Canary Islands
This summer I went to the Canary Islands with my friends. We did a lot of things there; we went to the swimming pool, partying, to the dune beach, and to the aqua park party...

Gran Canaria Field Research
Dann ging es ab nach Gran Canaria, unsere 120 Fragebogen wurden von den
armen Touristen ausgefuellt und 14 Touristen und 14 Tourismus Experten
wurden interviewed. Das war alles sehr viel Arbeit, da die Touris

mitgemacht haben. Aber wir waren ja zusammen und es hat trotzdem Spass ...
