This started in 2012 by collecting used winter sports equipment. Today, many companies and individuals have connected with us. As a result, we are increasingly able to launch new projects.\n\nTo make the projects a success, good supervision is essential. Of course, the initiative must come from local people. We only want to provide a supporting role where local people can use our knowledge and network. Therefore, it is critical that we make the right consideration in the individuals and organizations we trust with our help. This is where we are very precise.\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The latest news about our projects<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><li><div class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__featured-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694591062163-300x169.webp\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"Volleyball Kyrgyzstan\" style=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694591062163-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694591062163-1024x577.webp 1024w, https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694591062163-768x433.webp 768w, https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694591062163.webp 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/en\/volleyball-the-weird-westerners-vs-the-kyrgyz-kids\/\">Volleyball &#8211; The Weird Westerners vs. the Kyrgyz Kids<\/a><div class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-excerpt\">Each winter season in Jyrgalan is never like the other; snowfall levels and conditions change, people that travel from far and wide to rip up the powder bring their unique blend of talent and stories, and the tirelessly hard working staff of Ryce Travel can draw in bright new team faces keen to get out\u2026 <a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/en\/volleyball-the-weird-westerners-vs-the-kyrgyz-kids\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">: Volleyball &#8211; The Weird Westerners vs. the Kyrgyz Kids<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__featured-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"139\" src=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694672558444-300x139.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" style=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694672558444-300x139.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694672558444-768x355.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1694672558444.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div><a class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/rycetravel.com\/en\/interalpin-messe-innsbruck\/\">InterAlpin Messe, Innsbr\u00fcck<\/a><div class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__post-excerpt\">Together with the guides of Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan and Georgia we have visited the InterAlpin Messe in Innsbr\u00fcck, Austria.
