Travel Further of your Horizons
It’s a really big world out there, full of myriads of wonders and limitless diversity. Every step along our discovery journeys can provide a surprise, a challenge, a different perspective, a learning experience leading to new insights, creative innovation, and personal growth, as long as we are willing to explore with minds wide open.
Our trips are designed to cover the entire planet in the best and most comprehensive way possible. The number 80 is mostly indicative and used for emphasis, as in practice the number may vary, depending on the individual interests of each traveller.
- We are searching for the uniqueness of each destination, like beaches in the Caribbean, monuments in Rome, monasteries in Tibet, bazaars in the Middle East, safaris in Africa.
- We are searching for the modern aspect of each destination as well, not only for the historic or ancient, including the lifestyle and daily lives of the local people.
- We are searching for an integrated experience, including elements of natural, cultural, archaeological, folkloric and sociological interest.
- We are searching for the actual reality, not just the tourist showcase, including the rich and the poor, the old and the modern, the beautiful and the ugly.
