Title – Healing Touch

Date – 25th June 2006
No expensive skin lotions endorsed by Hollywood stars here, this is the extreme of cultural difference to be found while you travel round the world, the haling touch of a terrapin is something we will not find in Boots here in the UK. Embracing the cultural differences between your own country and that of the one you are visiting will allow you better appreciate and enjoy your new surroundings, but some local traditions you may want to avoid by slipping a bottle of moisturising cream into your backpack before you leave.

We run Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety & Awareness workshops for anyone thinking of setting off to tour the world or a small part of it. These courses cover all aspects of travel safety as well as Cultural Awareness training to allow individuals attending to get a sound basis and understanding of each new country they visit and the benefits of embracing these cultural encounters. This not only enables you to appreciate the country you are visiting but also allows you to show respect to the people living in these countries.
