As it was briefly discussed in class, travelling has changed. The book cited some very meaningful examples, however the article did not take into account the way in which the Internet has changed how we look at the world and how we get to know it.Your assignment for today is to organize a two-week-trip for me, my wife and eight-year-old daughter to a destination in Central or South America. WE want to visit at least three cities in the country you have been assigned. You must book hotels, transport and recommend where to eat, and costs.
RULES:
- Do NOT copy and paste.
- Do NOT use a translator
- Research in more than one site.
- Explain why I should follow your recommendations.
- Further down the page there is a format on how bibliographical references should be cited. Follow it.
- Be creative and critical
- You will write an INDIVIDUAL report in WORD, and mail it in as an attachment saved as DESTINATION_LastnameFirstname; example MEXICO_OrtizRafael.
- Attachments which are not saved as instructed will not be accepted.
