USA - Clearwater Beach, Florida (US-362398)

The cards that I receive from Florida are always special for me in some way, because, as I've already written for many times, that's the only state in USA that I've been to. I can't say it's my favorite place on the earth or that it's my dream to come back there. But it was certainly an interesting experience, something exotic... and I'm glad I went there at 13, because now there are so many other problems and things to do that I would probably never go to America, even if I had a lot of money.

I haven't been to Clearwater Beach, but it reminds me some other beaches in Florida. The nature is really wonderful - sandy beach, all these small islands... But I think it would look better without all those houses. Well, I know that many people like such "civilised" places at the seaside :) I prefer "wild" beaches, without any buildings and with not so many people. But of course, I wouldn't complain if I could go to Clearwater Beach, especially during the winter :))
