GETTING INSPIRATION IN SICILY

Geplaatst op: 8 May 2024

FROM APRIL 18 TO 20, OUR ENTIRE PELECON TEAM TOOK AN UNFORGETTABLE TRIP TO SICILY. OUR ADVENTUROUS TRIP BEGAN WITH A FLIGHT TO CATANIA, WHERE WE SETTLED IN THE CHARMING VILLAGE OF GIARDINI NAXOX. IN THIS PICTURESQUE COASTAL TOWN, WE BOARDED TWO CATAMARANS THIS FIRST DAY.

On the second day an exciting excursion was planned: a 4×4 tour to Mount Etna. Nine rugged all-terrain vehicles took us towards this majestic volcano. Once there, we braved the elements on a hike that literally made us feel like we were on top of the world. The wind was howling around us and the snow and hail made the experience all the more intense. According to the local guides, this weather was not common for this time of year.

After this adventure, we had a choice: an exciting mountain bike ride to a wine tasting or a route by 4×4 through the rugged landscape. Either way, we were rewarded with a sumptuous lunch, followed by a fascinating tour and tasting, where we learned all about the craft of wine making.

The morning of the third day was free for everyone to spend. Most of us chose to explore the charming village of Taormina. At noon we gathered for a special activity: a pizza workshop. After kneading, topping and, of course, eating our own creations, we were divided into groups for an exciting game: the Treasure Hunt. This was followed by a tour with a professional touch in the theater, where we learned more about our field.

After three inspiring days, it was time to return to the airport, the end of a trip full of adventure and fun. That we are a nice club of people, we already knew that. But we got to know each other even better and we are convinced that this can only benefit the sociability, but especially the work.
