It is a very drastic improvement for a third-world Middle Eastern country. We can even further enlarge the vision by looking at the cultural differences between Turkey and Canada, a developed first world country, as I immigrated here at the age of 15. It was surprising to me that a country…

I looked around. The music box tune was getting louder now. Curiosity engulfed me, where were we heading? The boat snaked around another corner, and just as before, we had entered into a gold cavern with gold stars. Gemma stared up, spellbound as they fell like a dazzling array of fireflies.

What The Future Holds On The Red Planet In 2095, the year that everything in our world seems to change every minute and every second. Living in a vast and different environment to what we humans used to live in. No longer the blue skies but dark and empty, no more smell of cheesy pizza that every child would go crazy for but the disgusting packaged and creamed up versions of green beans. What are clouds?

Of course we were all reluctant at first, because as teenagers, we are glued to our phones, but it turned out to be the best decision we had ever made.
