Who Are Your Travel Companions? Thirty Perfect Strangers!
Despite a late arrival the night before in Athens, somehow I made an early morning ferry to Santorini, walking through a sleeping Plaka, not considering whether my packed belongings made sense, carrying the heaviest bag all the way to the port. This was 20 year-old planning. No water or food. No clear idea of the destination. Only that I wanted to see Greece. This meant ferrying to some of the farthest islands.?
After eight hours on the ferry, everyone seemed to exit and wander up the winding steep road to the youth hostel. I followed. Without a sleeping sheet, sleep eluded me. My belongings were alongside like a security blanket. Early the next morning - no communal shower for me- I left to find better accommodations.
With surprising ease I found a room overlooking the caldera. It was April, early season, and quiet. The ocean glimmered. The sky was deep blue. Although small with a bed and simple desk, the room was about the stunning view, right there, next to the pathway, overlooking from up high.?
Sitting on the wall, looking out at possibility, being with myself, I felt confident about meeting others. Although sometimes it does not feel this way, we're not alone in the world. My adventure had begun.
After too many years away, towards the end of October I will travel again to the Greek Islands with IWorld of Travel, aboard their newest deluxe small ship, the Elysium. On this “Divine Cyclades” cruise, I will embark with “30 Perfect Strangers”.??
The familiarization trip is way more than a tour. When booking private groups the travel becomes about the destination and the chance to deepen relationships with your travel companions. Life is so much richer when shared.
IWorld of Travel’s mantra is “friendship first, business second”. CEO, Michael Gelber, further shares, “You will discover with this group,...that it’s not our sameness that brings us together, but our individual uniqueness that marks each of our FAM groups so rewarding and complete.”
*We’re not alone in this world.?
*Gather your people.?
*Be yourself within the whole.

1 年Amy, the concept of "30 Perfect Strangers" is intriguing, emphasizing the idea that travel not only introduces us to new destinations but also to new people and deeper connections. How do you believe the experience of traveling with a group of strangers enhances the journey compared to solo trips or traveling with familiar companions?

1 年Amy Quinn I have a lot of family and friends that traveled to Greece this year and they had a great time. My husband and I were also planning a trip and then had a change in plans. Which islands are your favorites?
