How Do You Get Your Hair Like Dahvievanity

for you It's easy to say ... New Zealand

Paolo and Lorenzo to Gertrude Saddle
Fiordland National Park - New Zealand

After spending four months in New Zelanda, dopo esserci tornati per un altro mese e mezzo per perlustrare tutti gli itinerari previsti e testare tutti gli alloggi (non che sia stato un sacrificio...intendiamoci) affrontiamo un elemento nuovo ed insidioso: la "Concession application".
Sì perché se vuoi accompagnare viaggiatori nelle aree protette della Nuova Zelanda, e sono molte, devi dimostrare di avere le carte in regola, ma anche di essere davvero determinato a farlo. Devi essere capace, cioè, di conquistare la "Concessione per attività turistico/ricreative" da parte del Dipertimento per la Conservazione.

Cosa richiede il Department of Conservation (DOC) per emettere la Concessione?
1) That proves that you know in minute detail all the paths that you wish to follow in protected areas
2) What you know all the risks to which people can be exposed to accompany
3) That you submit to an evaluation of the DOC written plan to mitigate risks and a strategy of behavior in an emergency
4) That there are three persons or entities willing to testify about your reliability
5) What you have conducted interviews with one or more delegates to the DOC before requesting granting
6) That you have met some representative of the Maori community before asking for the grant
7) Whether you have a Safety Plan updated and rigorous and that this has been assessed and certified by an external auditor in New Zealand
8) Whether you prepare an Environmental Impact Assessment which will be judged by the DOC
9) Which proves you know all the natural elements that may be affected by your presence in protected areas (fauna, flora, soil, water, noise and light)
10) What you demonstrate you know how to avoid leaving traces of your presence or effect on the elements listed above
11) What you demonstrate your skills and your attitude through subscriptions to professional associations, curriculum, publications, websites, reviews and all that you can come up with
12) What you submit to the evaluation of the DOC your insurance strategy for your organization, your guides and your customers
12) Whether you are willing to pay before applying for a grant (non-refundable amounts if the application is rejected)

It 's a long path tortuous and we have chosen to take because, despite the difficulties and requires the commitment it requires, testifies to the value and reliability of management strategy and promote the area by New Zealand. Sample is the availability of the DOC officials that respond instantly to e-mail and you are bending over backwards to help you organize information. In the end, if we do, we are proud of our concession.
We can not but think that here there is nothing like that ...
