SEC-S18W6 | My travel destination in 2024 | [Going to Cox's Bazar Sea Beach Next Month.]

_{Hello Everyone. I am @shiftitamanna
From #Bangladesh}

Assalamu Alaikum everyone. Today I am publishing my entry for the Traveling Steem Community's last week of Steemit Engagement Challenge. My travel destination in 2024 has been given as this year's challenge. But the happy thing is that my travel time is very close as per the competition content. I am going to complete this trip next month itself (in-shah-Allah). So without delay I will share the plans of My travel destination in 2024 through this challenge.

Where is your travel destination in 2024? Tell us about it and why you put it at the top of your travel destinations.

I think there is no person who does not like to travel. Traveling is very useful way to increase our taste of knowledge as well as to feel peace and relaxation. And the travel destination should be where you can feel peace. I have always been a nature lover. I find my relaxation in the midst of nature. So in 2024 my travel destination will be the beach. And the happy thing is that I am going to do this trip next month.

Cox's Bazar is the beach of Bangladesh. It is the longest beach in the world, Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. I have been there many times but then the beauty of the natural environment of this beach attracts me to it again and again. Not only this, there are big hills next to the beach which makes the environment more attractive. So I always rank this travel destination as the top spot.

What kind of travel experiences are you planning there?

I have planned many different travel experiences there. Cox's Bazar has various tourist spots which are very popular. There are some places which are very crowded. However, there are many islands surrounding the beach. They are even more beautiful. I made my plan there. I can't cover all the places but plan to visit the most beautiful ones. I have given the list of places below with the location.

Are you planning the trip solo or will you have a travel companion?

I never like to travel by myself. I travel with my family all the time. This time will not be an exception. I will travel to Cox's Bazar with my family in the month of July/2024. Actually everyone in my family lives a very busy life. As a result, it is very difficult to find time in the midst of busyness.

But this time I have planned this trip almost two months in advance. So that everyone can stay free during the travel time. Actually traveling with friends or families gives me a lot of relief than traveling alone. Because who does not like to spend time with family in busy life. So I don't want to miss any opportunity to spend time with family.

If you could take any Steemian as a travel companion, who would it be?

If I will participate in family trip next month. My whole family will join this trip. It's going to be a big trip for me in 2024. In the mean time it wouldn't be too bad if I invited a Steemian to travel with me. It will be like a meetup of sorts. But I will invite @mdkamran99 to join this journey. I think it will give birth to a new experience for me. I will make my Steemian friends meet my family. And we can visit different attractive places of the beach together.

Share the estimated steem value of what your trip would cost to complete.

I guess my upcoming trip is going to be very expensive. Because 10 members of my family including me are going on this trip. This trip will be of 4 days duration. For this four-day trip, I budgeted heavily for the trip, from transportation to accommodation, dining, and sightseeing. I am presenting below a cost estimate for my upcoming trip :

Name of Expenses	BTD	Steem
Transportation (Dhaka to Cox's Bazar to and fro)	21,600/-	981.81
Hotel rent	32,500/-	1,477
Meal Costs (approx.)	7,000/-	318
Cost of sightseeing (approx.)	15,700/-	713
Shopping (approx.)	5,000/-	227
Total cost of trip (approx.)	81,800/-	3,718

I would like to invite my friends @mdkamran99, @hotspotitaly and @fombae to participate in this contest.
