#InterNationsCelebration: The Two Winners of Our Instagram Contest

Cristina Causone from Frankfurt and Trisha Thow from Singapore all posted wonderful pictures showcasing how they celebrated InterNations’ 10th anniversary with their groups. They each won a Hero Sessions GoPro, and we are secretly hoping that this cool gadget will encourage them keep on recording their memories in the making, and sharing with us the precious moments they experience with their group members. So lets dive in and learn a little bit more about these Consuls, and the passions that make them tick!

Frankfurt

Cristina was busy celebrating with her InterSkates Group in Frankfurt. Not long after joining InterNations in June last year, Cristina became involved as Consul for the group, for whom she especially enjoys hosting small and intimate gatherings on ice. Despite the cold, the atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, and everybody from beginners to professional skaters are invited to come along. Through their shared hobby, the small group of skaters have become true friends, always continuing on for dinner or drinks once they have skated to their heart’s content. In September, the InterSkates Group had two reasons to celebrate — InterNations 10th anniversary combined with the opening of the ice skating season in Frankfurt. True to form, they dusted off their skates and took to the ice, warming up their muscles for the skating season ahead.

Singapore

Travelling a little bit further to Singapore, Trisha was busy throwing an InterNations Turns 10 celebration of her own! After becoming bored of the monotonous work and gym routine and eager to make new international friends, Trisha joined InterNations in 2014.  A keen water enthusiast with diving experience all over South East Asia, Trisha put her hand up to become Consul and organize regular get-togethers for the Singapore Divers Group. Since then, Trisha has additionally taken on Consul positions in the Surf & Chillout Weekends Group, the Biking Group, as well the Obstacle Course Racing Group, making for an interesting and diverse array of activities she hosts every month. For InterNations 10th anniversary, Trisha organized a trip for her Surf & Chillout Weekends Group to Batam Islands in Indonesia. The group celebrated the momentous milestone by cable skiing and drinking beer in the warm sun.

Thanks to Cristina and Trisha for sharing their photographs from their InterNations Turns 10 celebrations, and we look forward to seeing more pictures taken with your new Hero Sessions GoPros.
