spring break Review

For many college students, spring break means partying at the beach with friends and hopefully hooking up. For me, spring break means a break from my normal, hectic college schedule to a more exciting, hectic schedule involving Japanese friends and Daytona Beach.

 For the past three years, I have gone to Daytona Beach and stayed in a wonderful hotel right on the water. A group of college aged Japanese students, who are visiting Orlando, Florida for a month, also come to this Beach Retreat. On top of enjoying the beach and hotel facilities, we also play games as a group, cook meals together, and stay up late building lifelong friendships.

 Sometimes I wonder if I might prefer doing something else for spring break. I've never been on a cruise before... but then again, who wants to go on a crazy, overcrowded cruise for spring break with a bunch of drunk, and probably underage college students?! Not me. Every year I absolutely love my time in Daytona with comfortable weather, fun things to do, and plenty of quality time with friends.

I highly recommend Daytona Beach for spring break. It offers great beach settings, other fun things to do, plenty of shopping, and a relaxing escape from normal life! And if you can somehow find Japanese students to go with you, it makes it THAT much better!
