We are very impressed at how there awareness- raising events were welcome in different locations we were and from different groups of people involved, from high school pupils, to university students and even older age people who are interested in tourism and its development in our country.

This time we went to visit a group of pupils in a rural area near the city of Elbasan, called Gostime. Here there were gathered pupils from different even more rural areas but with very rich history, culture, archaeology and agriculture and nature, like the villages of Floq, Gjyrale, Pazhok, Mollas etc.

Being that the social life of these youngsters is very poor usually due to the lack of activities and opportunities, they offered us a very warm welcome and we were felt like at home. As in the whole Albania , even these areas are suffering from very high numbers of youngsters’ migration, so raising awareness on the possibilities to work, get self-employed and become an entrepreneur in Eco and Agro tourism in these areas, came like a ray of hope for these pupils that were present, and were interested in tourism, history, nature and culture.
