MY STORY

After Colombia, my Canadian friend and I traveled to Aruba. We reached the hostel, and I called my friend who lives in Aruba whom I met in Miami a year back. She didn’t believe me when I said I was in Aruba. Next morning she came to see us, and we drove around the country in her car. It is one of the smallest countries I ever visited. We visited the beaches and later stopped at an Arabic restaurant for lunch. Next day she invited us to her restaurant where she manages for lunch. After lunch, we were back to our hostel and spent doing nothing for the whole day. Next day we met two other Canadians. We 4 got together and decided to visit the beach and have some drinks later. But, we ended up spending the whole day at the beach; beaches in Aruba are one of the clearest beaches I ever visited. The next day my Canadian friend and I walked around the neighborhood, and in the evening, we went to a club even 2 other Canadians even joined us. It was late at night by the time we were back in the hostel. Next morning my Arubian friend met us and drove us to the airport where my Canadian friend left for Canada, and I went to the Dominican Republic.
