Classroom time!


Monday fun day in the classroom! After the exploring time yesterday, today has been time for sitting in classroom and learning something new. And we actually have learnt something. We are interested in sharing that knowledge with you. So, let’s start.

The first topic was including developing and marketing a destination (a region) as wellness destination by lecturers Heli Tooman and Gristel Leetma. Did you know that is possible to define wellness as a balanced channeling energy, the long acceptance of yourself? It is the integration of body, mind and spirit. You know, it’s all about individuals and it can become a more successful lifestyle.

By doing some kind of a personal wellness quiz, we actually found out if we are healthy people in all dimensions or we could use improvement in some areas. It turned out that we all have a well lifestyle, but the conclusion is that there is always space for making some changes to take care better care of ourselves. Here is an example of the quiz, you should try to fulfill it (be careful, because of the problems with photo shooting, it is necessary to zoom in the picture). :-)

And do you know what is shown on this photo? No? It is the Wadden Sea, a beautiful and dynamic landscape and it was placed on the World Heritage List by UNESCO in 2009. Wadden Sea was proposed by the trilateral cooperation of Germany, Netherlands and Denmark. Speaking of World Heritage List, did you know that there are around 980 heritage sites in the world? At least, Konstantin Gridnevsky and Steffen Fokkemma told us so. ;-)

Konstantin's lecture was about brand, more exactly, about place branding and place branding image. Kind of confusing, but we must admit, his explanation was really good.

But enough talking, in our opinion, now it is time for some relaxation. Let's go to the beach!
