    I so agree with this! I lived in Venice for a few months as a study abroad student, and it's such an incredibly magic place once you spend some more time there and get to know it. Actually, Venice was the place that ignited my love for travel--I've been to 50 countries since and all because I got to know it. Thanks for sharing the really beautiful parts of such an amazing place!

I consider myself a lucky one to have visited this magical place. My memory of my trip is still fresh in my mind and this video makes me think of Venice again n again in a bitter sweet way...just as a human being who appreciates the wonders of this world.

  • @dbb96ac
    @dbb96ac Před 4 lety

    So nice to see a sponsored video that isn’t just promoting a product or service. Well done! This was a beautiful story that captured the feel of a calm and cultured Venice. As tourism increases around the world, and more opportunities to buy packaged experiences foster a growth in non independent travel, I see many tourists treating destinations as places to be consumed rather than explored. 20 years ago, all I had was a lonely planet guide book, a backpack, word of mouth suggestions and a point and shoot camera which was rarely used, as film was difficult to get processed while on the road. It amazes me how quickly tourism has changed. It just pushes independently minded travellers to seek out connections and experiences beyond Europe’s “Top 25”. Nice to see in Venice, all you have to do is leave the central tourist area. Thanks!

They are paying me $95 per hour, and the best thing regarding it is that I am not really that tech-savvy, they just asked for basic understanding of internet and common typing skill...Great thing about it is that I have more free time with my kids. I am able to spend quality time with my family and friends and take care of my babies and also going on holiday together with them very frequently.
