I look forward to your submission.

So this is what I actually wrote. Wanted to stretch my imagination a bit... But had to do one for the "normal" people first. Thanks for giving me an interesting topic to write about. That is usually my problem.

@nuoctuong
Even I want to participate in this.
How can I do so.
Though I know I am not lucky enough, but still will want to give it a try.

It’s easy. Just follow the instructions on the post.

Resteem. I'm in :)

Can't wait to see your entry.

  ·  6 years ago (edited)

This looks fun. I would love to try this :D

I look forward to your entry.

Interesting contests and great prizes.
If I have time I will try my luck. I do not promise to participate but obviously there is a place I want to go. :)

Tahiti?

:) NO :) Dubai :)

Dubai is really hot. All desert. They've got a few man-made structures from the oil money. Seeing your personality, I think you will hate it. There is a lot of class structure there. Meaning more benefits for the UAE's citizens, then Europeans and Americans, and then Asians are treated like second class.

I can understand what you say, but I do not really know much about DUBAI. What I want to see is the human ability, I really want to see the artificial islands and I also want to see way them build. :)

Have been living in Dubai for 4 years. You are right @nuoctuong!

Have you gone over to Abu Dhabi to live or visit, @adam.tran ?

Yea currently I’m living between those 2 cities:)

4 years is a long time!

I am approaching 4 years where I am now as well. Thinking about making a change as well.

Hi, what is the deadline for this contest?

End of day, July 21st. I definitely want to hear where your dream vacation is.

Sure anh, I hope that my entry will make you want to travel, too ^^

So amazing place

I hope you will join and write about your dream destination.

Hmmm.. I propose a new one, one that will blow you away as well, @artgirl. It's a "Dream Vacation" right?

Yeah will post one soon. 👍

Hi @nuoctuong ! How do I link to this post as per the guidelines? Sorry, I am a #newbie and a #minnow ;)

You can just copy the link at the top from the browser address bar and paste it at the bottom. That will work.

Otherwise you can try to use the markdown codes which is something like this: [ link ] (url)

I've done it, thanks!!

I hope to submit my entry soon. Thanks.

I look forward to it.

Your entry for the Gate of Heaven @ Pura Lempuyang Bali is noted, @celineaugustinee.

Thanks @nuoctuong.
