KITEBOARDING

  The Kiteboarding Adventure.

 

Kiteboarding (commonly refered toy as kite boarding, sky boarding, and kitesurfing) is an adventure watersport that consists of using a large steerable kite to pull yourself around on a board on top of the water. The kites are controlled through the bar and lines that connect to your harness, which is worn around your midsection. The kite can be flown specific patterns to generate power, and can even be used to jump high in the air. And when we say jump, we really mean it. Professional kiteboarders can jump 50 or 60 feet high and can easily float for hundreds of feet when the conditions are right. That's nearly 10 seconds of air time! 

You might be saying, "Yea, but they need to be really strong and have built arms to do that!". Thankfully, that is a common misconception. The harness that you wear takes most of the brunt of the force, while your arms are free to steer the kite quite effortlessly. In other sports such as wake-boarding, you are required to hang onto the bar with all you're might in order to perform your tricks and ride. However, in kite-boarding, the power of the kite is directed straight to the hook on your harness which is near your center of gravity and allows you to use your body as leverage against the kite. This takes the load off your arms, which are used for steering, powering up, and de-powering the kite. When you pull the bar towards you it adds power, when you push the bar away you decrease power. 

The kiteboarding equipment also offers several safety releases, which can be used to kill power in case of emergencies. The freedom that kiteboarding provides, while also having the ability to be safe and effortless, allows you to ride in most large bodies of water that have a steady breeze. Like a sailboat you can go any direction you want except directly into the wind. If you want to go upwind you can tack back and forth at about a 45 degree angle to the wind. 

Kite Boarding Waterstart. 

 

To begin kiteboarding the rider dives the kite in the direction he wants to ride to generate power and get up on the kiteboard. This is called the waterstart. Riding or skimming on the water is referred to as planing. To begin a waterstart, the kiteboarder points his kiteboard slightly downwind or chases the kite. After getting up on the kiteboard the kiteboarder turns upwind to avoid de-powering the kite by moving downwind to quickly. 

The kiteboarder is constantly working to channel the pull of the wind at an angle such that he or she is moving perpendicular to the wind direction. If done successfully the kiteboarder is staying upwind. This is one of the first skills a new kiteboarder must learn. Later, by putting kite and board skills together the kiteboarder can actually work upwind. From there the host of turns (called transitions), moves and tricks seem to be endless with pros and amateurs constantly pushing the envelope. 

Antiquated Kiteboarding Equipment.

 

Traditional kites are referred to as C-kites because of their C shape. Yes, you can learn on a c-kite but BEWARE there are drawbacks. Not to mention that you will have to buy two c-kites to get the wind range of one bow or SLE kite. C-kites tend to offer only a 20-30% de-power range which means if you lose control of the kite you will suffer 70-80% of the consequences. To be fair, many advanced and pro-kiteboarders choose to use c-kites because of specific flying characteristics that are not advantageous to the beginning kiteboarder. Wait to buy until after you learn! Would you buy a car without test driving it? Let's not jump the gun with kites either! There are many many different kinds of kites, bars, lines, boards and safety systems to choose from. Factors like what conditions you will be riding in, your weight and skill level all determine which kite is best for you. Your qualified kiteboarding instructor can be of definite help in qualifying which kiteboarding set-up is best for your needs. 

About the Kiteboards.

 

For instructional purposes we use Litewave Wing and Spleene kiteboards. We have found that these kiteboards are easier for people to get up and ride. Plus, because they are big and long and wide, less power is required to get the kiteboarder up and moving. The school has a range of sizes depending on the kiteboarder's weight, abilities as well as the wind speed. Some kiteboards are similar to wakeboards with the fins moved out to the rails for improved tracking while riding on the edge. This type of board is referred to as a twin tip or bi-directional board because either end of the board can be in front depending on the direction of travel. 

Other kiteboards look more like a surfboard with foot straps. Directional boards, as these are called are generally easier to ride than twin tips (esp. in light to mod. wind) because the fins are deeper and the volume of the board requires less power to support the kiteboarder's weight. Experienced windsurfers often find directional style boards much easier to get their first ride on because the shape and feel of the board are similar to a windsurf board.

 

Kiteboarding Harnesses.

 

Seat Harness: A seat harness has wrap-around and full-bottom support with leg loops. Seat harnesses are the most popular for beginning kiteboarders. 

Waist Harness: The waist harness is a Wrap-around support with spreader bar fits on the kiteboarder's waist. 

Impact Harness: Waist harness with a complete impact vest on top to protect the kiteboarder's chest, ribs and spine. 

Boardshorts Harness: Seat harness integrated into a pair of boardshorts. These are second most popular for beginning kiteboarders

Kiteboarding Safety Equipment.

 

Helmet: We suggest you buy a helmet which reflects the value of your head. If you prize your head don't buy a cheap helmet! 

Sunglasses: Polarized to reduce glare off the water and UV sun protection. Also use straps to keep'em on and a floating device in case they come off! 

Impact Vest/Personal Flotation Device: It's good to have flotation when kiteboarding in deep water. Advanced Kiteboarders often where impact vests to protect their ribs when learning tricks. 

Booties: Getting a bad cut on your foot is a good way to end up on the beach watching your friends have fun. Kite Flyline Knife: Can be used in an emergency to cut kite lines.

 

How To Get Started Kiteboarding and Kitesurfing.

 

Taking lessons with a qualified instructor is a must and you can improve the amount of progress you achieve in your first lesson if you follow these simple steps.

STEP 1 Get a Trainer Kite and Video

 

The best thing to do first is to buy or rent a trainer kite or try an activity into any Travel and Tours company, and the instructional video to get the basics down ( if you don't want to wait don't worry, we have taught many people to kiteboard who had never flown a multi-line kite before). The trainer kite will teach you the controls, a basic understanding of the wind window, and how to generate power. The video is especially valuable because it will introduce you to concepts and terminology involved in kiteboarding that will allow you to move through the lessons efficiently while retaining more valuable information. 

STEP 2 Ride a Board

 

If you haven’t already, try out any sort of a board sport: snowboard, surfboard, wakeboard, skateboard or balance board. If you can’t ride a board now it will be twice as hard to learn to ride a board on water while flying kite. When you have relative board skills you can concentrate more on flying the kite. 

If you can't get your homework done before you come down you will most likely learn slower. Those who take these first steps to prepare before they get here consistently get up and ride sooner than those who don't. 

STEP 3: Intro Kiteboarding Lesson

 

Next, is the first three hour kiteboarding lesson, in which you will learn the safety issues and systems, setup of the kite, launching and landing, the wind window and power stokes, water relaunching, self rescue and body dragging. At this point if you like to learn on your own, and don't mind the "walk of shame" back upwind, then you have the foundation skills to build on. Many decide that the convenience of boat support and the presence of an instructor are far too valuable to pass up. Often times those who have experience flying the trainer kite get their first chance to get up on the board because of the time saved by advancing through the lesson rapidly. 

STEP 4: Waterstart Kiteboarding Lesson and Beyond

 

After the first hour kiteboarding lesson you will have a basic understanding of how to setup, launch and fly a kite. The second lesson is the an hour waterstart lesson and beyond, where you go out the Air Boat with a radio helmet and kites. Now we'll take those skills onto the water and work on body surfing, directional dragging, advanced kite control and water-starts. Once riding and later staying upwind, the learning curve accelerates VERY quickly. Many of our students who do 4 or more lessons finish with their first jumps, riding toe side and transitions. 

Why Should I Take Kiteboarding Lessons?

 

Safety for yourself and the public. The huge kites used in kiteboarding are very dangerous in the hands of a person lacking instruction. Most spectators don't realize how much power a kite can generate. There’s a better chance you will stick with the sport. Many people try to teach themselves or learn from friends and end up quitting due to lack of thorough instructions and adequate safety. Kiteboard lessons may be expensive but kites and their accompanying equipment cost even more. Beginner kiters innocently thrash the gear they learn on so why not use the school’s instead of your own? Taking a lesson may allow you outgrow beginner gear and when you’re ready to buy you can jump into the intermediate gear. 

Kiteboarding lessons are lead by certified instructors who strive to help create independent and safe riders. An experienced instructor will have knowledge, patience, and an ability to communicate. Each of these are essential to a safe learning environment. In the end, after saving yourself and innocent bystanders from possible kitemares, saving your friendships with other kiteboarders and saving time and money by learning and buying the right gear.

FLYBOARD

 The Flyboard Adventure.

 

Have you ever wished you could fly like a superhero? Or swim like a dolphin? At Boracay Adventures Inc. we like making wishes come true! The Flyboard is what you’ve always been dreaming of. It is a water activity that takes you to the next level, in your quest for adrenaline, like no other adventure activities can.

Having the Flyboard, or rocket boots as we like to call them, strapped to your feet allows you to go up to heights of 30 feet in the air and dive under the water an shoot straight out again, exactly like a dolphin. Flyboard is an activity anyone can learn and only taking 5 – 10 mins. The experienced Flyboard instructors will train you before and during your experience and we guarantee you will fly.

Description

 

The Flyboard is the newest extreme sport! It is an accessory that attaches to a PWC (Personal Watercraft) which gives the Flyboard propulsion through air and water. The propulsion is routed through the primary nozzle that attaches to the feet of the Flyboard user. Despite its intuitive use, the Flyboard is none the less an extreme sports gear to practice with great vigilance.

How Does It Work?

 

The PWC provides all of the propulsion for the Flyboard. Using a set of unique and patented adapters, inventor Franky Zapata of Zapata Racing, turned an ordinary watercraft into a Water Sports Sensation. The thrust from the PWC is routed through a long hose up to the Flyboard where a rider can divert and control that thrust to create any type of movement he/she desires. All of the thrust developed from the PWC is routed through the hose, so the PWC just follows behind the rider in trail giving you the freedom to go anywhere, even underwater. The Flyboard has its own buoyancy and therefore floats on the water allowing the rider more safety and easier time in the water prior to start.  You can fly over the water, under the water, and have complete freedom to fly freestyle without the risk of getting hurt. We can assure you that the Flyboard is extremely SAFE. We have many options for anyone who would like to buy or try the Flyboard.

Learning

 

  • Learning to operate the Flyboard is much easier than you might think. Many people ask us “how hard is it to fly?” When given proper instruction and the student can follow those instructions, almost anyone will start flying the Flyboard during their first 5 minutes in the water. After only 20 minutes in the water you could easily have basic control of your movements over the water. Some people will have a natural ability and a faster learning curve, but almost anyone will have a lot of fun during their first ride and it only gets better after each ride. Most people have found that they are twice as good on their second ride.

Things you have to know

 

  • Flyboard is Easy:

     

Most people tend to get up on the board within 2 to 10 mn on their first attempt at Flyboarding. It’s actually very natural and intuitive, just like walking!

  • Flyboard is Safe:

     

The board has positive buoyancy and you’re as well equipped with a life vest. Your certified instructor is in control of your height at all times and will provide you all the tips necessary.

  • Flyboard is Fun:


Once you get going, you’re only limited by your creativity. As a very simple and light device, the Flyboard is very maneuverable and as soon as your second or third attempt, you’ll be starting to learn tricks.

BEACH CAMPING TIPS

 Beach Camping Tips.

Can you think of anything sweeter than waking up next to the pounding surf, breathing in that ocean air, and feeling that unparalleled connection with nature? Make your next beach camping trip a roaring success with these indispensable tips:

1. Bring Beach-Specific Supplies 

 

 As with any camping trip, you’re going to need the basics. Tent, tarp, sleeping bag, cooking tools… you know the drill. One helpful trick of the trade that applies especially well to beach camping? Bring along a dustpan and brush. You’ll be happy that you did when you’re able to brush off the sand and keep your sleeping quarters clean. Another helpful piece of gear are sand stakes. These handy little tools are meant to hold their ground in loose surfaces, saving you a lot of potential tent frustration.

2. Sun Prep is Essential 

 

Because beaches, by their nature, tend to be alongside expansive bodies of water, you’re going to want to prepare yourself for the glaring sun that will inevitably reflect off the waves. If you’ve managed to secure a site with shade, amazing. If not, plan ahead. If you have the luxury of a car, consider adding a beach umbrella to your gear stash. It’ll be indispensable when the midday sun is beating down on you and you’ve got nowhere else to go. It’s also incredibly important to remember sunscreen and wide-brimmed hats. Nothing ruins a camping trip faster than a bad sunburn.

 

3. Track Those Tides 

 

This one is applicable if you’re setting up camp beside the ocean and while it’s probably pretty obvious, it absolutely bears repeating. Before pitching your tent and building your bonfire, be absolutely positive that you are well away from the reaches of the water when it hits high tide. Familiarize yourself with the tides ahead of time and organize yourself accordingly. It may be tempting to set up shop right near the water but you’ll be singing a different tune when all your possessions are washed away after a particular aggressive wave. 

4. Give Me Shelter 

 

Even the most devoted sun worshippers can use a break every so often. And most of us can agree that some foods just taste better if they haven’t been sitting under powerful rays all morning. If you have the space, consider taking along a collapsible sun shelter which, in addition to providing some welcome shade, can be used as a refuge from mosquitoes and rain. Most sun shelters come with removable screen walls and are tall roomy enough to accommodate several campers, making them the ideal place to come together for meals, games of cards, or just breezy naps.

5. Step Away From The Dunes 

 

While they may be pretty to look at, sand dunes tend to house vulnerable vegetation that are easily (and negatively) affected by human interference. Additionally, the pose a risk as they are covered with shifting sand and rocks that can quickly slide down, creating a dangerous environment for everyone involved. Feel free to admire the dunes and marvel at their general awesomeness but for the their sake and yours, keep your hands, feet, and everything else to yourself.

6. Take It Inside 

 

 Even though the days may be hot and sunny, nights spent by the water tend to get foggy and damp pretty quickly. Before turning in for the night, pack away anything you’d prefer to keep dry and be sure to set up your rain fly. Unexpected storms, passing showers, or even heavy doses of dew can all make for an uncomfortable experience if you aren’t adequately prepared. 

7. Know Your H20 

 

Even though you’re surrounded by water, chances are you’ll need to pack a decent supply of your own, or invest in some water filters or purifying tablets before heading out. Sea water, because of its salt content, cannot be consumed. So unless you’re absolutely sure that there’s a fresh water source nearby, be sure to BYOW. If you’re camping near a lake, river, or stream, you still need to be cautious. Unless you’re at the source of a pristine, glacier-fed spring, you’re going to need to purify any water before drinking it, regardless of how clean it appears to be. It’s important to stay hydrated and in this case, it’s definitely better to be safe than sorry. 

8. Stash Your Trash 

 

Beaches are beautiful and your job, as a camper, is to help keep them that way. As with any campsite, you are responsible for your garbage and should be mindful of this when planning your trip. Cans and bottles are a hassle to transport and need to be brought back out so try to avoid using them in the first place. Consider packing some extra large freezer bags to use as trash receptacles—just remember that you need to take them with you at the end of your trip. Some parks provide you with garbage bags so find out beforehand whether the spot you’re going to offers this service. Be sure to check ahead to find out if there are any restricted items you should just leave at home. Happy beach camping!

BENEFITS OF EATING SEAFOODS

Benefits Of Eating Seafoods.

 

Seafood is one of the popular delicacies and every people will always loved to eat it. Their taste is irresistible and the fact that the food has no age limit makes it an excellent choice for most households. Over the years, studies have shown an increase in consumption of seafood. Apart from its great taste, there are numerous health benefits driving this demand. 

Why We Should Eat Sea foods?

 

Some of the key health benefits of eating seafood include:

  • Essential Nutrients

     

    Seafood is known for its high nutritional value. Though it depends on the specific type of seafood that you eat, seafood remains one of the best natural sources of vitamins and minerals. Some of the nutrients like B-complex vitamins (B1, B3 and B12) found in seafood are important for the human body, with many benefits including increasing metabolism. Fish species, as such salmon, are rich in vitamin A which boosts the immune and reproductive system efficiency.

     

  • Promotes Heart Health

     

    Seafood’s greatest health benefits are in their omega-3 fatty acids. These are polyunsaturated fats that play a critical role in the body, proven to promote a healthy heart. Studies have shown that omega-3s can lower the risks of cardiovascular disease such as stroke, heart attack and arrhythmias. Although some people would prefer sourcing these fats from commercial supplements, it’s highly recommended to consume natural sea food.
  • Fighting Depression

     

    Research shows that there is a relationship in between omega-fatty acids and the risk of depression. It was found that these fats not only lowers the risk of depression but also have the potential to treat the condition as well.
  • Low Cholesterol

    Although cholesterol is an essential part of our bodies, its levels must be balanced properly. Eating excess saturated fat increases the amount cholesterol levels. Fish and other types of seafood are one solution to this as they have very little saturated fat. Eat fish at least three times a week, and your cholesterol levels will fall significantly. Low cholesterol will have a huge impact on your heart’s health.
  • Maintaining Eyesight

     

    According to a study published in the Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science Journal (2014), it suggests that the consumption of omega-3 fatty acids can boost visual health significantly. The studies also noted that those who consume seafood are less likely to suffer from age-related macular degeneration. It was also pointed out in the same journal that eating fish and shellfish can boost your night vision while oily fish helps keep the eyes bright and healthy.
  • Boosts Brainpower

     

    Studies have shown that omega-3s found in seafood reduces the risk of neurodegenerative conditions such Alzheimer’s. Proper consumption of EPA and DHA in the omega-3 fatty acids is known for promoting brain growth in infants. According to the studies, most children consuming fish rich in omega 3s have a higher brain power. There is recent speculation in research circles that long-term consumption of omega-3s can boost cognitive function in ageing women.

HOW TD KEEP TOURISTS OCCUPIED


How Tour Directors Keep Tourists Occupied.


One aspect of the role of tour director that often is under-appreciated is that of Entertainer. A Tour Director (TD) on top of their game will be prepared for this. The only surprise is that you don’t know when you will be called upon to provide entertainment, not if you will.

There are a number of reasons a TD may have to entertain the group. Construction road delays are almost certain to happen in national parks, where summer tourist season is also road repair season. Weather-related phenomena such as rockslides and rainstorms cause delays and detours, and can occur most anywhere. It may also be that that day’s journey is lengthy with little variety to see out the window. Or a TD may decide that playing a game is a good way to orient guests to what they are about to see.

Just know that playing games on a tour bus can be a minefield. Some people love to play games, some abhor games, and they are all on the same bus. A game which does not last too long, which is somehow related to what folks are seeing or are going to see, which does provides everyone with an equal chance to win, is a game that most folks will at least tolerate even if they do not choose to participate. And choice is important. People forced to participate in games, especially those which require brain cells and might embarrass someone, often are resentful rather than appreciative. Perhaps it reminds people of days long ago at summer camp, and they interpret game-playing as being treated like a child. Do you get the idea that this has to be handled thoughtfully? It does.

What kinds of games to play? If they require pen and paper, the TD had best have a supply to send around the bus. If they pit one side of the bus against the other, there needs to be an opt-out option so everyone participating actually chooses to do so. If the game involves verbal responses, they need to be relayed to the group so everyone can hear. Beyond the logistics, games that somehow related to the tour experience, like listing different kinds of animals seen while driving through a national park, usually are well received. Is the weather outside the bus dreadful? Then a weather-related game would be appropriate. Is the tour about seeing monuments or memorials on the Mall in Washington, DC? Then which side of the bus sees a particular one first? Games that engage guests in what the tour is doing are best-received.

And what about the winners? Prizes need not be expensive, and often are better-received if they are not so the "losers" don’t actually feel bad about losing. A prize for a weather-related game could be an inexpensive rain poncho, for a geography-related game, could be a pocket compass. The possibilities are endless.

As enjoyable as games are, remember that they are not necessary, just an added feature from some TDs and not others. A different TD may want to conduct a sing-along on the bus, or show a related DVD, or all of the above. A TD needs to "read" a particular group and decide which approach is the best approach.

Sometimes no approach is best. There is nothing the matter with silence and quiet contemplation of the scenery outside.

CREATIVE WAY TO PROPOSE ON THE BEACH.

Creative Ways to Propose on the Beach. 

 

Proposal in a Bottle 

 

Take your partner to the beach for a picnic. When you're just about finished eating, pretend like you see something along the shoreline. Trot over there as though you want a closer look, and take the opportunity to pull a small bottle out of your pocket in which you have a note with your proposal.
Bring the bottle back to your partner, and ask her to open it and read you the note. When she reads it, pull out the ring you bought for her and give her a moment to put the two together. Once she clearly catches on to what's happening, ask her to marry you. 

Buried Treasure 

 

If you want to make a proposal that truly fits the setting, and you're sure your potential fiancee will appreciate an off-beat proposal, consider burying the engagement ring in a small treasure chest in the sand at a secluded area of the beach. Better yet, pick the location, and have a trusted friend bury it for you can keep watch over it until you get there. 

Leave one end of the treasure chest sticking out of the ground slightly so you can spot it and ask your partner what she thinks it might be. Encourage her to dig it out of the sand and open it. When she finds the ring, tell her she's the real treasure and ask her to marry you. 

Jewel in the Shell 

 

Finding a pearl in an oyster is an amazing thing anyone can appreciate, so why not try an engagement ring in a shell? You might need to actually purchase a shell big enough to hide the ring in without getting it jammed inside. 

Take your partner to the beach, and tell her you want to look for pearls. She'll probably think you're being a little silly, but just convince her to go with it. When she's looking the other way, pull the shell out of your pocket, and place it in plain site. Point it out to her and ask her if she checked that one. Watch carefully in case she spills the ring onto the ground when she picks it up. When she finds the ring, tell her how lucky she is and ask her if she'll make you the luckiest man in the world by marrying you. 

Extravagant Beach Proposal Ideas 

 

Exotic Vacation Proposal


Splurge on a tropical vacation for the two of you. Spend the day seeing the sights, and then plan to have a romantic dinner followed by a walk on the beach.
When you think it's the right moment, tell your partner how glad you are that she's here with you in paradise, and tell her the only thing that could make the night more perfect is if she would agree to marry you. Make sure you have a ring for her so she knows your proposal isn't an impulsive one, and she'll feel more inclined to say yes right away. 

Fireworks 

 

When money is no object, fireworks can make an amazing backdrop for a marriage proposal. Hire a party planner to arrange a fireworks display at your favorite beach.
As you and your partner are watching the display, tell her you arranged the fireworks to show her what goes on in your heart everytime you look at her. Pull out your engagement ring, and tell her this diamond is just a symbol of one sparkle from the fireworks, but it's one the two of you can share the rest of your lives if she'll marry you. 

Spa Retreat Proposal 

 

An oceanside couple's spa retreat can set the scene for a very romantic proposal. Spend the day partaking in relaxing treatments together, like a warm mud bath and a hot stone massage. Take your partner for a candlelight dinner on the beach, and order Champagne for a toast. Work your proposal into that toast, and give her the box with the ring. When she says yes, you can clink your glasses together to seal the moment. 
 

Tips on Choosing a Beach

 

Before you head out to the beach with a ring in hand, visit it a day or two in advance at the same time the proposal is planned to make sure it will be a clean and picturesque location to pop the question. Some of the most important points to consider include:
  • Smells: Is the ocean breeze the only scent, or does the beach smell like an old aquarium?
  • Sounds: Waves vary in volume, and a whispered question won't be heard over thunderous breakers.
  • Sand: Is the sand easy to walk across? Is it clean or dirty? How far is the walk to the water?
  • Company: Is the beach crowded or isolated? Will an intimate proposal be disrupted by other beach-goers?

Make the Proposal Unique and Memorable

Every anxious and hopeful groom-to-be can find different ways to propose on the beach whether he is interested in a romantic, creative or extravagant marriage proposal. When the natural beauty of the water combines with the beauty of your love, the only trick is to avoid drowning in the moment..

IDEAS FOR BEACH PROPOSAL

Ideas for a Classic, Romantic Beach Proposal.

A pristine stretch of soft white sand and the gentle murmuring of the waves can provide an exquisitely romantic setting for a marriage proposal, but the setting is just one facet of the plan. You still need to decide how you're going to carry it all out.



Think about your partner's personality, and then try to create an ideal proposal that's bound to inspire an enthusiastic, "Yes!"

Here are some Ideas for a Classic, Romantic Beach Proposal : 

Message in the Sand.


There are many ways to make a romantic proposal in this setting. Picture the two of you on the beach, perhaps walking along hand-in-hand as you listen to the rolling waves and the breeze drifts across you. As you walk along, you come to a spot where something is written in the sand.

You pretend you've never seen this message before but, in fact, you wrote it just a few hours earlier in a spot that won't get washed away when the tide comes in. You ask your partner what the message says, and as she reads it, you pull the ring box out of your pocket and have it ready for her when she turns around toward you.

Romantic Bonfire.


There's something magical about building a small bonfire on the beach. Pick a secluded location where high tide won't reach and wind isn't very strong, and set up the bonfire ahead of time so it's ready for lighting when you get there.

As the two of you snuggle together gazing at the burning embers, tell her that she's very much like that fire. She's the light of your life, and she sets your heart on fire everytime you look at her. Tell her you can't imagine anything more wonderful than coming back to this beach every year to celebrate the anniversary of this moment, and then show her the ring and propose.

Picnic on a Moonlit Beach.


In another scenario, imagine the two of you having an intimate, romantic picnic at the beach on a moonlit night. Keep the meal light with wine, cheese, bread and fruit. When you've finished eating, pour another glass of wine for each of you and tell your partner you have one more treat to share.

Reach into the bottom of the picnic basket where you have carefully hidden the ring box, and set it gently on the blanket in front of her. Tell her the only thing more beautiful than the reflection of the moon on the water is the site of her face, and that you can't imagine sharing your life with anyone else. Give her your heartfelt proposal, and then wait patiently for her reply.

On Bended Knee.


Part of a great proposal is creating an image your partner will remember for the rest of her life. Take a lazy, barefoot stroll along the water's edge. When the moment is right, stop and gently drop to one knee. This gesture alone is going to send her over the moon because she'll know exactly what's about to happen. Choose your words carefully, make them sincere, and end with that phrase every marriage-minded girl dreams of hearing one day, "Will you marry me?"

DEVELOPING A POSITIVE VIBE IN THE WORKPLACE

 Developing a Positive Vibe in the Workplace.


Becoming successful is by no means an easy task in the world of today. No matter what you are doing, there’s always competition lurking out for you to be completely aware of. Be it a sports person or a businessman, you are always in constant threat of your competitor and your adversary taking over you.
 
In football, you can’t let the other footballer, who is always compared to you, to score more goals or keep more clean sheets so you always have to be on your toes and try to do something better. Same is the case with running a business. The markets of today are no longer dominated by one giant and other small companies; today there are tons of companies providing the same products or services and the customer almost becomes spoilt for choice. In such a situation, it becomes near to impossible to keep up the pace and people almost seem to be out of options.

You need to remember to keep your profits intact and you also can’t make the product a lot expensive because that’d mean that customers now have excuses to divert away from your product. So, how to then maximize profits and also make sure that the customer base that the product or service has attracted, keeps intact? How to then make sure that things always move in the right direction?

There can be a multitude of answers to these questions, but the wisest option is to develop good conditions for your workforce to operate in. If the environment is feasible for the employee then they are going to love working for you and hence they will produce the best results for you to be proud of. Learn some of the things that you can do and develop a good ambience about your workspace.

1. Avoid discussing sensitive issues:

Never shed light on political or religious issues whilst working in your office. As a manager, you should also make sure that nobody does this either. When people start engaging in futile discussions like these, then their focus is diverted away from the tasks in hand and it only leads to more debate that becomes an inevitable source of time wastage.

2. Set boundaries:

Never allow people in your employee roll to chit chat while on duty. A lot of people like to play videos and music, also wanting their colleagues to hear and that becomes a menace because it doesn’t look like a workplace anymore.

3. Don’t play games:

You have been hired to do some work for which you will get paid the promised money so as an employee, you are not allowed to play games while on duty. A manager should make sure that this never happens.

4. Love each other:

When a group of people stays and works together for a while, they tend to develop a relationship between themselves. Try to work as a family and try to love and respect the ones around you so that everybody can work in peace.

IMPORTANCE OF ADVENTURE

Why its important to live life with adventures?

Humans have a tendency to be very repetitious. We wake up in the morning. Go to school or work. Come home. Eat. Sleep. It's the same thing everyday. Yet we are comfortable with the same boring thing all the time. It's our comfort zone. 

We live in a spot were we know we are safe and sound. But is that really living? Where is the risk? Where is the adventure? If we aren't living our lives to the fullest then why are we here at all? This is why it's important to live a life with a little adventure.

Adventure is an experience that greatly impacts one's life and begins to define how they live after, but it is the exact definition that can be different for everyone. For example, someone's sense of adventure may be to go to Mount Everest and conquer the mountain while another person's idea would be to go on a hike in a nearby park. Even though these adventures are different, both people will learn valuable experiences that will ultimately change their lives.

There are so many reasons why we should embrace adventure in our everyday lives. First of all, we are all stuck in our safety bubble that we rarely try to experience anything new. It's very easy to get stuck in our safe routine and sometimes we just forget how to live!
Second of all, going on vacations and little adventures is scientifically shown to make a person happier; you forget about all your work problems and go love life.

You experience something new, which gives you the opportunity to share your stories. What's even better is when you find someone else who had a similar adventure and swap stories! 

Going on adventures gives you a new view of time. You begin to realize that we are on this Earth for only a fraction of what we originally thought; humans only have so many years until we are unable to go out anymore. Which is why people with adventure in their blood begin to live like each day is our last. 

This leads to the last reason why adventure is important in our lives: we only live once. I know it's the cliché saying that everyone goes on about, but it's true. Why spend our lives holed up in a little town with work that is actually pretty insignificant and wait for the adventures to come to us. But that is not how life works. Life wants you to go out and make stories—you to go out there and find the meaning of life. And unless you don't take that little step—that little risk—you will never experience adventure and, in return, life. 

So let's all put our phones, laptops, and tablets down and stop looking at those amazing adventure pictures on the internet and get out there. It doesn't have to be a trip to the Beach or the jungle. Remember, everyone's adventure is different; go talk to a random person and befriend them, attend a fancy diner that serves authentic food, or take a themed road trip for a weekend. These are all worthy adventures that beak up the daily norm of our lives. This is how you live. Do something different everyday and you will live a life full of adventure. So what are you waiting for? Go out there and claim your own adventure!

SUNCREEN AND SUNBURN TIPS AND HACKS

Sunscreen and Sunburn Tips and Hacks.

We all know the importance of wearing a sunscreen whenever we're outside, as well as reapplying it frequently. However, it's easy to get burned, even if you think you're doing all the right things. In cases of severe sunburn, that causes extreme pain, nausea tipper blisters, you should seek medical attention immediately.

According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, an estimated 90 percent of skin aging is caused by the sun. If your sunburn is minor, we have a few sunburn hacks that will help you soothe that pain and burn, as well as prevent your skin from peeling:


• Chill your sunscreen. Keep your sunscreen in the cooler. That way, when you apply (and reapply), you'll help to cool down your body, too.

• Know when to apply and reapply sunscreen. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, you should apply sunscreen 30 minutes prior to sun exposure and apply in one ounce portions — about a shot glass full. You should reapply the same amount every two hours. Remember to apply sunscreen on sunless days, too, because as much as 40 percent of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays reaches our planet even on a totally cloudy day. Set your timer on your phone or write down the time to reapply on the sunscreen bottle using a marker.

• Bring a spray bottle filled with even amounts of apple cider vinegar and water. For the first few hours and days after your skin gets burned, use this homemade mixture to calm the inflammation, as well as to alleviate your itch.

• Apply yogurt to your skin. On your way home from the beach, buy a plain probiotic yogurt and spread some thinly over your sore skin. Allow this to sit for ten minutes or so, and then gently wipe it off with a damp cloth.

• Apply raw honey. Spreading a thin layer of raw honey to your affected skin, then covering it with gauze for a while will help, as honey is a natural antiseptic.

• Bring some loose clothing. Ensure you wear loose clothing on your way home from the beach in case you have been sunburned and your clothes are exacerbating your red, tender and sore skin.

• Bring cold black tea to the beach. Dabbing cold black tea onto sunburn takes some of the sting out of your skin.

• Lay a baby wipe over your skin. You should always have baby wipes in your arsenal of beach gear, and all you need to do is to lay one over your sunburned skin for a few minutes to cool your sunburn temporarily.
