  Vacations are personal right? Its about engaging yourself in anything you want to do and taking millions of pictures doing so! You're going through your friends albums on Facebook and you feel green with envy because they spent the summer in Paris. Be jealous no more! You might want to check out the book "Fake Holidays" which features the creative work of Reiner Riedler. What is Fake Holidays about?
  
  Its a project he started in Germany years ago where he photographs places that aren't real. After being inspired by an artificial summer beach, he made an effort to visit these fake scenery places and make a book out of it! Its basically putting yourself in the photo of a fake beach, but not really being there. Or, a better version of putting your face in the hole of one of those bodies like this:

  Tropical Islands, Germany
  
  
  Window of the World, China
  
  If you capture the image at the right angle, by all means, you can just say you went to these places! No Photoshop skills necessary!
  
  Would you visit these man made places? Would you fake a vacation and pass it off as though you went?
