Create Awesome Presentations with Free Templates from SlideHunter.com
When it comes to presentations, making your audience sit through a whole deck listening to what you have to say can be a big challenge. Let's admit it, people today have a short attention span. In order for you to make your audience sit still long enough to finish your slideshow is by making it vibrant and interesting. Therefore, when it comes to presentations, the more creative and unique your slides are, the better.
Your deck should not just catch your audience's attention but keep it closely glued, from your title slide down to the very last one. Being able to successfully grab the interest of the audience and effectively convey your message is a sure-fire sign of a successful presentation. However, in reality, you can't always create such successful presentations. There's the question of creatives, topic scope, preparation time, and resources. You might not have enough time to create your own presentations and passing the task onto another employee or subordinate has its own share of hassles, such as miscommunication, delays, overpriced projects, incompatibilities, and many others.
For these reasons and more, wouldn't it be nice to have easy and free access to a diverse collection of free PowerPoint backgrounds and templates for all your needs?
Create Stunning, Awesome Presentations Quickly and Easily:
Having presentation templates handy anytime you need them offers plenty of benefits. For one, creating presentations using templates can save you a lot of time compared to creating slide after slide from scratch.

Interior Doors Styles
New Home Door Style Names and Photos
Ever see homes with cool interior door styles, but don't know what they are called? Here is a quick guide to some of the most popular new home interior door styles - with pictures!
Each of these doors styles are taken from different custom homes built by Stanton Homes. Some of these designs will be familiar, and some should give you new ideas for your next home!
How are different types of doors defined? Generally, the number, shape, and size of panels will distinguish each door style.
Interior Door Style 1: The Rockport
The Rockport interior door style emphasizes a unique design with five horizontal rectangular panels.
See more photos showing this type of new home door design in this version of the Brogan - a craftsman style new home.
Interior Door Style 2: The Santa Fe
The Santa Fe interior door style is multi-dimensional - with radius top arch and five distinct panels above and below the mid rail (also called lock rail).
The Santa Fe style can have a vintage appeal - adding texture and design to every room of the home.
Interior Door Style 3: The Provincial
A Provincial interior door has four vertical panels with a cathedral arch split into the top two panels.
A cathedral arch has an extra "dip" in its curve, adding more attraction to the door.
Interior Door Style 4: The Avalon
The Avalon interior door design uses three different size rectangle panels - large on top, thin in the middle, and medium on bottom.
This particular example of an Avalon style door comes from a craftsman style Chapel Hill new home.
Interior Door Style 5: The Cambridge
Cambridge style doors tend to look more contemporary, with simple and clean lines.
The Cambridge door uses two raised panels, with a larger panel on top and smaller panel on bottom.
Interior Door Style 6: The Continental
Continental doors are very popular in new homes.
The curved top piece sets the door off, giving it more dimension against the straight lines of trim.
Interior Door Style 7: The Colonial
A Colonial door style, sometimes called "Bostonian," has six raised panels.
If you love classic American architecture, this may be the perfect door style for your new home.
Interior Door Style 8: The Princeton
The Princeton style uses a full cathedral arch (instead of the split cathedral arch in the provincial style).
This Princeton pantry door contrasts with the arched kitchen cabinetry style, emphasizing the architectural appeal of both styles.
New Home Design Help
Each of these popular door styles can be customized to fit your needs. At Stanton Homes, our interior design team will help you choose the door style that will compliment your home design.

Congressional Action Needed to Prevent Consumers From Losing Distant Network Signal Service
--FCC Grade B Order Will Spare Few Consumers--
ALEXANDRIA, VA, February 4, 1999 -- The Satellite Broadcasting and Communications Association (SBCA) responded today to the FCC's Report and Order on Satellite Delivery of Network Signals to Unserved Households for Purposes of the Satellite Home Viewer Act (SHVA) issued February 1, 1999. The satellite industry commended the FCC's quick turnaround and efforts to aid satellite consumers under limited time constraints. However, the Order will spare few of the hundreds of thousands -of eligible consumers who will lose the distant network signal service on February 28, 1999, because of the Miami Court order. The FCC has acknowledged that eligible consumers will unfairly lose their distant network signals, but determined that it does not have sufficient authority under the SHVA to remedy the problem. The industry calls for legislative action from Congress to change the Satellite Home Viewer Act.
"In spite of the FCC's best efforts, this decision will not prevent the shut-off of hundreds of thousands of eligible consumers who currently receive distant network signals via satellite by February 28," stated SBCA President Chuck Hewitt. "Only Congress can do that."

Multibillion deals have been signed between Samsung and Apple, and also between Samsung and LG. The deals are about supplying next generation RAM modules from Samsung to Apple and LG for their new flagship mobile phones, probably, Apple iPhone 6S (iPhone 7) and LG G4. This is what Korean media has disclosed recently; however, it is not exactly mentioned what type of RAM (random access memory) Samsung will be supplying to the other two tech giants.
Samsung's actions
Short while ago, Samsung made an announcement that the production of next generation DDR4 RAM and DDR3 RAM ("stackable" 3GB RAM/32 GB storage combo) has been started; both are made with 20nm process. There is a high chance that the deals are about DDR4. It is quite hard that Apple will accept anything less than that for the upcoming iPhone 7. On the other hand, LG has already released the G Flex 2 which is the first mobile phone with DDR4 RAM. Therefore, it is next to impossible that G4 is not going to have DDR4 RAM.
Industry reports
A source from the industry revealed that for LG G4 smartphone, LG Electronics will get 100% mobile DRAM chips from Samsung under this agreement. In the month of April, LG will unveil the G4 smartphone. Samsung is also going to provide the 50% amount Apple requires for its new iPhone that might be called iPhone 6S.
DDR4 is better
The question arises why DDR4 is a better choice for these two smartphones than DDR3. The advantages of DDR4 are many; it has double density; it has better I/O performance for starters; Samsung is willing to manufacture it with frugal 20nm production method. In short, everything about it is great. Moreover, the reports confirm that Samsung is going to supply more than 70% of Apple's new A9 chipset which is reserved for the iPhone 7. Therefore, Samsung's chip business will surely flourish.

Garry Newman, the developer behind the Half Life 2 mod Garry's Mod, just enabled an error message in the game that only appears when you run a pirated copy. If you're unfamiliar, Garry's Mod is a physics game that runs on the Source engine but allows you to draw on all of the assets of games like Half Life 2 and CounterStrike to build your own games, scenes, and environments.
Garry's update will check to see if the game is a pirated version, and if it is, an error will appear that says the game is "Unable to shade polygon normals," which is language arcane enough to make people flock to the forums and the web to investigate and research the problem. What those same users are actually doing, inadvertently, is turning themselves in and admitting that they have a pirated copy of the game. Once they're revealed and post the error message and its associated log file (which includes their Steam ID) to the Web, they get a permanent ban.
Garry first posted the news to Twitter, asking the question "Anyone unable to shade polygon normals?" He then followed up with posts to his blog and to Twitter, and noted that he's having fun watching the errors roll in and the users subsequently getting banned. He's been vocal for a long time now that he's unhappy with the sheer number of people pirating his game, and this latest move was designed to extract a little revenge from the people playing for free.
The error – and Garry's tactics in identifying pirates – have netted him a ton of criticism, both on his blog and at Twitter, with people triumphantly claiming they've found a way to "crack" his "DRM." He's defended himself, pointing out that his goal isn't to stop piracy, but to have a little fun at their expense. He noted on Twitter: "you can't stop pirates.. but you can troll them."
Even now, searching Google for the error message yields more people reporting the issue and begging for help than articles explaining what's really going on, and Garry noted on Twitter that he's seen one person run the game and report the error 137 times.

Garware College of Commerce was established in 1967 as an independent commerce college on the campus of the then 'M.E.S. Arts and Science College' which started in 1945. Initially commerce classes were started in Arts College. The College was renamed as "M.E.S. Garware College of Commerce" in 1971. It was the second largest and independent commerce college imparting higher education in Commerce in Pune.
Being centrally located, it proved to be very convenient for students in city. At present the College provides education up to Ph.D. level. The strength of students is about 3000. Various optional and special subjects in Commerce and Administration curricula are taught in the college, including vocational course in taxation. The College has a team of devoted and qualified staff.
Several alumni of the College occupy high positions in various fields like business and industry, banking, chartered and cost accounting, self-employment, education, social service, music, drama, sports etc. The College has adequate infrastructure that includes excellent buildings & library, well equipped computer laboratories, reading halls, hostel, gymnasium, gymkhana, audio-visual equipments and teaching aids. The College receives regular grants for books, projects, seminars and faculty development programmes from the University Grants Commission. The College organizes variety of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities for the benefit of students.
Considering the increasing need for management and computer education, the College promoted an institute named as 'Institute of Management and Career Courses' (IMCC) in 1983. Today it is an independent institute affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University. (Formerly known as University of Pune).
Success of IMCC enabled us to enter into yet another endeavor. As a part of it, the College has started Bachelor in Business Administration (B.B.A.), Bachelor in Business Administration – International Business(B.B.A.-I.B.) [earlier called as BBM-IB]; Bachelor in Business Administration – Computer Application (B.B.A.-C.A.) [earlier called as B.C.A.] courses.
It has also established the research centre (Ph.D.-Commerce), namely, Department of Research, Innovations and Consultancy (DRIC).
The College is permanently affiliated to the Savitribai Phule Pune University and has a rich tradition of meritorious students in academics and social fields. In the re-accreditation process, our College bagged the prestigious 'A' grade from the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), scoring the appreciable grade points 3.45 out of 4. It is also the recipient of the Best College Award of Savitribai Phule Pune University.
In the era of globalization of education, it is necessary to give global exposure to students. Considering the need of an hour, the College has taken initiative to provide overseas educational opportunities to the students in collaboration with Douglas College, Vancouver, Canada. Moreover, there is a presence of more than 65 international students from 11 countries on the College campus.

Williams, 47, was the third overall pick in the 1986 amateur draft, and later played third base for the Giants, Indians, and Diamondbacks. Over his seventeen seasons, Williams hit .268/.317/.489 with 378 HR and 1218 RBI. He then later coached first base and third base for the Diamondbacks, as he was hired in 2009 to coach in the 2010 season. His coaching tenure has continued since the 2010 season, as now he will receive his first managing job, for the Washington Nationals.
Williams will be heading to a team with a ton of talent, but is sometimes fairly inconsistent. It's possible that Williams could turn this team into a serious contender, or he could need a year of "rebuilding" and reshaping of the work ethic and playing style. Either way, I believe that the Nationals will be going to a person in Williams that could really do a great job as manager for their team. Overall, I really like the way the Nationals are headed, for now.

SAHUI MALDONADO, Alejandro. Fundamental Rights, Generalizable Interests, and Human Needs. Andamios [online]. 2008, vol.4, n.8, pp.169-184. ISSN 1870-0063.
The objective is to contribute to the discussion of Cristina Lafont's notion of political legitimacy, emphasizing its realism-not constructivism-as understood in Jürgen Habermas' discursive ethics. The author argues that legitimacy is usually associated with decision-making procedures but is not identical to mere agreement per se. Legitimacy incorporates the idea of the general interest as a practical presupposition. These interests are defined as fundamental rights in the procedure. The notion of justice in this sense is a contextual one, but capable of transcending historical agreements and susceptible to revision in terms of truth.
Palabras llave : Legitimacy; justice; fundamental rights; interests; discourse ethics.

The 3000-square-foot historic landmark was once a soldier's hospital, but now houses Agnès' men's, women's, shoes and accessories collections amidst the antique architectural details, clean white walls, and mid-century furniture. And while the clothes are the focus, it would be worthwhile to pay a visit just to peruse the art: a 500-square-foot gallery wall curated by Agnès will feature international artists from her Paris gallery, Galerie du Jour; her art periodical Point d'Ironie will be available alongside a selection of art books; her collection of original film noir posters will decorate the space; and underground art films will occasionally be screened in-store.
And if that weren't enough, the art and fashion worlds collide with a series of tees for her Artist T-Shirt line, including designs from notables including Ryan McGinness, Rostarr, Harmony Korine, and Bast, many on sale exclusively in-store.

Wagering Requirements
Over the past few decades, Ladbrokes has become a household name, popular among thrill seekers, sports betting enthusiasts and casino players. It comprises of a well-defined casino game collection, a sportsbook and a poker platform. However, in order to fully tap into Ladbrokes potential, you need to make a deposit, so you can eventually win real money.
Wagering Requirements
Those of you who haven't heard of Ladbrokes should know it focuses on a handful of regions, such as the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Sweden, Belgium, Australia and Spain. Taking these into consideration, the list below is adequate, able to provide players with the means to safely, and conveniently deposit at Ladbrokes Casino.
In spite of the narrow player base, Ladbrokes accepts deposits and is willing to pay out winnings in GBP, EUR, SEK, DKK, USD, AUD, NZD, CAD, NOK, CHF, SGD, HKD, JPY and PLN. Note, many of the said currencies are available to players using the services of given payment providers. Moreover, many of the below listed deposit and withdrawal options are present in specific markets only.
Now, as you know deposits are instant, and the problems usually occur when the time for withdrawing comes. Being the giant Ladbrokes is, it can easily handle high volume of payouts, without having the payout times affected by any means. This is one of the advantages of playing in a well-established online casino.
As long as everything is in order, and your play is in line with the terms of Ladbrokes, you should get your withdrawals processed sooner than later. To illustrate, PayPal, Skrill and Neteller withdrawals take between 6 and 24 hours. Credit and debit cards take longer, between 3 and 5 days due to mandatory procedures undertaken by the respective banks, both yours and the banks Ladbrokes uses to process its payments. Players from the UK and Ireland can get their payments via Cheques. The Cheque is sent within 2 days of the player's request. In addition, there's no fee charge! Players out of the UK can withdraw using the Cheque option for free once per month. Nevertheless, not all withdrawals are free. For what it's worth, Ladbrokes Casino has gone the distance to provide all relevant and necessary information regarding the payment options and the terms associated with them.
We did praised Ladbrokes of being an efficient casino when it comes to payouts. Another fact that backs this statement is that there's no clearly defined withdrawal limit. However, most payment providers come with their own daily withdrawal limits. As far as Ladbrokes is concerned, they can deliver!

For the many confused as to the meaning of that number enclosed in triangular arrows on the bottom of your coffee cup, water bottle, sandwich bag or other plastic container, we have prepared this easy guide. Special thanks to National Geographic's, Green Guide, where much of the source information originated.
POLYETHYLENE TEREPHTHALATE (PET or PETE) – (Soft drink bottles, water bottles, beer bottles, mouthwash bottles, peanut butter containers, salad dressing containers, juice bottles, vegetable oil bottles)
Bottles made with PET are considered safe for single use. Repeat using is not recommended as the plastic is porous and it has been known to permanently absorb flavors and bacteria. Note! There are a limited number of reusable containers available that are made from this material, though for the reasons listed above, it is recommended that you avoid using them.
Bottles made with PET or PETE are widely accepted by municipal recyclers.
HIGH DENSITY POLYETHYLENE (HDPE) – (Milk containers, juice bottles, water bottles, bleach, detergent, and shampoo bottles, trash bags, grocery and retail carrying bags, motor oil bottles, butter and margarine tubs, household cleaner bottles, yogurt containers, and cereal box liners)
Considered one of the safer plastics. HDPE transmits no known chemicals into your food.
Most municipal recycling programs accept packaging made with HDPE. Recycled HDPE is used to make Drainage pipe, liquid laundry detergent bottles, oil bottles, pens, benches, doghouses, recycling containers, floor tile, picnic tables, fencing, lumber, and mailbox posts.
POLYVINYL CHLORIDE (V or PVC) – (Window cleaner bottles, cooking oil bottles, detergent bottles, shampoo bottles, clear food packaging, wire and cable jacketing, medical tubing, with additional significant usage in household products and building materials, particularly siding, piping, and windows)
PVC is a plastic to avoid as it has been known to leech hormone disrupting phthalate plasticizers and lead into your food. Additionally, vinyl chloride, a primary building block, is a known human carcinogen.
PVC products are not recyclable and should not be incinerated because heat releases dioxin, another potent carcinogen and hormone disruptor.
LOW DENSITY POLYETHYLENE (LDPE) – (Squeezable bottles, breadbags, frozen food bags, tote bags, clothing, furniture, dry cleaning bags, and carpet)
LDPE is believed to be among the safer plastics, as does not transmit any known chemicals into your food.
Generally recyclable: Accepted at Whole Foods Market, Wal-Mart and at plastic bag recycling centers. Recycled LDPE is used to make Film and sheet, floor tile, garbage can liners, shipping envelopes, furniture, compost bins, paneling, trash cans, lumber, landscaping ties.
POLYPROPYLENE (PP) – (Yogurt containers, syrup bottles, ketchup bottles, caps, straws, medicine bottles & diapers)
Also considered one of the safer plastics as it, too, does not transmit any known chemicals into your food.
Generally recyclable: Check with your local recycling program. Recycled PP is used to make signal lights, battery cables, brooms, brushes, auto battery cases, ice scrapers, landscape borders, bicycle racks, rakes, bins, pallets, and trays.
POLYSTYRENE (PS) – Available in two forms: EXTRUDED POLYSTYRENE PS (STYROFOAM) – (take-out containers, clamshell take-out containers and coffee cups) and NON-EXTRUDED PS – (clear disposable takeout containers, disposable plastic cutlery and cups) –
Both forms of this plastic can leach styrene – a possible human carcinogen – into food. Scientists also believe that PS may also disrupt hormones or affect reproduction.
Generally recyclable: Check with your local recycling program. Recycled PS is used to make thermal insulation, light switch plates, egg cartons, vents, rulers, foam packing, carry-out containers.
POLYCARBONATE (PC) – (baby bottles, 5-gallon water bottles, water-cooler bottles and the epoxy linings of tin food cans)
Whether or not packaging made from PC is safe is questionable at this time. Composed of a hormone-disrupting chemical called bisphenol A, which has been linked to a wide variety of problems such as cancer and obesity.
Not Recyclable:
POLYLACTIDE (PLA) – (Baby bottles, some reusable water bottles, stain-resistant food-storage containers, medical storage containers)
Made from renewable resources such as corn, potatoes and sugar cane and anything else with a high starch content.
Not Recyclable: though they can be composted. Most decompose in about twelve days unlike conventional plastic, which can take up to 100 years.

An apple rose tart that will make your loved one drop their chin! It's not only a piece of art but also absolutely delicious. A crunchy nut crust with sweet apples and maple custard, what else can you want in life?
This apple rose tart is one of my most popular desserts on the blog and I have decided to update the photos to make them look more like, well now. In addition, I shot an instructional video for it so you can see with you own eyes that this is totally doable. I do not necessarily consider myself a very crafty person which is why I am double proud of having been able to make this look so beautiful. Oh and if I was able to do it, YOU will definitely be able to do it, too. It really isn't as hard as it looks. It just takes a bit of time and patience. That's it.
Making this for the love of your life will be fun and there is no better way to show love than to dedicate time to someone. I believe that that is the essence of love. And if the love of your life loves desserts or eating in general….you can probably expect a pretty awesome reward *lol*
Best crust for an apple rose tart
You can make this tart with any crust you like of course, however, in my opinion there is nothing that can beat the perfection of the apple-walnut combo. This crust contains a cup of walnuts and it tastes hea-ven-ly! I added a bit of almond flour, too to make sure it doesn't taste bitter. The crust is entirely made of nuts though, no wheat flour and thus is gluten-free. Coconut oil and an egg hold the curst together and a couple tablespoons maple syrup make it sweet.
The best part? I takes about 3 minutes to transform the ingredients into a moldable dough. You start by pulsing the walnuts in a food processor until flour-like consistency. Add the rest of the crust ingredients, process until a ball forms and voilá, your nut crust is ready.
How to prevent apples from browning?
Exposure to air/oxygen makes apples brown. In order to prevent the apple slices from browning, place them in lemon water. The water will keep air away and the lemon's acidity helps keep them from browning even once you removed the slices from the water. Add about 2 liters (half a gallon) of water to a bowl. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon into the water and mix well. Place your mandoline on the edges of the bowl and start slicing. The apples slices fall right into the lemon water and thus never turn brown.
How to form apple roses?
An apple rose tart wouldn't be an apple rose tart if it had no apple roses, right? Form at least one apple rose. The first time I made the tart I formed one rose and then arranged the rest of the apple slices around it. The second time I made it I figured the tart would look even prettier with several apple roses.
Here is the trick: you will need very moldable apple slices. Submerge a couple of apple slices in boiling hot water for a couple of seconds only. Remove immediately with tongs so they don't overcook. Wait for the slices to cool down a little so you don't burn your hands. You should be able to form any shape of your liking without them braking. Do not submerge all of the apple slices in boiling water because they will become all mushy and won't stand nicely. Only submerge the ones for the center of the rose.
Start by rolling up one slice very tightly (center of the rose) and then add in more slices around it in a circular motion. Place the small rose it in your tart pan. Hold the center with one hand and form the outer layers with the other. The slices are wet and therefor nice and sticky so the rose shouldn't fall apart too easily.
Have a dish cloth handy in order to tap the apple slices dry a little bit and avoid the crust from soaking in lemon water.
Once the Rose is formed you may want to continue with the slices that are soaking in the lemon water which are crisper than the ones that were in boiling water and therefor stand straighter. Continue filling the pan until the apple rose tart is all finished.
This is how my first apple rose tart looked. It's really pretty but I like my second version better with the 3 roses in the tart. You can also make two roses maybe. However you like it best. Be creative :)
The best maple custard for an apple rose tart
It takes literally 1 minute to make the custard because you don't have to cook it. Just add all ingredients in a bowl (preferably with a spout for easy pouring) and whisk. Egg, egg yolks, evaporated milk (homemade if you can), and maple syrup. That's it. Easy peasy!
Pour the custard into the empty spaces in between the apple slices making sure to fill them all out. Do not pour too much at a time as this may make the apple slices fall and flatten the whole pie. Once baked the liquid custard will solidify and once it completely cools off in the fridge it will have the most perfect creamy consistency and look like THIS Valentine's Apple Rose Tart:
So now you know how to make an apple rose tart! I hope you will enjoy making this as much as I did and I also hope the person you are making this for is willing to share at least a little bit with you because it really, truly tastes heavenly!
Happy Valentine's Day my beloved reader. I love you to the belly and back! And remember to take a picture of your tart and tag me on Facebook or Instagram so I can see :)
P.S. if you believe this is too hard to accomplish … DON'T believe that!!!
P.S. 2 If you still believe this is too difficult of a tart to make, you may want to check out this Simple Pear Tart that takes only 20 minutes to prepare and really can't be messed up at all ;)

Valentine's Apple Rose Tart
An apple rose tart that will make your loved one drop their chin! It's not only a piece of art but also absolutely delicious. A crunchy nut crust with sweet apples and maple custard, what else can you want in life?
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 egg
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 cup evaporated milk
- 1 egg
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 3 red apples
- 1/2 lemon
- maple flakes (optional)
- Add walnuts to food processor and pulse until flour like consistency.
- Add almond flour, 1 egg, coconut oil and 2 Tbsp maple syrup into food processor and process until dough starts forming.
- Place dough in the middle of your baking pan and spread out with your fingers until the whole pan bottom and sides are evenly covered. Make sure the sides are thick enough to not break when removed from pan. If the dough becomes too sticky either use parchment paper in between fingers and dough or put dough in the freezer for 10 minutes and then start spreading.
- Fill a big bowl with lukewarm water and squeeze juice of half a lemon into the water.
- Place tart pan with crust in the fridge while slicing apples.
- Preheat oven to 350 F (180 °C).
- Wash, core and quarter one apple at a time and finely slice it letting the slices fall into a large bowl with lemon water until all apples are sliced. Use a mandolin slicer, a knife will NOT make the trick unless you are a ninja.
- Submerge a hand full apple slices 10 seconds in boiling water, remove and then form rose(s) with the slices. Then continue filling pan with apple slices around the rose(s) until full (as described and shown in pictures above).
- In a small bowl whisk together evaporated milk, 1 egg, egg yolks, and 1/4 cup maple syrup and slowly and carefully pour custard into wholes between apple slices.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes at 350 F (180 °C) until crust and apple tops start browning.
- Let cool down to room temperature and then refrigerate for at least 1 hour for custard to solidify to required consistency.
- Sprinkle Maple Flakes on top of everything and decorate with flours (optional).

Reiki Practitioner Training in Maidstone, Kent.
Next Level 1 Reiki Training date – email firstname.lastname@example.com
Becoming Empowered to Reiki
- Have you ever wondered how some people remain so calm, even in a crisis?
- Do you need help with learning how to relax and de-stress?
- Is something missing in your life and you want to get more spiritual enlightenment?
If yes, then becoming empowered to Reiki may well be a good thing for you. I offer a unique combination of skills, and it is my aim for you to understand how powerful it is to be empowered to Reiki. You are opening up to becoming much more self aware and linking into your energy system to help heal yourself. You may gain the empowerment for your own benefit or to give healing to others. The choice is yours. As a business owner by going up the levels of Reiki, you will becoming a 'wise person' as Reiki is all about wisdom and truth and you will be learning your lessons in life. By having the empowerments, means that you will be able to give the best to your clients and will enable you to ensure that you maintain the best health and energy to get the most out of life. Reiki enables you to meditate and gain inner wisdom to have the best life possible.
What is Reiki?
"Reiki" (ray-key) is Japanese for 'universal life energy', a term used to describe a system of natural healing. This healing tradition was founded by Dr Mikao Usui in the early 20th century and evolved as a result of his research, experience and dedication.
We live in a world of energy that nourishes and maintains all living things. When this energy flows uninterrupted there is balance and harmony within and around us and we experience a sense of well being. There are many variations of Reiki, but in essence Reiki works at bringing us into balance and is believed therefore to reinforce the body's natural ability to heal itself at all levels, whether physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. It is a tradition that is open to any belief system.
Reiki is a healing process that anyone can benefit from in the normal course of their life. Research using animals and even bacteria suggests it has the ability to reverse stress-induced conditions. It should not, however, be regarded as a cure for conditions. As a natural form of healing Reiki can support and enhance other forms of treatment.
What does the training involve?
Level 1 – Empowerment weekend
Having had a Reiki school for many years now, I have observed my student's progress with interest. Often they have very low self worth and struggle to make money to use their Reiki skills on others as they need more money mindset support and to understand the power of their minds. For this reason, Reiki level 1 is now a two day course, and I am delivering it differently with a focus around self worth on the first day and money mindset – The previous Are you worth it? workshop. We will explore the benefits of valuing yourself and others and we will look at how to understand our minds more to get the best from ourselves as well as ehaving a taster of meditation and learning how to use Emotional Freedom Technique tapping technique. On day two, we will carry out the Reiki 1 training as before.
This is a group training session, although it may be delivered on a 1-1 basis if necessary. Over the course of two days training, you will learn what Reiki is, the history of Reiki, the main benefits of being empowered to Reiki, the Reiki Healing Precepts, and you will receive four Healing Empowerments. You will also learn how to use Reiki in Daily Life treating yourself and others as well as meditating using Reiki.
You will get to discuss your current experiences of Reiki, what your hopes and fears are and I will share my experience of using Reiki within a thriving practice. Alongside the Reiki training, I will offer you the option to work with me on a 1-1 basis, to work on confidence and self esteem issues to give you the wisdom and experience needed to get the most from your Reiki empowerment. I have found that without this additional support and guidance, those empowered to Reiki spend a lot longer than is necessary not putting into place their Reiki skills and building an effective business.
This focused attention from me will allow you to grow in confidence in using Reiki and will enable you to ask any questions you have personally to get the most from the training. From experience, by spending time with my clients/ practitioners in this way, my students are able to progress quicker and understand Reiki in a more in depth way. I am passionate about helping my students in this way as I struggled to explain what Reiki was for years and I want my students to have a happier experience. You will also gain a unique insight into how to improve your health for the future and will have a major shift in confidence and self esteem. This course is suitable for anyone, including business owners who have no aspiration to become a Reiki Practitioner Healer and who just want the Reiki empowerments for their own spiritual and personal development.
The investment is £400 for a 2 day training course. There are Reiki Shares after the training to enable you to gain confidence in using your Reiki skills and to increase your self awareness. You will also receive a Reiki empowerment again at each Reiki share. They cost £20 for a 2 hour group session. If you are interested in doing your Level 1 training, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Level 2 – Practitioner Weekend plus webinars and assessments
This is a group training session with those students who have already completed Level 1. Most students will have attended the Reiki Share sessions although this is not essential. Students will receive certificates of attendance and when 5 hours of supervised treatments has been achieved, the qualification will be awarded and in line with the Reiki Council Standards. There needs to be nine months between Level 1 and 2, so if necessary individuals can attend the training, however they will have to wait longer before they can receive the Level 2 qualification which leads to becoming a practitioner.
The training covers the main benefits of Reiki Level 2, the Healing Precepts, The Reiki Symbols including distant healing, how to increase your flow of energy, working with your intuition, focusing Reiki like a laser beam, sending Reiki with your eyes and breath and space clearing and room preparation. There will be plenty of time to practise on each other and to share experiences. The investment is £600 per person including manual, training and support. Additional information about running a practice and attracting clients will be covered too.
In addition to the Reiki 1 and 2 training, individual coaching is on offer for you to help you to gain in confidence and success. This is individually tailored to your specific needs and issues related to Health, Wealth and Happiness. Currently Level 1 and 2 qualifications are on offer with progression on to Master Level after 3 years of being a practitioner. All training is in line with the National Occupational Standards set by the Reiki Council.
NB: If you have no aspirations to be a Reiki Practitioner, you can be attuned to Reiki – Level 1 and 2 so that you can access the benefits of being attuned. This can be especially useful if you are suffering from a long term health issue such as depression, anxiety, ME, MS, Chronic Pain, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Cancer or if you have unexplained health issues which traditional medicine is finding it difficult to diagnose.
Students do not have to become practitioners after the training, however to gain the most knowledge, it is recommended that the full course is completed in case you change your mind in the future!
Level 1 training can be booked at any time. Get in touch if you would like to do Level 2 with me, by emailing email@example.com

How can you get a job as an Allied Health Professional in UAE?
Getting a physiotherapy job in Dubai can almost be like a catch 22 situation... " you need a work visa to work, but you need an employer to sponsor you to get a work visa...but you need to get your license to work as a physiotherapist... but you can't apply for a license till you pass the exams...but you don't even qualify to take the exams if you don't have a job offer...
So what can you do?
Well I have three suggestions, not necessarily recommendations, but these should help:
1. Send your CV to a recruitment agency in Dubai.
2. Search for jobs online by yourself. Here are some websites where you can search for physiotherapy jobs in Dubai or UAE generally:
3. You can go to Dubai on a visit or tourist visa and search for jobs on ground. Buy their newspapers and pick up classifieds from supermarkets. Visit hospitals, health centers or gyms...
However, if you get hired by a Dubai employer you will need to leave the UAE and wait for your Employment Visa to be issued, so you are not banned from the country.
An employer must apply for an employment visa on your behalf.

No one can have missed by now that we are living through the centenary years of the Great War, 1914-1918. The production of the play Not About Heroes is timely, of course, but I love that it has also spent the past months touring so many places closely associated with Wilfred Owen: Edinburgh, where it was staged at Craiglockhart itself; Ripon; Scarborough; Ors in France; Shrewsbury… It is now in the last weeks of its run, at Trafalgar Studios in London, on Whitehall just off Trafalgar Square. That's what I call doing the thing properly.
The play is about two officers and war poets – Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon – their poetry and their all-too-brief friendship. Much of the dialogue is directly influenced by their letters and poems, with their conversations skilfully reimagined. Owen was already writing poetry when he first met Sassoon, who was an established, published poet – but the short while they spent together at Craiglockhart was in effect an intense 'master class'. With Sassoon there as hero, critic and mentor, Owen's talents surged into true accomplishment.
The play very much focuses on this aspect of their relationship, with their poetry and the War and their friendship comingled. The homosexual aspects of both characters are underwritten almost to the point of non-existence. If you don't know who Robbie Ross was, then you would assume that Sassoon introducing Owen to him was only about the possibility of Owen's poetry being published. Not that I think anything explicit happened between Sassoon and Owen, but it would be good to have a play that allows them to at least talk about the matter.
Not About Heroes was written by Stephen MacDonald, and premiered in 1982 at the Edinburgh Festival. It features only the two characters, who are both onstage throughout. This production is blessed by the cast of Simon Jenkins as Owen and Alasdair Craig as Sassoon. There is certainly a physical resemblance between the actors and the poets, which all added to the verisimilitude.
The production was very moving indeed, with moments of real humour and of real pathos. The facts of injuries and death are not avoided, but are handled tactfully. I wept, a little. Even the two actors seemed moved during the curtain calls, though they have been in these roles since early September. They did a superb job at handling a variety of times and places and above all emotions – and all within the intimacy of a tiny studio-theatre.
I at last dealt with some emotional baggage of my own. I've loved Wilfred Owen for a long while (and wrote about him here). But I had always felt rather resentful of Sassoon. It seems clear that Owen was in love with him, but Sassoon always seemed either oblivious or patronising in return. And I never liked him enough to feel that he was good enough for our Wilfred!
But tonight on the way into London on the train I decided to watch the play with the notion that maybe Sassoon had been exactly what Owen needed at that time in his life. And damned if MacDonald, Craig and Jenkins didn't convince me that was so. Owen needed someone who'd be hard on him and push him to climb up to that summit of achievement. Like him or not, Sassoon was the man for the job. In fact, all this reminded me of a quote from one of Olivia Manning's Fortunes of War novels:
I need someone strong, fierce, intolerant and noble.
I used to want Sassoon to at least genuinely regret what he'd apparently overlooked at the time. Now I can finally be generous enough to hope he realised what a terrific friend and mentor he'd been.
I will end with Owen's words rather than mine. The play's title is taken from the preface Owen wrote for his first volume of poetry – a book he was never to see published. Some or perhaps all of this will be familiar to you already, but it bears repeating.
This book is not about heroes. English poetry is not yet fit to speak of them. Nor is it about deeds, or lands, nor anything about glory, honour, might, majesty, dominion, or power, except War. Above all I am not concerned with Poetry. My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity. Yet these elegies are to this generation in no sense consolatory. They may be to the next. All a poet can do today is warn. That is why the true Poets must be truthful.
If you want more:
- Visit the Not About Heroes website, which includes the Whispers of War poetry competition.
- Follow the Not About Heroes Twitter account.
- The play is on at the Trafalgar Studios until 6 December.
- And the play, of course, has a Wikipedia page.

More power and sharper handling in new GT3
- Author: Mike Stock
- Published: 30/01/2009
- Views: 1852
Porsche's second generation 911 GT3 Model 997, which debuts at the Geneva motor show in March, gets a bigger, more powerful, engine and double its predecessor's aerodynamic downforce
The six-cylinder boxer motor increases to 3.8-litres (from 3.6) and is 15kW more powerful, at 320kW. Porsche has improved cylinder head breathing by adding VarioCam to the exhaust camshafts. The engine also develops better torque at medium revs.
The 0-100km/h time improves, to 4.1 seconds, and the GT3 will hit 160km/h in 8.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 310km/h.
Porsche has retuned the Porsche Stability Management (PSM) system for greater sportiness. The driver can now deactivate both Stability Control (SC) and Traction Control (TC) in separate steps.
Neither is reactivated automatically, even during extremely hard driving; they come back on only when the driver presses a button.
Porsche says aerodynamic improvements result in front and rear downforce that is more double that generated by the previous 997 GT3.
Visual changes include Bi-Xenon headlights, LED rear light clusters, and modified air intakes and outlets.
The Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) system has allowed even stiffer springs and anti-roll bars for more precise handling in the selectable sports mode. In normal mode, the PASM provides a comfortable ride for everyday use.
The GT3 rides on new, lighter wheels in a racing-inspired design – with a centre locking nut – fitted with ultra-high performance (UHP) tyres. A tyre pressure monitoring system is standard.
The brakes have larger discs and an aluminium cover to reduce unsprung weight. Better brake ventilation gives consistent stopping power over long periods. Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) made specifically for the GT3 are an added-cost option.
For racing the new 911 GT3 can be fitted with Porsche Active Drivetrain Mount (PADM) engine mountings. They recognise a particularly sporting, race-like style of driving, and make the normally elastic engine mounts harder and particularly resistant to flexing.
An optional lift system for the front axle can increase ground clearance of the car, at the touch of a button, for driving on bumpy surfaces or steep gradients.

Back when my son was old enough to get his license he began to watch me drive. Frankly, it made me think about how I was driving. I wasn't sure I wanted him to copy everything he saw me do. I mean, I'd been driving for 25 years or so, and maybe that was the problem. I think I'd become - I don't know - a little overconfident with that ton of steel that I propel down the highway, maybe even a little careless sometimes. I suspect overconfidence is the invisible cause of many crashes...many crashes.
Now our word for today from the Word of God comes from 1 Corinthians chapter 10. I'm going to begin reading at verse 11. It's speaking of the children of Israel in the wilderness; the heritage that they had but also the awful mistakes and sins that they committed. It says, "These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come." And that was speaking of Christ. Then it goes on to say, "So if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall."
Now, who's this addressed to? Well, this is about spiritual veterans. The people of whom Paul was speaking were Bible people; they were eyewitnesses to miracles, they were daily led by God with the pillar of cloud and the pillar of fire. But the passage that precedes this warning tells us that they somehow slipped into sexual sin, into bitterness toward God, into putting other allegiances ahead of God. Now how do folks like you and me suddenly, or is it suddenly...become spiritual casualties?
Well, verse 12 says, "If you think you're standing firm, be careful that you don't fall." It implies that the killer might just be overconfidence. Maybe we've been driving this Christian vehicle for a while. We know all the dangers, we know all the tricks, we know all the formulas, we know all the shortcuts. But overconfident Christians crash.
Two reasons: one, because we stop being careful. We've done it a long time, so we tend to walk along the edge of the cliff of temptation saying, "Hey, I've been at this a long time. No problem." We play with sin instead of running from it. We push our limits. We let garbage into our mind. Like David on that day off, we end up committing the worse sin of our life because we're careless. We underestimate the power of sin, and we overestimate the power of us.
The second reason I think that overconfidence is a spiritual killer is it makes us stop being dependent. In the early days of following Christ, remember, you used to cling like cloth to Jesus saying, "Lord, I can't even make it through the day without You." But hey, you've been doing it for a long time now, huh? Maybe now you're depending on your own discipline, dedication, your track record. Oh, the Devil loves that, because you're easily beaten now.
The only way to stay pure is to daily, consciously wrap yourself in Jesus' righteousness and strength. The Bible says, "If you think you're standing..." Maybe you're there; you think you're doing okay. But you're hurtling down the highway with one finger on the wheel, eyes everywhere but on the road.
You could be a spiritual accident looking for a place to happen. There's a very high price for overconfidence.

Phuket has been quietly developing over the last fifteen years into a world-class resort destination. Nowhere else in Asia can match the infrastructure that Phuket now has to offer. The roads are well maintained and fast flowing, the new airport is amazing, there are several international schools, five championship golf courses, four yacht marinas, a chic social scene with trendy beach clubs and restaurants and western shopping malls delivering goods and services you are used to at home. It is no wonder that so many successful people have decided to make Phuket their holiday or retirement home. Exotiq Property have been on the island since 2004 and with two offices providing complete coverage of the market we are well placed to find the best investment property. It's not only us saying this, the industry said it as well, that's why we won the 'Best residential agent Phuket' at the Thailand Property Awards.

A leaked memo shows that Saudi authorities were fully aware that the mass execution of 47 people, including prominent Shia cleric Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr, would cause global uproar.
According to the letter which was penned by the director of Saudi security services before the killings, forces in the kingdom were ordered to cancel holidays from December 31 onwards and to exercise "maximum precaution" until further notice, The Independent reported on Monday.
The document, marked very urgent, was sent to unit directors in regions where the executions were carried out on Saturday, and passed by Saudi activists to human rights group Reprieve, which in turn leaked it to media sources.
"This letter shows the level of preparation the Saudi authorities went to ahead of Saturday, having predicted the outrage that would follow their politically-motivated executions of protesters," said Maya Foa, the head of Reprieve's death penalty team.
"If the Saudi government really wants to prove itself on the international stage, it must stop torturing and executing protesters, and commit to fair, transparent trials," she added.
The executions, especially that of the Shia cleric, has drawn condemnation from governments and human rights groups from all over the world. Multiple protests have been held in Nimr's home town in Qatif in Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province and other countries including Iran, Bahrain, Pakistan and India.
Sheikh Nimr, a critic of the Riyadh regime, was shot by Saudi police and arrested in 2012 in Qatif, which was the scene of peaceful anti-regime demonstrations at the time.
He was charged with instigating unrest and undermining the kingdom's security. He had rejected the charges as baseless.

Hey everyone! I have been incredibly MIA as of late and too busy to post on the FoldIT Creations blog. Between juggling my 2 day jobs, making things and doing shows its been a bit of a time management challenge (oh and I was in Mexico too!). I have just finished my art teaching job for the summer and soon will finish at the the cafe I work at and move back to Kawarthas region of Ontario where I will teach English and work as a live-in camp counsellor/ teacher for the summer. I can't wait. Campfires, boating on the lake, archery and all that fun summer stuff I did as a kid. The Etsy shop will be closed as of the 22nd of June and will open up again in late August for business so if there is anything you have been eyeing for summer get your order in before the 22nd and you should be fine.
This past weekend was filled with Etsy related fun. On Friday I attended the really fun Etsy Craft Party here in Toronto at Sew Be It Studio (thanks for the gracious hosting). We came, we drank, we crafted! With an emphasis on the drinking and crafting! Nothing like red wine and glitter (I've been dusting if off me for days). It was a lot of fun and I met a lot of new people from the Etsy community which is always nice when you have been shut up for weeks making things. This weekend was also the Annual Toronto Etsy Street Team Springtime Marketplace. I did this one last year and it is always a well planned event with lots of other Toronto-based Etsians showcasing their goods offline. Thanks for all the hard work to those who organized! 🙂
Finally, on Sunday we were at the Annex Flea right here in my Toronto neighbourhood. Throughout the summer it will be taking place behind Honest Ed's in the parking parking lot rain or shine… this week it rained! However, only those awesome hardcore people came out and that made our day! FoldIT Creations shared a tent with the new to the handmade-scene Jinny Wong of Fuzzy Belly Creations. It was a pleasure to share a tent with these awesome people and their cute little baby boy who was so easy going. We hope to see you again <3.
And enough typing…. here are some photos! 🙂 XO

If your home or business is located in a flood plain, you probably have flood insurance backed by the National Flood Insurance Program. These policies offer important coverage during a flood, but you may not know that they have a coverage limit of $250,000 for homes and $500,000 for businesses. If your house or business is worth more than these limits, you may want to further protect your property with excess flood insurance. These policies can extend the amount of coverage to several million dollars or more, depending on the policy you purchase.
Supplemental flood insurance can also offer you benefits that NFIP policies cannot. If your home is flooded, excess flood insurance may cover temporary housing costs while your home is being repaired. It may also provide greater coverage for items located in your basement that are damaged by flooding. If your business is affected by flooding, an excess flood insurance policy may also offer you business interruption coverage.
When purchasing flood insurance through the NFIP, you can also purchase an additional $100,000 policy to cover the cost of the contents of your home. This policy will only cover the depreciated value of your belongings. There are also caps on the amount that will be paid for damage to artwork, jewelry and other valuables. On the other hand, supplemental flood insurance can insure your treasured possessions up to their replacement value and beyond the $100,000 limit. For businesses, NFIP coverage extends to $500,000. However, depending on your business, you may find that this coverage will not replace the expensive equipment, electronics and other assets of your company.
Keep in mind that you're required to purchase NFIP flood insurance before buying a supplemental policy. If you have a mortgage, your lender may also have specific requirements about the type of coverage you must carry. Also, excess flood insurance may limit what type of personal property it will cover, so you should discuss the coverage you'll need with an insurance agent. To cover possessions that are excluded by your flood insurance policy, an agent can often offer you a valuable-articles policy. To insure a quick payout in case of a claim, it may be advantageous to have all of your policies with one insurer.
In most cases, your flood insurance policy will have a 30-day window before it goes into effect. For this reason, talk with an insurance agent now, since hurricane season has already begun. If you'd like to find out how affordable excess Fort Lauderdale flood insurance can be for your home or business, call Pro Player Insurance Group at 855-367-7744 for a free quote and more information.

Shallow rivers of tears
Drying out the sorrows of the heart
Muteness is the only way to speak
Shattering glass the sound of
The life wanting to be lived.
Fragmented years that have
Loops that traps
Struggling for air
Covered in the silence of all the
Serenity that is no more.
The path shines luring
The body into the unknown
Spirit hovering away
Out of sight and into the darkness
The light blinks.
Heart makes no sense
Wanting a life of love and memories
It wanted to come back to
The beautiful small of making love
To the face hovering above.
Never has the body been so
Scared and stiff to relax
And touch the beautiful faces
In perplex wonder at who I am
Now that I am dead.

Pavilion of Hungary
The Pavilion of Hungary was located on the left bank of the river Po, next to the Main entrance on Corso Vittorio Emanuele II
It was designed by Hungarian architects Emil Töry, Maurice Pogány, and Dénes Györgyi. An eclectic building, combining Art Nouveau elements with the features of National Romanticism, the Pavilion of Hungary covered 6000 square meters, and was considered "the pearl of the exposition."
Hungary is so modern in aesthetic expression and so jealous of its national traditions. The pavilion is the most striking in the International exhibition: austere in its exterior, beautiful and bizarre inside, this building of noble proportions and harmonious coloring ... is reminiscent of India and Persia ... and inspired by antique Hungarian motifs. (Melani, 289)

HighlightsLima | Pisco | Ballestas Islands | Nazca | Arequipa | Colca Canyon | Puno | Lake Titicaca and Taquile Island | Cuzco | Inca Trail | Machu Picchu | Amazon Jungle | Lima
Description of Peru small group holiday, Inca Trail & Lake TiticacaVisit Peru and discover its highlights from Lima to Cuzco on this exciting 21-day journey, taking in modern cities and ancient worlds. Explore Perus lush Amazon jungle, the epic Lake Titicaca and the vast Colca Canyon. Enjoy local homestays, hike the famed Inca Trail to unforgettable Machu Picchu and immerse yourself in fascinating Peruvian culture while discovering the countrys history, buried deep within the walls of lost cities.
The highlights come thick and fast on this trip. Youll explore Lima, one of the prettiest cities in Latin America, with grand colonial facades, Spanish houses and rich culture. Adjust to the altitude with a pisco sour and some ceviche here. See the mysterious, enigmatic Nazca Lines and take a boat tour on Lake Titicaca, visiting the floating islands of Uros and spending the night with a local family in a traditional island community. Natural wonders include the Colca Canyon, which is twice as deep as the Grand Canyon, and the wild, biodiverse Amazon Jungle. Cuzco is South Americas oldest continuously inhabited city, with an interesting blend of Inca and colonial influences and then, of course, theres majestic Machu Picchu. Whether you trek the classic Inca Trail, the Inca Quarry Trail or take the scenic train route, the ancient ruins here are a beautiful, awe-inspiring destination.
Accommodation is sometimes basic, but includes an exciting mix of camping for three nights, two homestays, 11 nights in hotels and two nights in a jungle lodge. This trip involves a lot of walking to see the sights, and if you do the Inca trail, there will be strenuous hiking, too, so youll need a moderate level of fitness to enjoy it. Getting around this fascinating country involves a mix of planes, public buses and trains, with the odd taxi and private vehicle, too.

Small group adventureWhat is a small group adventure?
It's a great way to travel! Whether you are travelling on your own, with a partner or with friends, a small group trip is a fantastic way to see the world. You'll travel on a fixed itinerary that has been designed to help you discover the best of region. From the known highlights, the hidden gems that you won't find in the guidebooks.
Itineraries run on set departure dates, accompanied every step of the way by an English speaking local group leader. You chose the itinerary and the date that suits you best and you book on.
Why travel on a small group adventure?
Small groups allow us to explore where larger tour groups can't. Our maximum group size of 16 travellers allows us to use local transport to get from A to B, to visit rural villages, spend time with the locals and even stay at a local home overnight, and it allows us to give our travellers genuine, real life experiences of the countries we are visiting; what you'll be doing and how you'll travel depends entirely on your chosen itinerary.
Is an adventure right for me?
The word adventure means something different to everyone, and our range of trips reflects that. Whether you want to explore local markets, visit out of the way temples and meet local people or go on an early morning safari drive searching for the 'big five', we'll have a trip for you. If you are looking for a physical challenge such trekking the Kokoda Track or summiting Kilimanjaro, we can help with that too.
So what can I expect on this trip?
This is a classic style of small group adventure. You'll find your trip combines a good mix of included activities and free time, with some meals included as per your itinerary. We don't want you to feel chaperoned, it's your holiday not ours. Your group leader will be on hand to assist with organising anything you might wish to do in your free time, but how you spend it is up to you. Anything listed as included in your itinerary will be included in trip price; whereas anything listed as optional will be at an additional cost should you wish to take part.
These trips are great value, including things that you would struggle to organise independently, such as a night at a homestay in a remote village, or local guides around a remote place of interest. Transport will be a combination of private vehicle and public transport, whichever is the most appropriate for the route we are travelling; this might include train, plane, camel, tuk tuk, bicycle, boat
On a majority of these trips you'll stay in 2-3 star accommodation, locally owned and reflective of the region you are travelling through. All solo travellers will be automatically roomed on a twin share basis with another group member of the same sex, unless you opt to pay for your own room at time of booking. There are no compulsory single supplements for solo travellers willing to share. Single rooms aren't available on camping trips, and you will be expected to help out with camp tasks such as setting up and breaking down your camp.
Can I book my flights with you?
Yes! We are a fully ATOL bonded tour operator meaning that we can book flights from the UK as part of your holiday package. Just ask us for a quote including flights when you make your enquiry.

Carbon reduction
Your holiday will help support local people and conservation. We must also reduce CO2. Learn about the CO2 emissions of this holiday and how to reduce them.
As a global operator, we take our role in the tourism industry very seriously. We recognise the impact that tourism has on local communities and the environment, and we plan and operate all our tours with this front of our minds. We believe that every tour operator must be responsible in the way they conduct their business, to ensure the welfare of all people and the conservation of the environment.
We are committed to operating in a responsible manner, incorporating the principles of sustainable development in the way we provide our travellers with real life experiences. These values are more than just words on a page; they are ingrained in our culture and the daily operations of every office and every trip. In addition, we expect our staff and travellers to demonstrate the principles of responsible travel - respecting people, cultures and local environments; in the distribution of wealth; in good will and cross-cultural sharing; and in contributing to sustainable development.
We believe that responsible travel is about the attitude you take with you and the choices you make when travelling - to respect and benefit local people, their cultures, economy and the environment. This tour will take you on a journey through modern cities and ancient worlds where you will be immersed in Peruvian culture.
We take care to use local transport throughout, including buses, boats and canoes. We also stay in small, locally owned hotels and guesthouses which is a great way to put money back into the local economy. This trip includes a variety of unique and responsible accommodation including a homestay within the Colca community and a community island on Lake Titicaca and eco-friendly lodges which combines low-impact architecture with traditional native style in the Amazon Jungle. The homestays provide you with a great opportunity to interact with the locals by assisting your host with their daily activities such as planting, collecting water, peeling potatoes or preparing the family meal. A game of soccer is also a great way to make local friends. We source produce locally throughout the trip, eat at local restaurants and encourage our travellers to purchase souvenirs from local artisans and villages as we pass through.
Recruitment of our ground team comes from the local community. This not only gives a fantastic insight into the country and a snap shot of day to day life, but it also puts valuable financial resources back into the local economy, creating jobs and supporting local businesses.
As company our responsibilities dont stop when our tours end. Our own in house foundation has been in operation for over 10 years; a not-for-profit fund that has distributed over AU$3 million to more than 70 non-government organisations since 2002, from health care, education, human rights, child welfare, sustainable development and in environmental and wildlife protection. Donations come from our travellers and are then matched by us dollar for dollar.
We have two projects within Peru that we support. Firstly Living Heart, which is an organisation that aims to improve the lives of Andean women and children in the Sacred Valley area, near Cusco. This programme combines educational strategies, nutritional and health advice, including family planning support, and conservation education, with the purpose of promoting sustainable development and improving the quality of life for the Andean people. This work is particularly aimed at benefiting the lives of disadvantaged children. Secondly Escuela Wiñaypaq which offers free primary education in Quechua and Spanish to needy local children. Its aims are to improve the childrens education in disadvantaged rural areas and to strengthen the Andean culture and traditional values such as respect and harmony, to raise the children's self-confidence and to make them feel proud of their cultural heritage.
