TOURISM MEANS

Tourism has been employing me for 25 years. Given that this is a multiplicative activity that is alive and constantly changing, it also brings new challenges. Work in tourism is in all prespectives related to people. Tourist workers are also the best promoters of tourist destinations. (August, 2020)

CHALLENGES

Challenges I faced had a lot to do with the closing of borders and travel restrictions. It was not possible to travel to other countries even if it feels like your own. For me there was no border between Bavaria and Austria and it didn't feel any different being in Germany. Suddenly there was a border and it was not possible to go hiking anymore where you always went. Also going to your own flat in Italy was not possible anymore. It felt like somebody locked you out of your own apartment. (September, 2020)

How will I sustain my life in the future? Global crisis will affect us all on the long term, but especially young generations will have to provide some solutions and different approaches in a matter of business. (April, 2020)

IDEAS

After crisis I want to invest more in local tourism, Slovenian tourism and help our people as much as I can. I will still go and visit destinations out of the country but I will for a change also go somewhere in Slovenia that I have never been yet. #supportlocal (April, 2020)

I CAN OFFER

Before taking a trip, I will check every detail of the local conditions from the Qiongyou App to decide where , how and when I will go to enjoy my journey. From that web, lots of uploaders shared their experience of their trip,which was including the bitter or sweet memories. Lots of members in Qiongyou App was built a net trip community which is attracting lots of people to follow their footprits. (April, 2020)

OTHER / SPOTTED

I would suggest that at the end of this current crisis, as many organizations come together and try to help one another. Maybe one at that moment has more financial resources, the other more employees and thus support each other, because that is the only way for the states, organizations ... to recover. (March, 2020)
