Tourism service activities a small part of our offer, but are a nice complement to our primary activity (cheesmaking). (May, 2020)

CHALLENGES

There are changing travel conditions and challenging times if you want to travel. But there are also cuttings in your personal life, like the university life. I haven't seen my colleagues from university since February. The learning from home is challenging because no one could tell you how you should do it, its new for everyone. At work, we had short-time work for about half a year, and we still don't know what happens next. (October, 2020)

CONCERNS

The struggle many face either because they become so dependent on travelling (for ex. bloggers, vlogers etc) or because of it (people in small places that have no other means to survive, or have forgotten the struggles of life because tourism was the easiest thing to do).

The idea that nothing will be the same "easy" as before.. The idea of adapting, inovation...the idea of not knowing what will happen. (April, 2020)

IDEAS

I would be so happy if we would reduce the massive production and replace plastic with more nature-friendly materials, promote more conscious way of travelling and with a purpose, reduce flights and help locals by buying their products. I would also promote domestic tourism so less people would travel long-distances. Supporting artists and other creators would be my biggest wish so they could reach out to the world and sustain their life with their work of art. (April, 2020)

I CAN OFFER

I am trying to help old people from our village to go to store for them and get them what they need or help them order things from online store beacause many of them dont know how to do it. (March, 2020)

I NEED

It would be nice to hear more ideas and support from professors at my institution as well as other institutions that are leaders in hospitality/tourism and/or business in how to react in these times (i.e. Cornell, HBS, Michigan State, etc.). (April, 2020)
