My name is Erick, I am native person of Toraja, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, member of Toraja Tourist Guide Association. My last Education is Bachelor of Education in German as Second Language. I have big interest and passion in foreign language, foreign people and culture. It has grown up since I was a little boy when I saw foreign travelers talking with my father and visiting tourist sites of Toraja. Since that time, i spent much time to learn English.

As I like to learn foreign language, I took language program at senior high school. Every day, I learned much two foreign languages, German and English for two years. After that, I expanded my passion at university and chose German language as my major. 

I have been working as a private tour guide and experiencing in Sulawesi tourism industry since 2007. My specialist languages are English and German.

Working as a tour guide needs a big concentration, cultural understanding, skill of communication and foreign language. Therefore, during a week, I attended the basic training for preparing myself to be a official tour guide. Here, i learned how to organize a good tour and explain interesting sights to travelers well. In the latest day of this training, I got a test as a requirement to gain a license and certificate from Tourism and Cultural Office of province government.

My goals are to accompany travelers visiting fascinating regions of South Sulawesi and explain unique cultural heritages of every region for travelers and observing activities of local people. Therefore, I really welcome foreign travelers to come and learn the cultural heritages of my country.
