?COUPLE VS SINGLE?

Everyone has different expectations towards traveling as a couple,
Sometimes it is hidden behind the sweetlove during a romantic holiday,
Love blinded by the sweet floral scent of cherry blossoms,
Hidden in the river of warmth behind an awesome festival … toying with your emotions,
Bathing in the limelight of romantic love, but in actual reality a very costly one,
Oh you poor singles out there, sidelined from this limelight of the worlds wonderful feeling and vista’s of course…..
Calling all Singles out there! Do not let the notion of “romance and couple” stop you from experiencing these destinations!
