Who, What, Where: a Philosophy of Travel
The Art of Living Advantage: Why Travel with Us
Who we are:
We have some 20 years experience arranging amazing journeys, culinary and gastronomic vacations and yoga retreats.
Our expertise has included these various destinations: Australia’s and New Zealand’s wine regions, Portugal, Spain, France, Turkey, Ireland, Bali, China and throughout India.
Moreover, our principal, Marieke Brugman has organized events for 2 and events for 800.
What We Offer:
We offer an annual portfolio of guided, escorted trips for small groups bound in their enthusiasm for roads less travelled, by their inquisitiveness, their passion for people, places and adventurousness.
In 2009 and 2010 our wonderful destinations include India, Spain, France and Bali. On the horizon is Japan and Indochina.
We do not offer packages, we create experiences.
We certainly travel in great style and luxurious comfort, but what makes our journeys so memorable are special touches like the most fascinating guides, the more scenic and slow road, that really special hotel and its best rooms, exceptional cuisine and culinary tastes, and an ambience that is conducive to new and lasting friendships.
Our trips peel back the surface layers, so you enjoy the unexpected, have your curiosity ignited, your senses and sensibilities nourished, your memories cherished, your personal freedoms respected, your expectations excelled.
“Travel does what good novelists also do to the life of everyday, placing it like a picture in its frame or a gem in its setting, so that the intrinsic qualities are made more clear. Travel does this with the very stuff that everyday life is made of, giving to it the sharp contour and meaning of art.” –Freya Stark
