Imagine a travel experience different from those offered by the classic travel agencies. An authentic<\/strong>, immersive<\/strong> and eco-sustainable<\/strong> experience through Italy. This is what Britt Voorsmit<\/strong> proposes. After graduating in International Tourism Management at Breda University of Applied Sciences (Netherlands), with a thesis that explored the experiences of Ecobnb in the Veneto countryside.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“I would like to offer\u00a0exclusive one-to-one travel services.<\/em>” – Britt tells me. “Immersive and sustainable travel experiences in Veneto and northern Italy<\/em>“. It’s here, in fact, that Britt decided to move to live. Attracted by the landscapes of the Venetian Lagoon<\/strong>, the unique culture and nature of Italy, and the love that it has encountered in our country. To build its itineraries Britt collaborates with Ecobnb and with the best eco-sustainable realities, which he personally meets. Let’s get to know you better in this interview<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Britt, writing in the Italian countryside<\/div><\/div>\n

Where does your passion for travel come from?<\/h4>\n

This started already when I was young. My family likes to travel a lot and I developed the same love for seeing different places. Italy was one of my favorites because of the culture, the foods, \u201cthe good life\u201d people seemed to live. I started my Bachelor study in Tourism Management and Consultancy and chose the Italian language specialization. I got to know more about Italy and wanted to dive deeper and deeper. It resulted in my thesis study where I interviewed local small business owners and this grew into the project of Imtrex Travel. I listened, I observed, I reflected and I knew that I wanted to work with these local small business owners and connect them with travelers that are looking for a meaningful travel experience.<\/p>\n

What is your idea of sustainable travel?<\/h4>\n

To travel sustainably<\/strong> for me is to travel with awareness. Be aware where you are, be aware what local people do, be aware of the nature you are in, be aware of all the senses that you feel. I believe that subsequently the rest follows by itself. An example of travel with awareness is to listen to the story<\/strong> behind your breakfast in your accommodation from the one who prepared it. In this way you are open-minded and you create understanding. Being aware of what you have in front of you and where it comes from might make you choose what you pick in a more reasonable way. Of course, you would need the right locals<\/strong> who would like to share this with you.<\/p>\n

I believe that the sustainable travel behavior <\/a>of people should come from the inside out instead of the outside in. Therefore, with Imtrex Travel<\/strong> I try to give each traveler their own Immersive Travel Experience<\/strong> by connecting them with local suppliers who offer this. In this way I hope to contribute to this idea of sustainable travel. Contribute by inspiring people to search for these kind of meaningful travel experiences, not only in Italy<\/strong>, but everywhere!<\/p>\n\n\t\t
