Staycations or holidays abroad.

In this times of crisis more and more people start to chose staycations, which are holidays but without moving of home, but what advantages and disadvantages have this type of holidays with holidays abroad.

One argument in favour of staycations are that this type of holidays  are very quiet apart of economic, but it can be bored, for example, imagine all the summer in your home, or in your city or village, with all your friend out.
In the other hand we have the holidays abroad who are more interesting, tired and expensive but you see a lot of places and see more culture.

All in all, I prefer a mix of them some dais of the holidays travelling and visiting places and the rest of dais I like better to relax at home.

On line Shopping Vs street shopping

Some people thinks that on line shopping are dangerous because you don´t see the people you give de money, but this type the shopping is getting bigger around the world.

In my opinion, this shopping can be really useful, because you can buy thing without moving out your home, for example if you are ill or you don´t want to go out because the rain.

But in the other hand is more easy  cheats and fool the people who buy. because this is important to buy only in reliable on line shops.

In conclusion, I prefer street shopping because I can try on clothes and I know the think I'm buying in this moment, is real.
