1. A
combination of accommodation and transport, a camper van is a great way to get
around. You can spend your holiday at your own pace and enjoy some quality time
with your family. As you are in charge of the driving, you can choose your own
routes. But perhaps the best thing of all is having your own conveniences on
board to make trip easier.
2. If
you fancy the idea of getting away from the congestion in the city and would
like to experience what life used to be like in the past, then come and join us
at “River Farm”. We are an organic farm that does more than just grow
vegetables! We also educate the population about the environment. We seek
gardeners who are available this summer. Benefits include a weekly salary,
private housing and a beautiful, relaxing environment.
3. You
will be met at Beijing International Airport by one of our representatives and
taken to your accommodation. The following morning we will commence our journey
to Simatai by luxury coach, where your adventure will begin. Please, make sure
you have comfortable shoes as the Great dragon, winds up and down!
4. It
was an unbelievable experience – the scenery so white and yet there were
varieties of white I had never seen before. The giant icebergs we sailed past
were almost close enough to touch; the penguins and seals ignored our presence
and continued their usual business. And in the far distance I caught sight of a
whale. Amazing!
5.
Inside the diving cage my knees began to shake. Then, as if out of nowhere, the
great white shark appeared. Brought by the smell of the sardines, it circled
near me, its razor-sharp teeth just centimeters away. Its powerful body shook
the boat before it descended back into the depths of the ocean.
6. Can
you imagine going on a journey and not knowing where you are going to go?
Perhaps you would like to take a risk or leave the decision to
someone/something else? Then all you need is dice. Throw it and decide where to
turn – odd numbers mean turn left, even turn right. You never know what
surprises lie ahead!
7. Yoga
is a journey of discovery where we learn to value ourselves and understand who
we are. The practice of yoga is said to improve a person’s health and
well-being. Its aim is to bring together our material, physical, mental,
intellectual and spiritual levels so that we feel at peace with ourselves.
