Between the beach 🌴 and the forest 🌳 .... | Weekend Engagement 142 !

Welcome!

Hello hivers from all over the world! I hope you are feeling great and are having a great weekend, for my part I am happy to make my first post in this fun community thanks to my friends @mariajcastro28 and @bluevibes who with their participation have captured my attention, also once you read what is each topic that they propose to talk about on weekends is inevitable not to want to participate, among so many options that caught my attention I decided to choose this one:

If you could choose between a small hut on an idyllic beach or a cabin in the woods, which would you prefer and why?

I have just completed a year living in Margarita Island - Venezuela, where I have had several times to experience life near the beach and also in the forest, so here is my answer!

First of all I must tell you a little about my hometown to you understand my decision, I am from Ciudad Guayana where the main tourist attraction are two forests so to speak, one is the Cachamay Park and the La Llovizna Park, these forests are full of snakes, poisonous toads and wild monkeys, among other animals, of course growing up in visiting these two parks you get used to be connected with nature and to accept the coexistence with those animals, my mother always told me that her school was right next to Cachamay Park, so almost every day they had to deal with monkeys that got into the classrooms and made a lot of messes hahahaha, in my school something similar happened, but with iguanas and African snails, Nowadays I don't know in what condition these parks are in, let alone how are the animals that live there, but the memories I have are memorable and I wouldn't change them for anything, among friends and family we used to make excursions or long walks through these parks both to enjoy nature and to enjoy the animals that we could get there.

As I said at the beginning I have a year living in Margarita Island which has allowed me to experience more often what it means to live on the shores of the beach, here there are also many mountains to climb and a forest called Cerro Copey which already visited and made me feel like I was walking through the Cachamay Park, if I have to choose between a hut in the forest and a hut on a paradisiacal beach I think I would choose to live .... Before deciding let's talk about the pros and cons, among them is that in the forest we can get a wide variety of seeds, nuts, and even fruits, there are also many medicinal plants, I can take water from a river, fishing or hunting, I know you are thinking of those wild animals like jaguars or bears that I could run into, on the other hand the beach, living on the beach would be a dream come true, wake up and have the beach right in front of your eyes, enjoying an exquisite climate and having many palm trees around you full of coconut is the best, but it also has its negative side as is the excess of sun which could be harmful to the skin, also the possible tsunamis or high tides, the dangers that can be found in the sea like jellyfish for example, all life has its cons and its pros, we must only choose what we would be willing to enjoy life, so I would choose. ...

🌴 The beach! 🌴

Living near the beaches this year has made me fall in love with this lifestyle, I would love to have a hut near the seashore to enjoy the beach even more, I haven't enjoyed a full day at the beach for more than a month so I will take this decision as a divine sign to go next week to enjoy what life has given me, living near the beach😉.
