My name is Lence or Leni much easier to remember, coming from Skopje the capital of Macedonia. I have Ph bachelor degree in geography since 1993 and the love of the nature, interest of a different culture and discovering of new places is more than enough reason to start to travel as a student. I leaved abroad in a few countries but I am settled now in my native town for the last 10 years. I do yoga and have small garden nursery. Working as interpreter for UN peace forces in the past and other foreign companies I had a chance to show around the city and further so I started to be a tourist guide for group of friends. Now I do it professionally and responsibly with enthusiasm hosting the guests from around the world. I have over 30years driving experience and I do customized tours in order to meet the personal desires and needs of the clients. I try each tour to represent with detailed information following the quality of the service. My country has abundance of cultural and historical cites, mixture of architecture and natural beauty. But due to its lack of coastline and inland location, Macedonia is often overlooked as a holiday destination. Yet with its UNESCO world heritage national parks, dramatic mountain ranges and the captivating Lake Ohrid, the country is home to some hidden, gorgeous destinations. An of course not to forget to mention the hospitality of Macedonians and our traditional cousin with many homemade specialties. Eastern region of Macedonia is popular for hiking and fishing many rural settlements that practice rural tourism. There are ski paths, accommodation facilities, holiday homes, tourist resorts . If you would like to spent some time to discover this small but very diverse country through the eye of the local, heаr the legends and make new memories I offer you my time to fulfill your requests. I really enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with people from a diverse range of cultural, professional and academic backgrounds. Come and enjoy history, culture, cuisine, nice people and beautiful nature. I'm happy to customise all tours according to your preferences. -License of Macedonian Tour Guides Association and a license Tour Companion for the Tours out of Macedonia -Certificate of English language by "Koco Racin University" Skopje -Ph bachelor degree of Geography by University if Cyril and Methodius Skopje none
