The Craftsmen Time Machine

Phones are still ringing in your ears, and you can hear the screams of your colleagues: Buy TMS on 890, short position on RMS 200… In front of your eyes are the flashing screens with stock quotes, coloured in red or green according to the mood of the brokers. Yes, Wall Street is still chasing you, but you are glad you still found the strength to give up the stock market. After a hectic 12-year career at a leading investment bank in the City, he had a seizure and realized that this was just the beginning of serious health problems. The psychologist you visit uses several complex terms to describe your condition, which can generally be summarized as a burnout. Namely, you had to leave. You had to turn your back on the financial sphere, the stock markets, and the huge capital that you moved with the click of a mouse. You had to give up the six-figure salary, the Manhattan penthouse, and the yellow Lamborghini in front of the lawn. Otherwise, you would not have survived long…

Then he made the most radical decision of his life. To return to your homeland and look for a calmer and more harmonious environment in which to settle. He had raised enough to invest in a small business to make a living without breaking your nerves. You are confident that with your knowledge of the business world and your interest in the sustainable development of tourism, you will be able to make a good investment, which you will later develop. You have focused on the traditional livelihood in the Bulgarian-Serbian cross-border region - tourism, agriculture, crafts. You have an idea to combine the individual elements of the tourist experience to offer the people of the city what they lack - freedom and tranquillity.

To get to know the region better, you sign up for a sightseeing tour of the region with a focus on traditions and crafts. After its completion, you will have to decide in which area to invest and how to develop your future business model.

Good luck!
