Because why stay on campus?

Here's a spring break destination you may have never thought of – Scottsdale. Arizona. Have you ever thought about heading West and seeing what's so great about the desert life? Have you met people from that area that insist that it is better than the East coast and you haven't believed them? I myself was an East Coast Only sort of gal, until a friend proposed that I go with her to Scottsdale during our spring break.

It was a big risk for me, because I was planning on doing the more traditional Daytona Beach sort of spring break, with constantly screaming and carrying on and crowds and crowds of people. As soon as I landed in Scottsdale, though, I was hooked. It's so strange to get off a plane and just feel like you've arrived home.

I instantly loved just how many parks there were, how much nature was a big part of the lifestyle there, and how much history there was. There were a lot of places to hike, ride horses, and play golf, and there were a lot of spas, which was great, especially after the hectic semester I had been having in school. The nightlife is fantastic! There are lots of bars to go to with life entertainment.

My friend and I were able to find Scottsdale lodging with no problems, which would have probably been an issue had I gone to the place I originally intended to go on for spring break. In fact, a Scottsdale rental was not only easy to find, but affordable as well. Condos in Scottsdale Az are absolutely breathtaking. The area is just beautiful, rich in culture and nature.

Going to Scottsdale, Arizona was probably one of the most rewarding experiences I've had so far during spring break. It was an unexpected surprise and a welcomed one, because I now have an entirely different view of Arizona. Thanks to my friend, I was given another destination to choose from for my next spring break vacation and this time I think I'm going to ask other friends to join us as well. After all, they need some rest and relaxation too.
