The hope of a reversal of the tourist trend leading the traveler <\/strong>to move towards committed and conscious discoveries is allowed. The hope of a profound shift at the level of the population itself, of a real awareness of the challenges of the current situation and of the possible remedies for the construction of a more committed future, is real. Our choices today will help us build our life tomorrow, we are now all convinced of it. Tomorrow is taking shape, at all levels, in harmony with the Other <\/strong>and in respect of the Living<\/strong>. A powerful exaltation is felt in this possibility of a total redistribution of the cards of each person towards a conscious future, even if many hopes will undoubtedly remain at the stage of utopias. <\/p>\nAdaptation and resilience for a meaningful journey of tomorrow<\/h3>\n
Adaptation, without forgetting respect for fundamental values<\/strong>, will be the watchword of tomorrow. Adapting to this reality now revealed in broad daylight, to the desires and needs of wanderers will allow us to find the right place in this necessary evolution and this process of awareness. <\/p>\nThe slow journey to the heart of the movement<\/h3>\n
Slowness, simplicity, proximity, humanity, nature, responsibility, sustainability and creativity are among the words that will now sing in our ears and resonate more and more intensely in our consciences.<\/p>\n
The reduction of mass tourism which is harmful to the planet<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe 20th century saw the birth of mass tourism. Will the 21st century allow tourism that cares for others<\/strong> to take its place? This global shock will have consequences, particularly sociological ones, but no one can definitively predict the direction this change will take. Who can say with certainty that the future will be great and that decisions will take the path of collective well-being and sustainability? Very often, there is a big difference between declarations, intentions and actual actions taken. For the moment, tourism is convalescing. After a period of withdrawal, it is gradually opening up to its destiny. This will probably have been conducive to the development of the notions of discovery of proximity, social cohesion, resilience and the creation<\/strong> of a tourist economy based on strong values and creativity. Let’s trust each other! Let’s move forward together, step by step, at our own pace, to allow the travel of tomorrow to take shape sustainably!
