Lithuania & Orly
One of my first tasks was to sign the certificates, now normally we would be talking 25-30 a day.....when I arrived at the venue I had over 600 to sign......thankfully I had to do it over 3 days. Each seminar would have an average of 200 people, this was going to be a road trip from Villnius to Klaipeda and back again.
Working with Domas and Viktoras Lygnugaris from Vitrina - www.vitrinaprof.it, a family run distribution for nails, hair and beauty products. Their team couldn't be more welcoming and friendly.
Now one of my musts on any trip is to try the local foods, and one of the best dishes...and I say one, because there was a number of delicious meals to choose from, was the sauerkraut soup in a rye bread bowel.....just perfect after a day of seminaring.
Coming home with some super strength honey mead, enough to blow your head off...a great ingredient for a hot toddy. Along with some amazing cheese, and some great history information, I didn't realise just how rich the Lithuanian history was....worth a return visit with the family.
I love these trips, they are enlightening and a lesson. I had never spoken in front of such large crowds before not to mention 6 hours of it. But you know what I loved it...and looking forward to next time.....getting out of your comfort zone is hard...but well worth it.
It is interesting ......I promise |
