【推荐3】Smile Every Day

Everyone wants to be happy.    1    After all, it is a busy life. We are all busy running after achievements. We have priority tasks one after another.

Do you think it is difficult to smile? Let us test. What is your favorite place to visit? When do you feel that you are the happiest person on the earth?    2    I can see you are smiling.

Like every other task in our daily life, we need to schedule time for smile as well. No matter what happens, there should be a smile on your face for most of the time.    3    A person with a smile on his face attracts more happiness toward him.

Most of us think that we will be happy when we achieve something. Do you remember the last time when you had such an achievement? Did your happiness last forever after that? No. It lasts only for a few days and you start running after the other thing to be happier.

    4    Do you notice nature along with your journey to the office? Look at the flowers and trees. They have amazing vibrations (心灵感应)to make us happy if we realize. Look at the sky. It is so wonderful. Look at the people around you. They are all waiting for a smile from the stranger. Give them yours.

Use your smile to change the situations, but do not let situations change your smile. You know many problems turn their way if they see the person smiling, so keep smiling.    5    

【推荐1】With green mountains and wide beaches — as well as ruins (废墟) from the days of the ancient Greeks and Romans — the island nation of Cyprus in the eastern Mediterranean offers a large number of eye-catching places to visit. Here are just a few.

Painted Churches in the Troodos Mountains

The Troodos Mountains, on the southern side of the island, are popular for walker and winter sports fans. But they’re also famous for a group of churches whose inside walls are covered with colorful paintings from as far back as the 11th century. From the outside, the buildings may not look very special, but step inside and almost every stone tells a story of the ancient past.

Ayia Napa

On the east coast, Ayia Napa is the island’s party capital — but that’s not all there is to do. In 2021, the Museum of Underwater Sculpture opened around 200 meters from the beach. Visitors must book with a local diving company in order to see the sculptures, of which there are more than 90. According to artist Jason deCaires Taylor, the idea of the museum is to make people think about the way that humans and nature live together.

Northern Cyprus

The Turkish-speaking northern part of the island — which has called itself an independent state since 1983 — is quieter than the south. But there is lots to see both in the back streets of Girne and Lefkosa — also known as Kyrenia and North Nicosia — as well as the ancient city of Salamis, with its 2,000-year-old outdoor theater.

【推荐2】Exploring Jaipur’s Art and Design Scenes

Still home to the royal family of Jaipur, this 300-year-old palace has lost none of its grandeur (壮观). The complex of courtyards, gardens and buildings is a mixture of Rajasthani and Mughal architecture. Among other things, the thoughtfully decorated museum houses an extensive textile (纺织品) collection, featuring rich fabrics as well as a carpet dating back over 400 years.

Anokhi Museum of Hand Printing

Situated in a restored old house, the Anokhi Museum is the perfect introduction to Jaipur’s textile industry. Information boards are excellently written, and the clothing on display is impressive. Don’t miss the on-site shop. Combine a visit with a trip to the UNESCO-listed Amber Fort, a remarkable walled castle that rises above the city and is only a five-minute ride from the museum.

Block Printing Project

Feel creative? A workshop is a great way to get a feel for the printing process. You’ll work alongside local craftsmen (工作), choosing your own blocks and colours. There are scores of companies providing the experience, but consider one of the sessions offered by the Wabisabi Project, which include a field trip and black tea to keep that creative energy flowing.

Jawahar Kala Kendra Centre

Just outside the Old City, Jaipur’s most important cultural centre was built to preserve Rajasthan’s rich heritage and master craftsmanship. Showing a wide range of both traditional and contemporary art, the space houses six galleries, as well as a museum, a library and an open-air theatre with programmes from plays to Indian folk dance. It also hosts its own theatre festival.

【推荐3】Travelling as a father and daughter is more than sightseeing — it’s about seeing the world from each other’s point of view.

Colorado Springs, Colorado

If you and your dad are the outdoorsy types, Colorado Springs is ideal for dusting off those hiking shoes and hitting some of the most beautiful part of the Front Range. Explore the iconic Garden of the Gods, where red sandstone is sharpened into striking towers. Head to the famous Pike’s Peak to test your courage and take in some of the best views in Colorado.

After the adventure, visit a pub to celebrate your successful trip as a perfect complement to a long day outdoors.

Las Vegas, Nevada

Whatever you fancy on a vacation, Las Vegas has it, making it a perfect destination for fathers and daughters looking for a place that will keep them busy until they board their flight home. Just visit the big-name casinos (赌场) like the Venetian and Caesar’s Palace, or pop into one of the many A-list shows for world-class entertainment options.

Museum-goers will be spoiled for choice, to dive into the history of organized crime at the Mob Museum, or walk among historic signs at the Neon Museum.

Austin, Texas

With arich culture, Austin is great for a barbecue-appreciating, eclectic-music-loving father-daughter duo (搭档). The “Live Music Capital of the World” has more than 250 music venues featuring everything from country and rock to electronica (电子乐). If you have wide-ranging music tastes, make your way to the Red River Cultural District, where institutions invite cutting-edge indie, rock, and hip-hop artists to the stage.

You’re bound to have an appetite after rocking out so hard, so get a protein boost there. Smoking beef, tasty sausages and snacks are anything but ordinary.
