To travel is to live” was a sentiment expressed by the Danish poet and writer Hans Christian Andersen, who clearly knew about more than just fairy tales. What is certainly true is that travel stands for a spirit of adventure and discovery, it opens our eyes and teaches tolerance. Whether you are travelling near or far, to exotic lands or to find yourself, taking a short break or embarking on a world tour – it is rarely just about the arrival. Our Globetrotter also set out to discover the world – accompanied by you.
When in summer 2018 we launched our appeal to take the Globetrotter angel with you on your travels, we had no idea how many friends of our manufactory would take part in this campaign. Our angel has now travelled at least once around the globe – all the way from Australia to America. We were thrilled to receive all your pictures, whether your photo was taken far afield or closer to home, and we would like to thank all of you who took part.
And because every journey must come to an end, all participants were entered into a prize draw to win one of ten examples of the next Gold Edition, and the winners have already been notified. As it would be too bad if all your submissions just disappeared into a photo album, we have decided to keep the picture gallery up and running and we look forward to receiving more of your Globetrotter holiday photos.
