Becoming Storytellers

In preparation for our travels, our group has reviewed packing lists, schedules, and focused on the logistics behind our travels. In addition, we took time to look at how our team will support each other and enhance each and every participant’s experience. Collectively we agreed to show great respect for others and ourselves by being timely, conscious of noise levels, observe host culture norms and follow them, accept ideas or thoughts from others and express our own needs. The travelers also targeted awareness accepting social cues from others, caring for our health and wellbeing, and understanding the impact our attitude will have on ourselves and the group. So much insight and thoughtfulness went into this brainstorming session and we are certain to have a cohesive, respectful and aware group of travelers.!

We would like to leave you with the following thoughts from Ibn Battuta, a Moroccan explorer of Berger descent.

“Traveling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.”

Our group of travelers will work hard to share some of these stories through our blogs in the coming weeks!
