???? Travel designer, I organise for you - and with you - the kind of holiday that will suit you best. Together we can co-create a unique travel experience in line with your interests, needs and dreams as well as with the amount of time and the budget that you have at your disposal
How does it work?
You give me your travel idea (if you don't have any, I'll be happy to suggest something inspiring), and I then use it as the basis for a made-to-measure programme that would take into account your specific needs and desires, as well as whether you are travelling solo or as a couple, with your family or a group of friends
You can get a free cost estimate for your dream trip project
Aims and goals :
- Authentic travel experiences in total autonomy and at your own pace
- High-quality services
- Direct contact with locals
- Fair-trade tourism
Values:
- tailor -made holidays built around the principles of sustainable tourism and with respect for the natural, cultural and social environment of places being visited;
- commitment to partner exclusively with small family businesses, the motive behind being to maintain the quality of the services provided, as well as to support economic activities that could benefit the population (which is particularly important for rural communities), to ensure preservation of an area's natural, cultural and social resources and to create conditions for travellers' contact with local inhabitants in an authentic, non-touristy way
Arranging theme trips :
The Nouvelle Odyssée organises theme trips intended for groups of no more than 14 travellers. The size limit helps to make sure each member's personal needs and interests are reckoned with and that the friendly vibes within a group are maintained all along. One other reason is to avoid disturbing local wildlife (for trips that involve nature outings)
Nouvelle Odyssée's hallmark:
- non-standard, made-to-measure trips, to suit your budget, lifestyle, needs and aspirations;
- arrival and departure dates to be chosen at your convenience;
- a detailed programme of your stay, complete with relevant travel tips so that you can have an enjoyable and smooth-running trip;

Nouvelle Odyssee's travel philosophy:
- openness (experiencing one's own Odyssey journey with the eyes, mind and heart wide open);
- slow tourism (taking one's time to explore little by little (siga-siga in Greek)).
Indeed, when you have no group to catch up with and there is no rush for you to get to your next destination, why not let yourself forget time for a while and indulge in sunset watching, enjoy a laid-back chat with locals, or just get some rest?

Day 2 (January 18th, Saturday) / Third Session
Panel Discussion
The Effects of Skopje 2014 on the Intra--Regional Foreign Policies: Countering Challenges through Policy Mechanisms Conceived Beyond the Discourses of National History
Igor Jovanoski, ISSHS, Macedonia
Akis Gavriilidis, Social Laboratory/Makedonia University in Thessaloniki, Greece
Goran Janev, ISPPI-University of Skopje, Macedonia
Moderator: Jordan Shishovski, ISSHS, Macedonia
The main idea behind the conference:
In the last two decades, the region of Southeast Europe -- not only the Western Balkans -- has been marked by a politics based on the pronounced primacy of the issue of national identity over othersocio-political questions. National identity as an issue per se entails material cultural and academic processes aiming at the construction and fixing of an idea and a sense of a collective. These processes work through the means of recognition, legitimization and symbolic production that maintains, enriches and perpetuates the representation of the national self. Artistic production, academic re-creation of the national truth and re-production of the cultural symbolic (essentially patriarchal) in the fields of humanities are at work in the institutions of the state, in public and private universities and media. Ample evidence in terms of material culture and recorded public discourse corroborates our claim that the question of national identity determines the course of politics, nationally and internationally, in Macedonia but also in neighboring Greece, Bulgaria, Serbia and Kosovo. This implies that the issue of political integration of the entire region of SEE, including Western Balkans, is not one which can be dealt with through political means senso strictu or technocratically. It is a process which requires complex understanding and study of critical cultural and cross-disciplinary analytical approach which entails cultural-esthetical critique and the inclusion of gender perspective aiming at policy solutions which address the complex reality at stake. Another issue that needs to be addressed is the fact that the unambiguous interpellation to fidelity to the national collective unity to which both the political right and left respond in an almost identical way paralyses any productive political debate on all other social-political themes. Avoiding the label of a traitor in a country that feels threatened bynegation of its very self becomes the political imperative which conditions the way in which all other issues are addressed. In Macedonia, the esthetical-cultural project Skopje 2014 overshadows all other themes in Macedonian political debate; in Greece, the Macedonian question was the only one which could bring Syriza close to the positions of the political center (both left and right) as it unities opposed political forces in Bulgaria. The Kosovo question is still central to the Serbian political discourse in spite of the fact that Republic of Kosovo has functioned as an independent country since 2008. And these are just a few among many examples in the region of post-Yugoslavia and its neighbors.

Reaching out to Macedonia Community Blood and Food Drive 2012
On September 10, 2012 the US Embassy partnered with the City Red Cross of Skopje to collect blood, food and financial donations for the needy citizens of Macedonia. This is the fourth year we have sponsored a Blood and Food Drive with the Red Cross -- as a manifestation of President Obama's call to community service to honor the victims of the attacks of September 11, 2001.
Many people from different ethnicities, religions and socio-economic class participated. This year, Ambassadors and representatives of the countries that were affected by the 9/11 attack, including China, France, Germany, Serbia, Spain, Switzerland, and Ukraine also joined in the event. Together with Parliamentarians and Ministers, citizens and diplomats alike stood in solidarity to promote community service through personal involvement.
Secretary General of the Red Cross Sait Saiti joined the Ambassador in speaking about the value of community service.
This year's event built upon the success of last year's drive, with large numbers of blood donations, as well as food and cash donations. The Red Cross will use the donations to provide for families in need during the coming winter.
The Embassy would like to thank those who donated and those who volunteered for this event to commemorate the victims of September 11. We encourage those who could not join us to visit one of the Red Cross offices and make a donation. There is no challenge too great if we work together to face it - but we all must do our part. Even one donation could save someone's life.
