Hawaii, USA
Hawaii is an archipelago of over nineteen distinct volcanic islands located over a geological "hot spot" in the Central Pacific. The Pacific plate on which the islands ride moves to the northwest, so in general the islands are older and smaller (due to erosion) as you move from southeast to northwest. There are eight major islands, six of which are open to tourism.
New York City, USA
The metropolis of New York(also referred to as "New York City" or "the Big Apple") is at the mouth of the Hudson River in southern New York state.

The New York Metropolitan Area extends across three states—including lower New York (including parts of Long Island), northern New Jersey and parts of southwestern Connecticut.

Colorado Springs, USA
Colorado Springs is a city in Colorado, USA. It is the second largest city in the state, behind Denver not far to the north, and defines the northeastern tip of the south central region of the state. Attractive mountain scenery is nearby.
Quebec, Canada
As the only French speaking area in North America, the Province of Quebec is most certainly unique. Home to the separate native tribes of the Abenakis, Algonquian, Attikameks, Cree, Huron-Wendats, Innuu, Inuit, Malecites, Micmacs, Mohawks and Naskapis the first western settlers arrived in 1534. Jacques Cartier was the first westerner to set foot on the Quebec peninsula and claimed the area for France. Samuel de Champlain founded the city of Quebec in 1608 with King Louis XIV of France granting the status of Royal Province in 1663.

The city is officially divided into 16 "Delegaciones" (boroughs) and thereafter into smaller "Colonias" (neighborhoods), however, it is better to think of the City in terms of districts to facilitate the visitor getting around. Many older towns like Coyoacán, San Angel and Tlalpan got merged into the urban sprawl, and each of these still manages to preserve some of its original character.
