Hi everyone,

This is my first post in these forums. I'm very excited because I just booked my first trip to Europe! I decided to go on the Inspiration Tour because it sounds great! I initially wanted "European Impressions", but that one doesn't include Rome. I don't think you can go to Italy and not visit Rome. Smiler However, the "Impressions" has Barcelona, Spain, which is really important to me because being Mexican, I obviously have some Spanish background. But I decided that Spain deserves a special tour in the future, so I finally decided for "Inspiration", besides this one goes to Rome, Berlin, and Prague (which I heard is beautiful).

Is anyone going on this tour?

My name is Luis...I'm from Mexico, but I've lived in the USA for a long time. My residence is in California (near Palm Springs). I'll be flying from LAX on July 26.

I hope to meet a lot of great people. Being a teacher, my passion has always been to travel and bring a little culture to my students.


Greetings,

Luis Barraza-Lugo Wink

Hi Luis,

I am going on the Inspiration tour that leaves a few days before yours. I chose the tour for very similar reasons as you did. Counting down the days til I leave Oz, and can't wait.

Hey

I think i'm gonna be on this tour too. My name is Chatu and I'm a 25 year old banker from Auckland New Zealand. This is my first trip to Europe and my first time travelling alone. So as you can imagine, i'm a little nervous, don't quite know what to expect. Hopefully i can get to know a few ppl before the trip!!

Ciao

Nice to meet both of you...Sarah and Chatz.

Sarah, if I may ask , where are you from?

We will be meeting in less than two months. I'm very excited about this trip and it will also be my first one to Europe.

Wow! There will be a lot of people from other countries. I truly like learning about other cultures. Hope to meet you both and have a great time together.

Greetings,

Luis Smiler

Hi Luis,
As you probably guessed from the other post i am from England. I would be more than happy to help you lot around London but I dont live in London and therefore dont know my way around that well, if i can help then i will.
Also reading your post i noticed that you were a teacher. I am currently working at a school and i am going back to university in sep to do my teacher training. So we have something in common! What do you teach?
Im sure you will like Europe, (I find it relatively normal!) i have been to Paris and Amsterdam before. I am still excited about going there again, Amsterdam is absolutely amazing...not because of the naughty stuff...but the people are just so nice in Holland.
Anyway, if i can help you with anything else let me know.
Sarah
