Checking in Across Northeast Asia

Dear Partner,

The world is currently engulfed by the single greatest health crisis of the past 100 years. No matter where you live on the face of the earth COVID-19 has affected each of us in different ways. However, there is always a ‘but’, the disaster of COVID-19 has forced us to think and to challenge ourselves – to face the future. When this ends – and it will end – what will we have learned? How will we approach travel and, most importantly, what can we share with our guests?

In the midst of this pandemic storm we have been given the gift of time, fleeting as it might be, to take stock, to think, to change. Using this quiet opportunity, we have reviewed and revised every aspect of our work: our itineraries, our library of information on the countries in which we operate, guide training, and much more. Prior to COVID-19 we were very busy, so this break has allowed us the time we needed to evaluate what works best for us and thus improving our offerings and bringing the A&K Hong Kong team even closer together.

This newsletter takes a closer look at what we have on our doorstep – stories and anecdotes from staff members in our region about what they have discovered, learned or experienced during these unprecedented times. We hope that you, like us, will see that even in the most challenging of situations, there is hope and discovery.

Finally, a Chinese saying comes to mind – it is timely and good to share:

“A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor.”

With best wishes from the team at A&K Northeast Asia!
