Lynn Brooks war eine echte New Yorkerin. Geboren und aufgewachsen in den fr\u00fchen 1900er Jahren lebte sie in dieser Metropole, in der sie – leider – 2013 verstorben ist. Ein Jahr zuvor nahm sie an der GGN-Jahrestagung in Br\u00fcssel teil.<\/p>\n

Lynn hat ihre Stadt immer geliebt. Nat\u00fcrlich wusste sie, dass New York vor allem am Ende des letzten Jahrhunderts mit einigen schlechten Zeiten konfrontiert war. Sie entschied sich jedoch, dieses Bild zu ver\u00e4ndern und die Welt zu ver\u00e4ndern, „auch wenn es nur ein bisschen ist“, sagte sie. Sie kam mit Greeters und die Idee war so einfach wie genial: \u201eIch m\u00f6chte, dass andere Leute New York so verstehen, wie ich es tue. Ich m\u00f6chte, dass sie die Stadt so erleben, wie ich es tue. Alles, was ich tun muss, ist, die Besucher einzuladen, Zeit mit mir oder einem Einwohner von New York zu verbringen – um ihnen das verborgene und sch\u00f6ne Leben in dieser Stadt zu zeigen. Wir werden ihnen das Feinkostgesch\u00e4ft zeigen, wo wir unsere S\u00fc\u00dfigkeiten bekommen, ihnen von den sch\u00f6nen Musikereignissen in kleineren Theatern erz\u00e4hlen, ihnen erkl\u00e4ren, wie sie sich fortbewegen, ihnen etwas \u00fcber unser Leben erz\u00e4hlen. \u201c Lynn begann mit Freunden und Leuten, die sie unterst\u00fctzen k\u00f6nnten, \u00fcber die Idee zu sprechen. Big Apple Greeters <\/a> wurde so im Jahr 1992 gegr\u00fcndet. Die lokale Presse hob ihre Geschichte auf, ebenso wie die nationale Presse und durch sie Besucher. Die Besucher wurden durch das Erlebte inspiriert und einige gr\u00fcndeten ihre eigene Greeter-Organisation. So organisierten Lynn und ihre Mitarbeiter 2005 ein Meeting, bei dem alle Greeters-Organisationen auf der ganzen Welt eingeladen wurden – damit wurde das Global Greeter Network als Vorg\u00e4nger der International Greeter Association gegr\u00fcndet. Im Jahr 2002, zehn Jahre nachdem Lynn Big Apple Greeters gegr\u00fcndet hatte, gab es f\u00fcnf Greeterorganisationen weltweit, 2010 waren es rund 25, 2015 waren wir bereits \u00fcber 100! Das Konzept zeigt, dass Menschen auf der ganzen Welt ber\u00fchrt werden. Daher erwarten wir, dass die Anzahl der Greeter-Destinationen in den kommenden Jahren rasch ansteigen wird.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
