I gained my passion for travel at a very young age. Seeing my father take his many business trips and return home with souvenirs and stories from all over the world had me eager to experience it myself. There is one experience that I will never forget, which made me very passionate about being a travel agent: I had met a local travel agent during my trip in Bosnia-Herzegovina; he asked me if I had gotten my "local experience" yet. He suggested I visit an elderly Bosnian woman he referred to as "grandma" to visit her village and spend a night with her. That experience has been (to this day) the best experience of my life. She spoke zero English, I spoke zero Bosnian, but we had an amazing evening. I enjoyed a homemade dinner and spent the evening in the village listening to traditional music. It was a night I will never forget, all thanks to that travel agent that knew exactly what I needed. ;)

Favourite Travel Memory
Cooking class in Marrakech Morocco! Learning a new recipe and ways of cooking not only adds on to your culinary knowledge but also teaches you all about the culture of the food. I enjoyed doing this experience with a group because in addition to the cooking class I learned so much about the different cultures of those in the group. Food is a wonderful way to learn all about the beauty the world has to offer.
