Do you like singing 🎤? Then you must be karaoke fun 😊
What do you know about it?

Everyone Has a Story in Life
A 24 year old boy seeing out from the train’s window shouted…
“Dad, look the trees are going behind!”
Dad smiled and a young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 24 year old’s childish behavior with pity, suddenly he again exclaimed…
“Dad, look the clouds are running with us!”
The couple couldn’t resist and said to the old man…
“Why don’t you take your son to a good doctor?” The old man smiled and said…“I did and we are just coming from the hospital, my son was blind from birth, he just got his eyes today.”
Every single person on the planet has a story. Don’t judge people before you truly know them. The truth might surprise you.

The Group of Frogs 🐸 🐸 🐸
As a group of frogs were traveling through the woods, two of them fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs crowded around the pit and saw how deep it was, they told the two frogs that they’re was no hope left for them.
However, the two frogs decided to ignore what the others were saying and they proceeded to try and jump out of the pit. Despite their efforts, the group of frogs at the top of he pit were still saying that they should just give up. That they would never make it out.
Eventually, one of the frogs took heed to what the others were saying and he gave up, falling down to his death. The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Again, the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die.
He jumped even harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the other frogs said, “Did you not hear us?”
The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were encouraging him the entire time.
Moral of the story: People’s words can have a big effect on other’s lives. Think about what you say before it comes out of your mouth. It might just be the difference between life and death.

I am finally back from Moscow, one of the most fascinating cities in the world 🌏
Do you know that...
✅ Moscow is so huge that it has the right to be the country. It’s official population is 12 million (2015), and it’s in 🔝10 most populous cities in the world. This is the population of Norway and Switzerland combined. Or Portugal and Estonia. Or Finland and Denmark. Whatever you prefer :)
✅ During its long history Moscow burned 🔥countless times. Since the houses were mostly wooden, the fire spread very quickly, and covered the entire city in minutes.
✅ The Moscow Kremlin is the the world’s largest medieval fortress

Pros ✅ and cons ❌
of city breaks
✅A city break is ideal for those who want to explore the area and take in the buzzing atmosphere.
There are plenty of
🗽🕌famous places of interests
🏛🏰museums and art galleries
🎭🤹♀️theatres
🍹🍸bars
🍽 🍷restaurants
💃🕺discos
Cities are usually tourist-friendly and as a result are easy to get around. They offer a number of options for both public 🚌🚃🚕and private 🚗🛴🚲transport.
❌There are downsides to a city break however.
If you’re feeling overtired 😓and ready for a long rest, it’s best to avoid the action-packed city break.
Most cities are extremely busy, with tourists and locals alike going about their daily business.
If you’re staying in a hotel in the centre you might also find your sleep is hindered by traffic noise🎺 – which isn’t idea for the already sleep-deprived traveller.
City holidays can also be a lot more expensive💸 than a beach hideout.
Ultimately it is up to you and what you feel you need at the time.
Are you heading off on a beach of city holiday?
