Juicy Couture is a contemporary line of both casual and dressy apparel founded by Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor back in 1994. Now owned by the “Liz Claibornefashion company”, Juicy is known for their terrycloth and velour tracksuits as well as other clothing and accessories.

The basic idea of the founders was  to create a label equal to that of other major labels, but to be more affordable to the general public (although this is no longer the case, as most of their apparel is priced at more than $100 USD).

They didn’t had much money to start their business, and for advertise it, so they had the great idea of sending complete collections to celebrities (e.g. Madonna), who really liked the style and helped the brand to emerge on the broad market.

Around 2004, it boomed in popularity, and nowadays is well know in popularity, despite it lost most of his orginal appeal, becoming a merely commercial brand. They expanded their lines with men’s clothing and cosmetics.

In the first semester 2008 only they grossed more than 280 million USD.

What do u mean by going to travel ?

Is travel an organized plan, with the purpose of seeing as much as you can, is travel just going away from home ?

It depends whatis the real purpose for moving from your home?

If your purpose is realaxing, or chill out, good but u don’t need to go so far, or in exotic place, a quiet and beautiful place is perfect also if near home.

But most of the people at the question why you go to travel? will answer to see the world.

So why most of these people that answer to see the world, don’t do that ?  they usually go in hotel, where everything it’s same as their home, same habit, same costumes, they same food as home, they go shopping in same shops, buying same products that in their country, what’s the purpose of that … you crossed half of the world for living like in your home, just watching as a spectator the country that you’re visiting, taking same pictures as millions of other tourist, and seeing same things that the television can show you and that everybody already know.

Where is the pleasure of learning by experience the pleasure of discovering by yourself, the pleasure of not only assimilating notions or idea, but live them and make them yours.

The excitement of unknow, to truly discover the world, made of billion of different people and idea … jump in the middle of the local, learn the language, learn the habits, immerse yourself completely i a life that s not yours, but try to make it yours.  you don’t need plan, you dont need any reservation just go somewhere, and live and keep moving somewhere else, enjoy every single small new things you discovery everyday, with the same unceasing capability to get stunned by the world that children have.

Seals.

Who has never spent a couple of minutes watching these fatty mammals resting on the sand of the children’s pool in la Jolla?

Soon this will not be possible anymore because after more than 15 years ago, in which the seals bacamoe one of la Jolla’s landmark, the Superior Court ruled against them and decided the cute animals should leave.

Despite being true that the children’s pool (that’s tha name of the beach where the seals settled down) was originally built for families with small children to have a peaceful place to swim in, and now thay can’t anymore.

With all the beaches here in San Diego, do the families really need and want that beach ?  The answer is NO ! They don’t need that beach and right now, they don’t even want it because is contaminated by seals waste.

So there is no doubt that the court decision is a completely non-sense.

LET THE SEALS STAY, they’ll become a symbol of La Jolla’s freedom and open mind, and also an important tourist attraction and economical factor.
