[Week 131] Weekend Trade: Trading An Opportunity

in Weekend Experiences2 years ago (edited)

Hy everyone, I hope you are doing good this weekend, in response to the weekend trade contest, I will like to share where I traded alongside with the individual in question and why I did it.

Honestly this question would present my experience I had with trading my friend in a team who were meant to hike for mount Kilimanjaro whilst I was to visit the Mahale national park.

Firstly I would also like to define what it means to trade places.

To trade place implies swapping place especially position with someone else.

For instance, If I traded my position with someone who sits closer to one of my intelligent friend so I could be able to cheat in an exam, I have successfully traded place with the person. The person will come to my seat and I will go to the person’s seat in order to sit closer to my intelligent friend.

But I find this context likely to suit my passion, I look at it if I were to trade places with someone who is an adventurist like me who will it be and why.

This reminds me on an incident stated below.

Here is Mr Akoy, I met him on an adventurous mission to mount Mahale in Tanzania which happened long ago.

we have been friends since the first day we interacted and I find him more interesting for adventures because he got more experience on tourism, he was our leader then. He could jist you up about hiking experience which makes one carried away.

Usually my organization have a global team where on every weekend, groups of people are been selected for hiking or tourists visits to different places and I was selected for visit the Mahale national park. I find it uninteresting because I had already visited the park before and wanted to tryout something new this time around (mount kilimanjaro).

Mr Akoy was selected for the team on hiking mission to mount Kilimanjaro and I was selected to visit the Mahale park. I had to trade places with Mr Akoy, whilst he allows his name be included for people that will visit the Mahale national park and mine for people hiking to Mount Kilimanjaro. He also offered me the opportunity to swap team with him.

Then I got included for people who will be going for hiking in mount Kilimanjaro.

But the funniest of all was that he still found his way back to the team of those who will hike for mount Kilimanjoro due to some unforeseen circumstance. The team to visit the mount Kilimanjaro got no leader and since he got experience in that, he was told to join my team.

This was double impressive as it was my first time hiking for mount Kilimanjaro.
The hiking experience was smooth one and also tiring because of the scorching sun. But it was an awesome experience.
Thanks so much for reading
