday. People usually take advantage of the vacation on weekend to visit the places which they like together with family or relatives.
There are five different types of vacation:
  1. Sport vacation: The type of vacation that the activity is filled by exercising the body. The choices can be variety, such as playing basketball or indoor soccer with friends, ride a bike around, or just relaxing on board gliding skate. I always ride bycicle at morning weekend with my family to the square, because at weekend is usually crowded.
  2. Nature vacation: The type of this vacation invites us to dare to adventure in the wild. Although it seems a bit extreme but the nature of holiday can be a fun vacation. I've climbed the mountain in one of my city, the name of the mountain is Mount Bromo. This mountain is very famous in my country, even many tourists who knew it too much because the mountain has an exotic beauty.
  3. History vacation : The type of this vacation is carried out by surround the historic places and has a cultural value. Venues can vary. Ranging from museums to monuments of struggle. I have visited national monument in the capital, it is a huge monument. If we want to rise to the top of the monument we must take the elevator. We can see the natural beauty from the above, and we can know the history of the republic of Indonesia's independence.
  4. Water vacation: It's kind of a special vacation for us to make the beach and water park as a place to vacation destinations. In addition, we also can play in the sand beach and enjoy the sunset. There is “Watu Ulo beach in my city, called Watu Ulo beach because there is a long snake-shaped rock.
  5. Urban vacation:  it is the type of urban children's vacation, it is easy for hanging out at the mall, foing to coffee shop, and playing games arcade or movie theater. If there is spare time, I usually go to the mall with my friends. We are not just shopping there, but we also can play anything there.

Conversation Club

 Thursday, june 21, 2012

One of my favorite places to visit on campus is conversation club. It is located in Kansas Union at the basement floor. It is open from Monday to Friday at 10.30 am up to 03.20 pm. We don’t need to show our KU card to get into conversation club. It is also close to the Fraser Hall, so we only need about five minutes to go there. I often like to take a short walk over there to join conversation with native speaker if I don’t have a class. When I get there, I always see people in different countries join this activity. Some of them are making conversation club to improve their speaking in English and get free Wifi overthere. This is the best place on campus to improve my ability about English. There are some member  from AEC that will help us to converse everything in English Language, and we can socialize to different people with different culture. I often meet people that are trying to prepare their english language. When I get there, I always come with my friends to join this conversation club. I have to use this chance well because not everyone can go to America to study English. I love doing this conversation because it has many advantages for me. Conversation club become my favorite place in Kansas University because it not only improve our speaking in English, but also we can make good relationship with the other people around the world who study in Kansas University. So, what are you waiting? Join this conversation club and improve your English language...
