My favourite holiday

When it comes to taking a vacation, the one place that I always love going back to is Goa, with its sun kissed beaches and the beautiful sea. It’s a really exciting place where you can chill out and relax to your heart’s content. As far as going for a holiday abroad is concerned, I really like Australia. I once went there on a small vacation with a friend and it was amazing. We went scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef, which turned out to be a spectacular adventure. I learnt deep sea diving there and the experience is truly unforgettable.
