My trip to Mongolia

This article discusses my trip to Mongolian capital Ulaanbataar and its surroundings. The first part is mainly about Ulaanbataar and its blend of communist regime remnants and new influences of globalization, clash of traditions and trends, and about the offer of food and drinks in the city. This section also touches the Mongolian way of life, prevalently tied to the city conditions. The second part deals with hiking to Bogd Khaan Mountain. This environment without too many people brought an opportunity to get to know some of them on a personal level and to learn more about Mongolian customs and traditions. This is emphasized in the third part where the main weekend getaways for people of Ulaanbataar are described along with the first-handed experience of the people, food and traditional way of life in the steppes.

People are Willing to Do Crazy Stuff

Everybody has some time to spare during their days. No one is so occupied that he/she cannot take time for their health. Especially in this coronavirus time, some understand how important our health is, others stay oblivious of this fact. I realised that health is important years ago when I didn’t feel fine with myself and also with my time management. I needed a change in my life. So I began running. The first few steps were hard, then as the time flew by, I enjoyed it more and more. In this essay, I will explain how it all began, and how I invested my free time into running.

A Display of Authentic Literary Tourism in Maribor: The Case of the Poet andGeneral Rudolf Maister

Literary Tourism is one of the fastest growing forms of Tourism, so we investigated it in relation to authenticity. In the theoretical part, we conducted a literature review, where we were introduced to Literary Tourism and authenticity, in connection with the city of Maribor, and poet and General Rudolf Maister. Considering that Maister's birthplace and place of creation is not Maribor, we determined how Literary Tourism could be authentic there, so we established a literary route for monuments and objects named after him. We also took part in the research, and found that it is characterised by an approach of existential authenticity, since each person in the group experienced it on an individual level in their own way.

A Student Can Also be a Tourist: I Studied in Vilnius

Studying abroad is considered by many to be an adventure. Going somewhere as a student, without a care in the world, sounds exciting. Most of times students choose more “exotic” destinations, but I chose Vilnius in Lithuania. Vilnius may sound boring, but as I found out, it has more than meets the eye. Beautiful landscape, history, architecture, food and drink, and it has character. Vilnius, and perhaps all of the Baltic states, are hidden gems. These are the places where history is combined with myths and religion. When you travel, you always find something new and unexpected. I learned to love these places, and also returned a couple of times. I am also happy to call the people I met and studied with, friends. Students should study abroad and maybe experience a different life. The experience is something that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

Fairytale Celje 2019 Through the Eyes of a Visitor

This paper deals with the traditional annual holiday event held in Celje called Fairytale Celje and how the visitor or guest experiences the event Fairytale Celje. Fairytale Celje begins with the festive lighting of the city's holiday lights, which takes place on the last day of November, and ends with the New Year's Eve party on the last day of the year. In the festivities of the old town of Celje visitors can find many different events, concerts, celebrations and various offers of local culinary delights and themed products. The creators of Fairytale Celje and the Municipality of Celje, as the main organising force behind the event, ensure that the traditional annual event is always varied, and that there is something new each year for younger and older visitors alike. For this paper we visited the event in 2019, but also because we were interested to find out if the experience of Fairytale Celje is truly »magical«. We started our Fairytale Celje 2019 experience at Krekov Square and experienced Fairytale Celje through the eyes of a visitor, we believe that the event captures the essence and purpose of Christmas tradition and festivities.

Visiting Austrian Salzburg

The article talks about my own travel experience, which happened last year in the winter holidays in advent time. My boyfriend and I visited Salzburg with a Tourist Agency for the first time. It was a one-day trip by bus. It was a pleasant experience. We had a great time there regardless of the low temperature. We saw many sights and interesting points and learnt something new about Salzburg. We got to experience the city in the night-time and the Christmas market happening as well. What we noticed about this trip is that Salzburg was not so decorated in advent time when comparing it with Vienna, which was our previous trip. We found out through the whole time that there was enormous crowd of people present. Because of the crowd we had to supply our own food and drinks, because restaurants were all full. We had to keep an eye on our personal items as well.Despite this, I would recommend Salzburg because of soaking up the Christmas atmosphere and experiencing the city'senergy.
