wear at home and not putting much effort into blending in. Their trips are usually planned to the T, leaving no room for any spontaneous adventures that might come up along the way. They tend to only see the ‘must see’ tourist attractions, stay in a good hotels overall sticking to all the amenities that are similar to home. A traveller however is different. Generally speaking, a person who considers themselves a traveller, will try to immerse in the local culture as much as possible. They make an effort to learn some of the language and speak to locals to find out about the history, traditions and customs of the country. They do this not because they feel like they have to, but because they care and want to. For them, it’s not just about taking a break from everyday life, but learning and experiencing something they haven’t before. Usually they’ll try to explore the lesser known
terrorism. On the other hand, the joining into the European Union brings some cons for country. Firstly, despite the poor state of the country, it has to help other Member State, if it has some kind of problem. Secondly, prices on food for example can grow up, because of despite the European Union has a single market. Moreover, it is a challenge for national identity, because there are a large number of refugees and immigrants, who brought with another culture and customs. Also, the country can lose skilled young workers, who go to another country to live and work. To sum up, the only reason the countries are entering the European Union is they feel it makes their country stronger and better economically. This union gives them a lot of benefits, but it is necessary to obey some EU laws.
In 1968, after seven years away from the stage, he returned to live performance in a celebrated comeback television special that led to an extended Las Vegas concert residency and a string of profitable tours. In 1973 Presley staged the first concert broadcast globally via satellite, Aloha from Hawaii. Prescription drug abuse severely deteriorated his health, and he died suddenly in 1977 at the age of 42. Presley is regarded as one of the most important figures of 20th-century popular culture. He had a versatile voice and unusually wide success encompassing many genres, including country, pop ballads, gospel, and blues. He is the best-selling solo artist in the history of popular music.

To: Ms Maire Liidlein From: Kerli Neljas Date: 16th December Subject: Recommendation report about Haapsalu Introduction Haapsalu is a small, friendly and romantic town is a real summer paradise and in summer a lot of holidaymakers visit this. They come for the warm seawater, curative mud, peacefulness. A lot of people visit the resort every summer, there are many different ways to spent time there, both for tourists and locals. Old Town of Haapsalu and museums People who are interested in culture and history can visit the Old Town and museums. For example the Estonian Railway Museum, the Episcopal Castle Museum, the Läänemaa Museum and others. I think that the city itself is one of the greatest historical places. Nobody can talk about the history of Haapsalu better than the city itself. And visiting museums is a good for acquiring new knowledge, but those people who do not love history, may get bored. And all museums are located relatively far from each other.

St. Patrick's Day is now celebrated by many people throughout the world, Irish and non-Irish alike, with food, drink and all things green. Now I will show you a Saint Patrick's Day song. 8. Here are the pictures of St. Patrick's day festival. Thank you all for listening!
When people have traveled to a completely different country, then they can compare the life in their own country and the country they are visiting. It makes people see how they can enjoy their life more. Visiting other places also is very good for practicing other languages and communicating with people. Some people only travel to learn history of other regions. For some people, this is the main point for travelling, yet others try to experience the culture and visit as many sightseeings as possible. Also it brings in good money, especially when the country or an area is attractive and good weather is guaranteed.That money could be used wisely,like building new sightseeings or renovate the old ones. However, it brings us not only benefits, but also dangers. Some tourists don't respect the places they visit and they dump trash or vandalise.There is also a danger of overcrowding and epidemics.

can be a very difficult and distracting factor. For example, when you go study abroad alone, without your parents and friends, you have to be very patient, because this is unknown place for you. All of this may distract your life in future. Furthermore, studying abroad has also some disadvantages. You need money for food, living and also for traffic and travelling. You may have to go work to pay bills and use public transport. Some people can not accustomize culture of country because it is new for them. In conclusion I can say that studying abroad has a very useful and great experience. It is a big help for the people who want to practice their language. Although, studying abroad may have some disadvantages. I am convinced that people who study abroad have a perfect solution to practice their language and learn different cultures.

Whether it is regarded as vandalism or public art, street art has caught the interest of the art world and its lovers of beauty. ([http://artradarjournal.com/2010/01/21/what-is-street-art- vandalism-graffiti-or-public-art-part-i/] 14.01.18) 2. WHERE DID IT COME FROM? Some of the earliest expressions of street art were certainly the graffiti which started showing up on the sides of train cars and walls. This was the work of gangs in the 1920s and 1930s New York. The impact of this subversive culture was extraordinarily felt in the 1970s and 1980s. This cultural movement was recorded in the book The History of American Graffiti, by Roger Gastman and Caleb Neelon. These decades were a significant turning point in the history of street art – it was a time when young people, by responding to their socio-political environment, started creating a movement, taking the ‘battle for meaning’ into their own hands.

The word ,,human" comes from homo sapiens which is Latin for ,,wise man". The name itself refers to the exact reason we are special our mental capability. What does ability to think give us and how does it affect out world? Human is a social being and cannot live without expressing himself. In order to communicate clearly we have developed a vast system of symbols languages. There are over 6000 different languages in the world and each language comes with a different culture. Because of our ability to remember, humans are able to transmit information from generation to generation. Humans know their history, because we remember what we have created. Our world-view is more than what is seen to the eye. Homo sapiens is a developing species. Our body has changed and so has our mind. We understand concepts like time (past, present, future), religion, philosophy and moral behaviour. A human is curious, asks questions and finds answers

They will think so well of themselves while doing more things at once: reading and enjoying themselves in the middle of nature. People should try to understand that the Internet is benefic to our life till one point. If the line is crossed and nothing else is done all day long, then they will ruin their health and their education will be damaged too. There are so many interesting things that can be found out from books, starting on how to behave and ending with the culture, tradition, customs of other countries. Books are the eyes that allow you to travel all over the world, to conquest the territories of the unknown. To sum up, the best advice I could give to people would be to partially give up the Internet and take up a new hobby, like reading a book, which will never fail them and will always give a helping hand when it is needed.

April just because it's April, or wear shorts and t-shirts when it's barely 10 degrees in July just because it's July. The old habit of being "fashionably late" is no longer acceptable. One is always on time. However Estonians become complete opposites of themselves when they get drunk. They talk, laugh, kiss and hug non-stop! Although, Estonians have many good habits which other cultures may not have. Estonian people love and cherish their culture and history. They hold massive dance and song festivals every year. Estonians also love to work and are very purposeful and diligent at what they do. They are good friends and can be very supportive when you are in need. As for me, when I am in a foreign country and somebody asks me which nationality am I? I am always proud to say that I am Estonian.
To Protect or not Protect Minor Languages Minor language is a language that is spoken in a minor area in a territory. For example Estonian is a minor language, because it has so little amount of speakers, just over a million comparing to German that has at least 100 million native speakers. Many minor languages have been mixed together or been developed from other languages. I think that the minor languages should be protected, because with languages come with a part of culture and if we terminate the variety of cultures that have developed throughout the evolution of mankind then the world would be boring. There would be no languages to learn, no foreign songs to sing and no joy of knowing that you can speak to a foreigner in his mother tongue. Also people are more friendly and open to you if they can speak freely in their mother language. But not protecting the minor languages can also be a good thing. As we know the world is global...
Efficient initiatives to help protect the environment Just like our bodies, the environment functions best when it's in balance. Unfortunately, we're not quite there. Many of us believe that we lead lives that respect nature but our consumption habits give us away. Many little habits that seem to be sustainable are in fact polluting. Along with pollution, issues like depletion of resources, the rise of consumerism, and the "throw away" culture have led to serious issues. That being said, the fight's not over yet. Fortunately, more people than ever are both aware of and active in the protection of the environment. To protect the environment, waste management and recycling are crucial. When we recycle, used materials are converted into new products, reducing the need to consume natural resources. If used materials are not recycled, new products are made by extracting fresh, raw material from the Earth, through mining and forestry
oldest school working on the same premises was founded in Tallinn (GAG).After the Northern War (1700-1721) Estonia became a province of Russia. During that period the gentry of Baltic-German origin prevailed in Estonia. They kept estates in Estonia until 1919. Under Russian rule the Palace of Kadriorg was built and the park was laid out. The National Awakening in the middle of the 19th century brought rapid advances in the Estonian education system, general living conditions and culture. The national epic "Kalevipoeg" was published, theatre and music societies appeared and the 1st Song Festival was held in Tartu in 1869. Since then the Song Festivals have become a national tradition, being held every 4-5 years. This all lead to Estonia's independence on 24 February 1918. In June 1940 Estonia became a part of the Soviet Union. On 20 August 1991 the Republic of Estonia was restored without any bloodshed. CULTURE? National emblems
In the very southwest there are thin forests of evergreen trees. Most of the Australian trees are various kinds of eucalyptus and accacia. Some eucalyptuses are small bushes in the semideserts, some are the main trees in the savannah but the biggest grow as tall as a hundred metres and form forests in the east. Eucalyptus trees give people timber and eucalyptus oil. Of six hundred kinds of acacias the golden wattle, the national flower of Australia, is the best known. 10 . Culture The modern culture of Australia draws from many sources including native Australians, the United Kingdom and the immigration of a different range of people with the Australian gold rushes of the 1850s and the post WW II immigrants from Britain and Europe. Nowadays Australian culture is strongly influenced by western culture. Australia is one of the most urbanised countries in the world. 70 per cent
company boss etc. Everyone see on their own standpoint them give or take. Some opinions are even similar. So what's our chances in EU? I bring up six main possibilitys First, we can travel without material limits, i.e. almost in all the territory of the European Union can travel without passport and border checks In the other hand, it might be a minus too. Lot's of people emigre from their native-land to better jobs, education or smth and immigrants bring along their own culture. So it's pretty presumptive that some day there will be only European culture, where everything is equalized. Second, for personal usage everyone may buy goods country where it is cheaper. Euro is in use fifteen member states and makes it simpler, so valuta changing is not necessary anymore. Third EU citizen may live, work and study some other EU country. Over two million young people had use that opportunity. Well-know are EU programs Erasmus and Leonardo.

Continental Philosophy The term "continental philosophy" was the invention of analytic philosophers of the mid-20th century who wanted to distinguish themselves from the phenomenologists and existentialists of continental Europe. Over the last 50 years, the term has been extended to many other European movements, such as Hegelian idealism, Marxism, hermeneutics and, especially, post-structuralism and deconstruction.

I also notice some empathy for Celie. Shug was always there for her and supporting her. However, she had some problems with staying with one person. She later fell in love with a yough 19-year-old man. Her heart never fully belonged to one person, she couldn’t love and stay with only one single person. As Shug had many responsibilities, she tried to share her time between her loved ones and work etc. All in all, I consider her a strong woman who defied her low position in American culture. She Liisa-Maria Pihlak, 12B didn’t care much about what others thought about her or her preferences. There was a quote that got stuck in my head: Finally, Shug is the color purple personified. She is both red and blue simultaneously. Red represents jazz and life, and the blues’ origins are in misery and disappointment. Together, red and blue create purple. Liisa-Maria Pihlak, 12B
