⟩ As you know working with tourists can be exhausting – people can be tired, cranky, sick, stubborn, they whine…And you need to be upbeat and full of energy for hours. What keeps you doing it? Whats most rewarding about this job?
What’s most rewarding is the feeling that I’m doing something good not just for me but for others, for my country. Those of us in tourism who are in direct contact with tourists, we also have a great responsibility, and I take a lot of pleasure in the fact that I still don’t feel the burden of that responsibility but rather find enjoyment in it.
I love seeing the spark in the eyes and smile on the face of a guest after seeing, for example, Plitvice, or another of our country’s beauties. I know then that I took part in the creating of an experience that is new for them. Of course, there are other experiences too, work which involves constant interaction with people is often draining, but fortunately it also renews you.
