Follow @ajparistravel for more travel photos 😍 Americans are celebrating Thanksgiving today. “It is the one holiday I can enjoy with family,” says Juan, who lives in Miami and whose family are devout Christians. “It’s not religious, unlike Christmas,” he laughs. Yes, it’s true that Thanksgiving is not a religious holiday. However, I ask Juan and everyone who thinks like that, who do you think the “thanks” is being given to? ❤️ Learn more, link in bio 🔗 #ajparis #thanksgiving #holidays #gratitude #travel #coffeetablebook (at Miami Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqe3UHaAoKr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12qglqsuz1f6x

Follow @ajparisbooks for more travel photos 😍 What do countries like Fiji, Guyana, India, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, Nepal, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Suriname, and as well as Trinidad and Tobago have in common? They are all celebrating Diwali today. It is an Autumn festival that is rooted in Hinduism, although other faiths like Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism all have variations of it. In this photo, taken in Varanasi, a special Diwali lamp called “diya” is lit. The heart of this festival is the victory of light over darkness (all the faiths celebrate this, even if the events may be different). May the light of goodness shine upon you ❤️ Learn more, link in bio 🔗 #ajparis #india #diwali #festivaloflight #travel #coffeetablebook (at Varanasi, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp4Bhp5gtbA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1i51wm5klah3g

Follow @ajparisbooks for more travel photos 😍 Day of the Dead, “Día de Muertos“ in Spanish, is an important public holiday in Mexico. A large number of people in the country, as well as those in the Mexican Diaspora, celebrate this for three days beginning on October 31. “We also celebrate Halloween,” says Carlos, a young man I photographed. Originally, the Mexican people celebrated this in the summer. It celebrated the death of the ancestors. However, since the colonization of the country (by the Spanish) the celebration was made to coincide with Christian holy days. Do you have something like this in your culture? ❤️ Learn more, link in bio 🔗 #ajparis #mexico #halloween #dayofthedead #travel #coffeetablebook (at Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco) https://www.instagram.com/p/BplovDEhkip/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wlayt1hxmmyi

Follow @ajparistravel for more travel photos 😍 Kids. They are just amazing, aren’t they? They are innocent. They don’t care what is happening around them. They truly are the best of us. Here are beautiful kids from the Thar, which is the most densely populated desert in the world. Around sixty percent of this desert is located in the Indian state of Rajasthan, which is where this photo was taken. “I just love their faces,” said Ashok, a model I was photographing in the area, as the children lined up happy to strike a pose. Children, for me, are the same worldwide. Whether they are in New York City or in the heart of the desert in India, they are open and full of love. We can all learn from that! ❤️ Learn more, link in bio 🔗 #ajparis #thardesert #rajasthan #travel #coffeetablebook (at Jodhpur City, Rajasthan, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpT2UOqBtt9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8tm204mgnhs
