Connection

[Dominik Daoust]

I'm sitting here in Miami at my mom's place and I have a question that I have been thinking about the last days : how do I connect to culture and people when I travel? Many thing when trought my mind, and I was wondering also how people connect to a place and their people, do they really connect?? May be that's the first question to be ask... Do you ? Is it important to connect to a place? What is the gain of connecting ? Why some people don't connect ?
I would like to hear from you.
Love Dominik

Hi Dominik,
September is one of the best periods to visit southern Europe and now it is very convenient to fly anywhere iinside Europe or even with the high speed train (so that you can enjoy the landscapes).
I am based in Rome, near the Pope. Should you need any help do not hesiste to cantac me. Ciao. :-)

Great... Nice comment Marc. Cultural diversity add an aesthetic shade to the travel experience. This world has a rich diversity of different cultures, but still, has unique features of humanity in common.
Anyways, I'm a travel agent from Colombo & looking for a reliable inbound operator from Italy. Would like to contact you soon.

Nice Web site !! I agree, to connect we need to be open to experience the places we go....
I'm going to Europe this summer with my HD Cam to shoot couple cities, I might go to Italy in september... where are you located ? let's keep in touch

Hi Dominik,
I believe trying to connect with local people is part of the discovery of a different culture when you travel, and it allows you to better unlock many other secrets of the place visited (history, art, entertainment, food, etc) in a entertaining way. For istance...they say "in Rome do as the Romans do", so whenever you will come to Italy and Rome I will be glad to help you to explore its secrets and also see it as the locals do, through my guided tours at www.pontuali.com/marco
