    My great-great grandfather was a seafaring merchant in the Caribbean and would travel all over the world to treasure hunt from the stories that my great-grandfather and grandmother would tell me. This song will always remind me of him and his travels. I'll always be proud of him for the life and heritage he created for our family.

      Daniel Kim She was soft spoken and smiled a lot. Gave us a compliment at the end too. It’s been 10 years since but I do remember her wearing all black I think? Like a long black skirt and top. She looked almost exactly like her sister who also came. The sister actually comes into my work from time to time today and you can definitely see the similarities as they both have that distinct face.

    FYI: Orinoco is one of the largest rivers in the Amazon jungle and its the main river of Venezuela, its name means "the place to swim" in the native indigenous language due to fact that there's no crocodiles and piranhas in its waters near to the ocean shore. It springs at the highest peak of the Amazon jungle, where's the highest world's waterfall as well, the Angel's Fall, 1.2 kilometer high, and flows into the Atlantic Ocean close to the borders of Brazil and Colombia

    What beautifully haunting and unforgettable music, and what amazingly well captured footage of spectacular, lush scenery and heavenly blue lagoons and oceans, all of which blends in together quite seamlessly, and quite brilliantly.
    The voice of Enya is smoothly and euphorically ethereal, and utterly captivating, as divine and spiritual as any that ever was, and as close to Heaven as we'll ever get to on this Earthly paradise. I'm spellbound and hopelessly enraptured!
    For her otherworldly voice can so sweetly nourish the soul, polish off the accumulated rust that corrodes it, fill one with all redeeming, soothing bliss, and purify the spirits, so much so that one becomes thoroughly transmogrified, and loftily and nobly elevated, reaching these spiritual heights that are dazzlingly magnificent, and magically surreal.
    Enya's voice, and her music, can gracefully enchant like no other, and lovingly and effortlessly transport one to this dreamworld of blissful tranquility, and euphoric poignancy, just as this deeply stirring and heavenly song always does, soulful, spiritually moving and profoundly calming as it is.
    The voice of Enya is serenely mesmerizing, and hauntingly gorgeous, while her music just reverberates to the depths of one's soul. The most sublime music to be heard in the vast and immeasurable echo chamber that is the cosmos. Hers is the voice of Heaven.

Push the boundaries, get out of your comfort zone - there’s a whole world of experiences, sights, smells, tastes, experiences to be had. And we only live once.

We knew a stage of life is coming to an end and a new one is beginning. It was the last summer days of 1988 ... even though I was so small, I sensed that something was going to happen. This feeling is indescribable until today ... no generation after us will ever understand how the summer 88/89 were ...

I would sing to it and felt nervous for the road trip. Through out the years I’ve NEVER! Heard this song until I was eating Panda Express a couple hrs ago and this song played in a teen drama movie that my gf was watching. As soon as I heard it, I just froze and nothing but forgotten flashbacks and memories suddenly burst! It was an emotional moment because I would always bug my dad about the song and sang it the whole 4 days. My dad died a couple of years ago from diabetes. RIP Dad! I miss you ❤️.

    My grandpa used to play this kind of music a lot when I was in the car with him kinda creeped me out in the beginning. Now it brings me such an amazing nostalgic feeling, goosebumps rush through the body. Amazing song

    When this song first came out I never heard of too many of these places.... But now all these years later, I've been to a few of them. Have to say that Palau is my favorite. Been there 2x, but flying there kicks your ass.

    My Mother was a huge Enya fan so I would hear this and others all of the time but as a kid I could never understand the lyrics of the song. I always thought it was sung in another language. Thanks for this.
