I have been leading these tours to central and eastern Europe for nearly 20 years and most of the tour members are people who have been on previous tours. So there is no advertising, it has all been by word of mouth. The 2018 tour has 30 people enrolled and it happens that two people have just cancelled because of ill-health. The hotels and other attractions are all booked so there is an opportunity here for anyone interested in a tour which takes you off the beaten track, meeting the locals and enjoying folk song and dance festivals on the way.

We’ve had hundreds of you tell us just what makes your neighbour ‘awesome’ with some amazing stories. Do you have an awesome neighbour you haven’t told us about?

It could be a neighbour who donates time to a sports team in your neighbourhood or someone who brings your bins up the driveway every week. Maybe they’re just really unique; the neighbour who drives that bright pink car or skateboards with the kids to school each day.

Tell us why your neighbour is awesome and you could win one of four $250 Prezzy® cards (plus one for your Awesome Neighbour).
