There were a lot of festivals this year, and personally, I think that they were all great. I was not able to come to all of them, but I did enjoy the ones that I got to experience. In my opinion, we all need to unwind every now and then. We can't just suffocate ourselves with work, we all need to do a little traveling every now and then. Personally, I think that we can do a lot of stuff while we are young.
