JUNE is a Granada based agency, call us cultural explorers,
providing creative assistance to discover the city in unusual &
unexpected ways.
Our main activity is offering unique & inspiring encounters with
local people.
JUNE
is invented by Maya Kiran Ramdihal (35), a Dutch writer, editor and
Spain travel coordinator with a background in audiovisual media.
Born in Amsterdam to Indian Caribbean parents, she has lived in
Surinam, Amsterdam, Germany and since 2007 in Barcelona, Spain. She
moved in 2010 to Granada. Fascinated by bohemian live and a love for
getting lost in strange cities, travelling has been the biggest
inspiration to writing.
Backed by a great belief in cooincidence, she always seems to run
into the right people at the right place that helped her discover
the soul of a city. Knowing that it’s these encounters of countless
beauty that make a difference in a trip, she thought of setting up a
service through which travellers can encounter local people. Whether
it’s travelling alone or with someone else to cities for either work
or holiday, knowing the right people gets you to enter a city on a
far more personal level then scratching the surface with a guide or
book.
The
people you’ll meet are people that are not dedicated to tourism.
They have real life jobs next to working with JUNE.
Some
of the are the people Maya met in Granada and that showed her the
way. Above anything they are friendly, outgoing and interested in
meeting people from other cultures.
This
concept is all about having a good time &opening up your mind to
other cultures, about leaving the ‘tourist’ role & simply being you
in another context while experience another way of life. Even just
for one moment. Because it’s those unexpected encounters, twists and
turns that make travelling and life in general memorable.
