Love-locks

Image
Nowadays love-locks have become more popular in the most known cities, and one of them is Paris, where this order has begun. Are love-locks romantic or a menace? On the one hand, padlocks are made to protect our belongings and nothing else, but people lock them on  bridges symbolizing the love that they feel between them. Why Do people do this? After all, they don't need to do this just to show their love. On the other hand, there are padlocks that are very original and beautiful, but that doesn’t mean that putting them together with many other padlocks will look just as beautiful. Moreover, this only damages the structures of the city bridges, which is very damaging to us. In conclusion, I believe that this “tradition” should be banned in the whole world.

In addition, I have been learning two more languages since last year (French and Korean). I can keep any secret so I am a very trustworthy person. Many people told me many secrets and to this day I keep them and I couldn’t tell anyone. I hope that you will consider employing me. Please inform me if I can come to an interview.

THE BENEFITS OF VEGETARIANISM

Image
Who hasn't noticed that there are less animals on the earth? Very few people. While they make excuses for eating meat, I believe that people have to become vegetarian. First of all, eating vegetables lowers the risk of having heart diseasse, obesity, diabetes,... Moreover, if people becomes vegetarian, they could have a 8 year longer life expentancity. Secondly, vegetarians can save the planet and the animals because vegetarians only eat vegetabloes and products that comes from the animals. As a comsequence of rising animals, we spend a lot of water that can be used in one year. In coclusin, being a vegetarian is better for you, me, them and obviosly the animals.

Han Rive Seul,  officially the Seoul Special City, is the capital and largest metropolis of South Korea. Han river (or Hangang) is the major river flowing through the heart of Seoul. Indeed, spending a whole day exploring the Han river is one of the most amazing things to do in Seoul. Seoul Tower, also known as Namsam Tower, dominates the Seoul skyline and it can be seen from all parts of the city. Sitting 240 meters high on top of a mountain, this tower is the highest point in the entire city. To get to the top of the tower, you will have to ride a cable car up the mountain and then walk up to the base of the tower. Admission tickets are 12,000 won (12 euros) to go to the top.  Nothing quite compares to seeing a K-pop singer or group in person! Whether you’re into it because you’re not so secretly harboring a lifelong crush on one of the idols or you want to experience what it feels like to be among hardcore fans, it’s an experience you’re just not going to have e...
