Multi-Track Journey

Organizing a trip for a diverse group of individuals can be challenging, considering each participant’s different interests and background, especially when it comes to achieving organizational goals and still considering the individual. It requires careful planning, flexibility, and creativity in accommodating various interests and backgrounds while maintaining group unity.
