A
The world is full of beauty in every corner. Here are four world's top breathtaking and beautiful travelling destinations for you to pay a visit to.
Dominica
Dominica is known as “nature island” for a reason. This tiny Caribbean state focuses on hot springs and longdistance walking in the rainforest rather than playing on the beach. Boiling Lake, in the Morne Trois Pitons National Park, can be reached by mountainous paths, a body of water that is well worth a visit.
Lake Bled, Slovenia
Lake Bled is one of the largest freshwater lakes on Earth. At its center lies a small island, surrounded by deep blue water. It's no surprise that Lake Bled has developed into one of the hottest destinations in Europe in recent years. Suitable for walking and diving adventures, this is a corner of Slovenia that needs to be explored.
Samburu, Kenya
As a hardtoreach place in the heart of Kenya, Samburu provides a quiet and safe environment, which is good enough for some of Africa's most unique wildlife to live in. The rich grassland of its national nature protection area is home to the endangered giraffe, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.
Positano, Italy
Located on Italy's Amalfi Coast, Positano is one of the most beautiful villages in Europe. Famous for its special small gift shops and waterside restaurants, not to mention the Byzantine Church, it makes for the perfect summer getaway. For divers, with its colorful plants and fish, it's a really perfect place. Make sure to see its full form by taking a boat out from the beach for excellent sunset views.

The problem was that the river was a little bit changeable. Immediately, I decided to act. I jumped in and lifted his heavy, twitching trunk from the water with the help of lifeguards.

As soon as his ears started to move, a sign of coming to life, I dropped his trunk and moved to safety. Within a couple of minutes, he was back to life. That was one of my proudest moments.
