Ja, že kar nekaj dni je minilo, odkar se je začelo novo leto. In začelo se je precej bolj pestro, kot običajno. Zato tudi še nisem imela časa, da bi pripravila nek seznam stvari, ki jih želim doseči v novem letu. Pa pravzaprav nimam veliko stvari, ki jih želim doseči, enostavno si želim, da bi stvari ostale približno tako dobre, kot so bile doslej. In da nikogar ne izgubim. In… ja, tako nastanejo želje. A potem se pomislila na nekaj popolnoma norega.

Kaj, če bi pričela početi stvari, ki jih doslej še nisem? Ali pa stvari, ki sem jih že počela in so mi tako všeč, da bi jih še naprej počela. A vse skupaj bi skušala nekoliko razširiti. Ja, v mislih imam potovanja. Pa ne potovanja preko agencij. Potovala bi tako, kot sem potovala v Etiopijo, v London in na Šri Lanko. Potovanja, kjer si vse organiziraš sam. Potem, ko v času potovanj in po potovanjih delim svoja doživetja in fotografije na družabnih omrežjih, se pogosto oglasijo ljudje, ki mi rečejo: »Jooj Katja, tako uživaš na teh potovanjih. Tudi jaz bi tako potoval/a, a ne upam kar sam/a. Me lahko kdaj vzameš s sabo?« Ja, marsikdo to reče tako, v hecu. A jaz se s tem ne hecam. Res bi lahko. Resno razmišljam, da bi organizirala skupinice po 15 ljudi, ki bi želeli na potovanja po svetu. Ne na tista, ko imaš prej vse organizirano, pristaneš, se z avtobusom pelješ v hotel in tam uživaš en teden ali pa štirinajst dni. Ne, organizirala bi potovanja, kot je bilo 3-tedensko potovanje po Šri Lanki, kjer smo s puncami organizirale prenočišče samo za prve tri dni, nato je vse potekalo popolnoma spontano. Organizirala bi potovanja, kjer ješ lokalno hrano, se družiš z domačini, si trikrat premisliš, preden se odločiš, v kateri nastanitvi boš ostal, če ti je všeč enostavno podaljšaš še za kakšen dan, če ti ni pa greš. NAPREJ! Kamor ti SRCE poželi. Organizirala bi potovanja, kjer vidiš direktno v srce in v resnico neke države in ne samo luksuzno domovanje, ki ga imaš v času potovanja. Tam namreč ne nastanejo zgodbe. Prave zgodbe nastanejo, ko ti vidiš tako bogastvo kot revščino neke države, ko vidiš tako sanjske plaže, ki so predstavljene v reklamah kot tudi plaže, na katerih ni mogoče ležati zaradi onesnaženosti. To je namreč prava slika neke države. To je namreč tisto, kar bi vsak človek moral na potovanjih doživeti. Samo tako se potem naučiš spoštovati to, kar imaš doma.

Razmišljala sem, da bi se v tem letu vsaj za eno potovanje skušala soočiti s tem izzivom, ko bi vse skupaj organizirala za skupino vsaj desetih ljudi.

Yes, I know. It's been a while since the New Year started. It was quite wild, the start of the year I mean. That's why I still didn't have time to write some new year's resolutions. But, to be honest, I don’t have much of them. Mostly I want that the things will stay just the same as they were. But I did think about something crazy this year – to do things I never did. Or to do something I already did and would like to do more of those things. One thing is in my mind: TRAVELLING.

I already visited some of the countries and I would like to travel more. A lot of people say to me, that they are almost jealous when they see, how I travel to countries that are not so touristic. They always say: »Take me with you next time«. They are kidding. But people: I'M TAKING IT SERIOUSLY.

We could really travel together. I’m thinking to make a group of 10-15 people, who would like to go on trip with me. I would make a list of 3 countries and then we would see where the interest is the biggest. But attention: This would not be an usual travel like with the travel agency, where you land and drive with the bus directly to the hotel. Then you stay there for a week or two and then go back to the airport and home. No, I’m thinking about a travel for 10 – 14 days, where we would only organize the accommodation for the first night of our travel. Then we would GO WITH THE FLOW! We would eat well-known food and spend time with local people; we would seek for hidden places and be very picky while searching for a new accommodation. I would try to organize a travel, where you can see in the heart of the country, not only the peel. If we would like some place, we would stay for some more days, if we would hate it, we would go on. That’s the travel, where real stories happen. That kind of travel is for people, who don’t only want to lay down in a cozy hotel room, but want to experience stories that can be explained to your children and grandchildren.

So, I was thinking to organize at least one travel like this in year 2018. Can you imagine sharing it with me?
