Latest news:

The 2020 pandemic and previous years’ overtourism issues showed us both the benefits, the relevance, and the limits of the tourism, hospitality and leisure industries for society. We cannot foresee the future, but we can listen to challenges and start developing solutions.

  1. How should we IMAGINE tourism now that we have an opportunity to reset the way we do business?
  2. Which CHANGES would you like to see? If any?
  3. What are your CHALLENGES and CONCERNS?
  4. What are your IDEAS and SOLUTIONS to make it through the pandemic AND into a sustainable and innovative future of tourism?

TOURISM MEANS

Travelling for me is pushing myself out of the comfort zone and going into the unknown. It broadens your mind and gives you experience only you have. The trip to Cuba gave me a lot of first time experience. From buying and smoking my first cigar and exploring the history of that amazing country. If it wasn’t for that trip I would never find my love for cigars and that is the point of travelling for me. It’s not about the short term experience that travelling provides but about the long term experience that changes you for the rest of your life. (May, 2020)

I had to find a concept to be able to follow my job as a mountainbike guide and a tennis teacher. I had to split the customers into smaller groups and because of that I made 1/4 more hours than last year by the same salary. (October, 2020)
