Hey Travel Lover
Amy Poehler says āFind a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life."
Do you believe these words? Do you like making new friends? Do you enjoy team bonding activities?
I believe my colleagues have changed my life significantly. I love making new friends, no secret thereš¤and my favorite team bonding activity definitely has to include travelling.
In 2022, during my mini Euro tour, the final city I visited was Zurich. It was all I had read it to be and more. On the cab ride to my hotel, I saw a Museum named WOW, and the lettering was really fancy. I checked it out on Google and saw it was a tourist attraction.
While giving myself an invisible pat on the back for the hotel location, I made a mental note to visit WOW. As the deal goes with most hotels, Check in late, Check out early. The check in time at my hotel was 3pm. Unfortunately, I arrived earlier and there was no room ready. Itching for some action, I decided to make a quick stop to the WOW museum seeing that it was a walking distance from my hotel.
I did a super fast access fee payment at the museum entrance and immediately starting looking at what fun activity I could do. A quick glance at my phone jolted me to realityā¦with a 7% battery level, this will be a waste with no moments or memories to capture. I hurried back to the hotel and grabbed my charger, hurray for āfast chargeā. On my way back, it was a slow unhurried leisurely walk. I just wanted to take things easy.
At WOW, I spotted this lovely lego board where I stopped and spelt the first three letters of my name, then I took loads of selfies, either with extra long legs or super short legs. Some I saw multiples of myself. Some I didnāt understand what the illusion was.
I had been seeing a group of people walk together and chatter happily. The lovely Celine was a member of this group, new friend alertā¦. I asked if she could take some photos and she happily obliged.
There was this part of the museum that had a lot going on(picture from Google below). It was one of those illusions I was trying to figure out what exactly it was, then, Celineās boisterous group comes in and started taking position. I really wish I whipped out my phone fast enough because before I knew it, one of the gentlemen was upside down the horizontal pole, hanging by his knees. Then the funniest thing happened, all the coins in his pocket tumbled out. It is one moment that is etched in my memory forever.
Afterwards, I met Celine and she mentioned her team came in from Lausanne for Team bonding at WOW Museum and the guy who stayed upside down in the photo was her boss. We exchanged numbers took this gorgeous selfie and till date we chat once in a while
So Travel Lover, do your colleagues challenge and inspire you? Do you like making new friends? Do you enjoy team bonding activities? Awaiting your responses in the comments section.
Till Next Week
Live, Love, Laugh
