Let’s start the design!


Before you create your brochure, let’s go step by step.

First, think about...
  • kinds of places and locations: a capital city, a city near the coast, a city near the mountains... 
  • natural attractions: waterfalls, lakes, national parks...
  • cultural visits you enjoy: museums, theatres, historical buildings...
  • recreation: sports, free-time activities, nightlife...
Then, choose a place. What’s the best way to visit it? Compare different itineraries according to people’s likes and interests, lifestyles, means of transport, preferences for travelling, for example, alone or with a group, with or without a guide…
Finally, write a summary with your ideas for your brochure in the comments section.
Now, you’re ready to start! Be creative and show your designing talent!
