In recent years, tourism has become a model for different countries. In many nations are taking steps to reduce the environmental impact of their activities, especially when they belong to travelers around the world.

Spain is one of the pioneers in this matter. In the Iberian territory are promoted environmental activities since the early years of the 1990s, when many still believed that global warming was a myth and the care of the environment did not receive the attention it does today.

Spain has been much emphasis on the promotion of greenways, which are projected as an ideal alternative to enjoy the outdoors in the warmer times of the year. Using abandoned railways have introduced different routes used to know different landscapes of the country, either by bike or on a hike.

Greenways began operating since 1994, but have since gone virtually unnoticed in front of the prime attractions in major cities. However, thanks to the revitalization of tourism have won back a lot of acceptance among Spanish tourists and other parts of the world.

Best of all, they can see through the web what are greenways that are in different regions of the Spanish territory. Thus have the opportunity to choose the more attractive they seem, either near a specific city or the landscape of the area.

On the website Open Travel published an interesting article about places in the world could live with $ 500 a month without too many mishaps. With fear of contradiction, assert that in many Latin American countries could live happily with the figure mentioned (rather austere, of course). The criterion on the list, has been to choose between paradise and also exotic places, especially the opposite hemisphere, and tropical destinations.

Of course I think of cheap places to live, can be relative, as in many of those listed below, as local residents fail to win or for $ 500 a month away, probably to them is quite expensive. Favorable exchange rate through the list of cheap places to live is as follows:
Thailand

With its beautiful beaches, permanent sun and good food this target can not sound bad to anyone. In Thailand we can get real surprises in terms of fees, such as renting rooms for about $ 90 a month in places near the coast, or sample dishes at food stands for less than $ 1.
Cambodia

Although the country has its negative side accentuated poverty, cost of living to live in cities like the capital, Phnom Penh can be almost ridiculous $ 500 is more than enough to rent a shared apartment and buy food to an average dollar and a half per meal.
Philippines

Leaving big cities like Manila in the Philippines can move to Cebu, a province with abundant beaches, golf courses and shops where you can rent an apartment for only $ 150 a month. The food is also delicious and inexpensive.

Costa Rica

Living in this country is not only cheap, is a huge pleasure! Costa Rica is the country with more protected areas on the planet, is a paradise where nothing is too expensive, if we are willing to share house or apartment and away from San Jose, the capital. For about $ 250 we will have to sleep, and in restaurants, an average meal does not rise above $ 4.
Belize

Considered one of the most beautiful countries in Central America, Belize has it all as to nature (ideal if you want cheap living apart from enjoying outdoor activities or adventure sports), and also a good price. With prices similar to Costa Rica, a lease on the outskirts of Belize City averages $ 300 a month.

It occurs to me to add in the list of countries affordable at $ 500 a month, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Peru, and almost everyone in America (if we get away from tourist areas and large cities / capitals), plus the Most African countries. Any ideas to add? We must be attentive to prices ( CPI 2010 ).

When Daniel Defoe told us about the misadventures of a castaway from a shipwreck, who lived on an island for several years, knew he was opening the door to new adventures and dreams up new worlds for those who read. Perhaps he planted a seed, because the fertilizer was the undoubted humanity of overcoming adversity and struggle against our own limits. The adventure tourism in a way, is a part of this, of struggle, but at the same time, communion with nature.

Robinson Crusoe is the title of that book that is left to the annals of literature. But perhaps not everyone knows, is that this book was based on a true story of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor who between 1704 and 1709 he lived on the island now known as Robinson Crusoe Island.

Robinson Crusoe Island belongs to the Juan Fernandez archipelago, discovered by Spanish navigator of the same name in 1574. This archipelago, which is official territory of Chile , consists of three islands: the Robinson Crusoe, Alejandro Selkirk and Santa Clara, and was declared not long ago as “one of the 10 world’s most isolated places.”

Robinson Crusoe Island is almost a paradise unknown and almost barren, has been declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1977, precisely because of the wide variety of flora and fauna can be found there. Today it is an island that is visited to practice adventure tourism and sports several, it is a very suitable for trekking and hiking, and is also a coveted destination for its beautiful scenery.

There you can visit the El Yunque Plazoleta at the foot of the highest peak of the island, where you can get a stunning panorama, or supposedly also the cave where he lived for five years Selkirk. To the south of the island is also the Selkirk viewpoint from where you are supposed spotted the boat to rescue him, and is inhabited by giant ferns.

Robinson Crusoe Island has 70% of endemic plant species in the world, and is also known animal species live only in these islands, like the wolf fur or red hummingbird.

The last great moment of glory of these islands was a little over two years, when they announced that their costs had discovered the treasure of Juan Fernandez, who according to legend has great historical riches, as the keys to the Western Wall in Jerusalem, the collar of the woman of Atahualpa, or 600 barrels of gold. In total, they estimate that the value of that treasure can reach 10,000 million dollars. However, disputes over possession, have not yet been taken nothing of its waters, and has even come to doubt the finding to be true.

Legends or reality, is still a mystery to us. Same if not real, has served to feed the air of secrecy and mystery of the island.
