Alongside Christmas sweets, family gatherings and feasts, this time of year is known for compilations and lists of resolutions that this year Yes, we will. We have prepared our list for 2018. Do you already have yours?
I am sure many of you have an item on your list that says: “This is the year I finally Make that trip. that I have always wanted». This is usually a dream of somewhere far away, on the other side of the world.
Our aim on this trip is to see and photograph the Northern Lights and we’ll do so with Ignasi Rovira who will be responsible for accompanying us during this journey. He will be the one who, in the afternoon, will tell us about this phenomenon and give us practical advice on how to photograph them.
Since the northern lights are visible at night, weather permitting, we will use the daylight hours to enjoy excursions and activities typical of winter in the Lapland. And do not worry about the cold: before the activities begin, the organisers provide everyone with thermal clothing, consisting of a thermal suit, thick mittens and boots with inner liners.
The Timkat festival, is the most important festival for Ethiopian Orthodox believers. Timkat takes place every 19 January and lasts three days. Forty percent of Ethiopians identify as Christians and are among the Christian traditions oldest in the world. This celebration of Epiphany recalls Jesus' baptism in the Jordan River with ritual recreation and parades with replicas of the Ark of the Covenant.
I’m sure many of you still remember a family trip when you were little. Because travel leaves its mark on all of us, but especially on children that, however young they are, those memories will surface as they grow older, reminding them of their first family trips.
We know that many of you have doubts about travelling with the youngest members of the family because some of the journey is long and involves intercontinental flights. Who does not remember those endless road trips when we were children? None of us was traumatised! Things have changed, and a 10-hour flight with all the comforts available today is no trouble for children.
