Dear friends and colleagues,
Yesterday, the 23rd of February, we celebrated again the annual event of the Treasure Hunt nt, that is organised ny The Association of Licensed Tourist Guides, Athens-Greece to celebrate the International Guides Day (21st of February)!
It has become a part of the events that are being organised in the city of Athens..
But this Treasure Hunt is not to discover something that doesn't exist like Indiana Jones. It doesn't give you a real treasure with jewels and coins at the end!
The real Treasure is the knowledge, that is obtained by learning little, sometimes unnecessary information, by the volunteers Licenced Tourist Guides!
Another Treasure, very important and crucial as well, is the participation, the communication, the contact with other people, friends and acquaintances, the smiles, the comments, this need for a human contact!
All these things make us the guides to continue what we are doing and trying to improve ourselves every year!
We would like to thank, the father - the one who created it, Kriton Piperas and the organiser @Julie Triantafyllou and of course all the volunteers that we willing to welcome the 500 people and offer them knowledge and good time!
We would like go thank as well the @City of Athens- Culture, Sports and Youth Organisation (OPANDA)!
And last but not least, we would like to thank all of you, that welcomed this idea, support it and expect its announcement every year and of course your participation that keeps growing!
But we are not done! The ones that ended and found the treasure hunt have got a guided tour next Sunday, on the 2nd of March! We are waiting for you!
