San Andreas

Many may be wondering as to why one would want to travel to San Andreas. Surely the states corruption, gangs and violence is reason enough to keep it from ones travel itinerary? You are right, hence why San Andreas is not for the faint hearted. However, it is undeniable that you will be missing out if you choose not to add this amazing destination to your itinerary.

 

San Andreas offers accommodation at all three of its beautiful cities, Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas. Although, I highly recommend staying a few nights in each, you will be able to venture the whole state in no time if you stay in the one city.

Los Santos 

This city is said to be a model of Los Angeles, as many describe it to have very similar landmarks, districts and neighbourhoods. With the vast affordability, who wouldn't want to travel and stay at Los Santos.

Las Venturas                                                             

The city of Las Venturas, like Las Vegas is well known for its casinos and nightlife. Being the city that never sleeps, there is the potential to have a great time at any time. You can all see me with a firearm in the photo, this is because almost anything can be bought in Las Venturas. Although the availability for weapons means that danger could be around the corner, it was definitely an amazing experience being apart of such an open and free minded society.

San Fierro

San Fierro is the smallest metropolitan area in San Andreas, however it is most urbanised. The city was built based on San Francisco. One of the famous sites are the Gant Bridge, a recreation of the Golden Gate Bridge.

Now you see, the benefit of travelling to San Andreas is that you don’t need to be rich to be able to enjoy yourself there, in fact the sightseeing venues are limited. The true beauty of San Andreas lies in its lifestyle. If you are willing to leave your normal lifestyle and embrace a challenge of a completely different calibre, then this is definitely the place for you. Don’t be startled if you see gang members roaming the streets, police chases and real time crimes. In fact, that is part of the beauty of San Andreas. Every minute you are roaming the streets, your adrenalin is pumping never knowing what to expect. That is why the key is to always be a step ahead and live on your own basis. During my stay I adopted to take risks, becoming part of one of the well-known gangs who were known to hit the streets and cause a bit of havoc.  

You see, working to become part of the gangs can very well make your stay much more pleasant. Baring in mind that the risks associated with crime, violence and even death, will also rise once admitted into one of these gangs. Nevertheless, if you have the ability to play your cards right, you could very well experience all the advantages of being a gang member, regardless of the risky missions they send you on.

Now I know many of you may be scared by the idea of fending for yourself in such a place, but what San Andreas has to offer is beyond the norms of any other society. It is without a doubt a place full of adventure, and must be placed on your travel itinerary at some point in time since the experience is like no other.
