My Trip
Trip=experience= adventure
Experience of freedom, experience of nature, breathtaking views, social bonding, excitement
At the word – “trip “hear fluttering with excitement, the butterflies move to the stomach. Anticipation immediately grows in us. Curiosity arises in us and preparations begin.
Who of us doesn’t remember trips of childhood with school, with family, with friends or with Youth Movement.
Which child would not be happy when he hears about a trip.
“There are “! Children jumping of happiness.
“What a fun, we have two more days to travel.
“Wow, sleeping in the field? In tents? How interesting it will be!”.
“I have never slept in a hostel, let’s organize the rooms.”
“Shall we bring sleeping bags? are we allowed to bring sweets”?
“Finally clear your head and change the atmosphere, to rest”.
“We haven’t gone on a trip in a long time, let’s load the car”.
Those sentences etched in our memory and express the feeling of happiness and the experience of trip that goes with people from one year old to one hundred years old.
As a Tour Guide I have set myself a goal to keep the experiences of trips and to add on to them a layer of meaning, studying with fun, developing curiosity creativity and encouragement.
It is very important for me to cause children and adults to ask questions, be interested in many fields, pay attention to small astonishing details.
Expose the travelers to new flavors, smells, colors, music and sounds.
It’s very important for me to finish every trip with flavor of more.
Trips for Individuals
Trips for Families
Trips for Groups
A trip for me is an experience of freedom, an experience of nature, breathtaking views, social formation, excitement.
