Tourism is a powerful force for progress and mutual understanding. But in order to deliver its full benefits, this force must be protected and nurtured.
🌳Today, the climate emergency is threatening many travel destinations and the very survival of communities and economies that depend on tourism. Many developing countries that are severely affected by a changing climate are also facing a growing investment deficit and a cost-of-living crisis.
On this World Tourism Day, we recognize the vital need for green investments to build a tourism sector that delivers for people and the planet.

Do you know what is the MARCH EQUINOX –or PAWKAR RAYMI?
The March Equinox, called Pawkar Raymi, celebrates the Pachamama, or Mother Earth. Rains generally start in the Andes sometime in November. By March, those rains bring forth fruits and flowers. Therefore, the March Equinox is a time of harvest in the Southern Hemisphere and along the Equator.
Many Andean communities gather for Pawkar Raymi on or near the actual equinox, on March 20th. These celebrations are often called Mushuk Nina. It is common to see these events advertised as the Andean New Year but the actual translation is “new fire” (mushuk = new; nina = fire). Fire is one of the four elements important in Andean cosmology. Fire cleanses and brings renewal. Happy Equinox!!
