My travel style: Planned itinerary, sightseeing, good food.
Countries I’ve visited: Four.
I chose to study travel & tourism because: I have always had a strong passion for travelling the world. I enjoy travelling to a new destination and then coming back and sharing my experiences with others.
My greatest strength: Attention to detail.
My dream job: Working at a tour operator or travel agency, putting my organizational skills and experience to good use while helping others book their dream vacations. As an added bonus I would love the opportunity to go on FAM trips.
The most exciting travel trend right now: Bucket list trips. I think this pandemic has made a lot of people realize that life is too short and, once it is safe to do so, they will make travel a priority and go on these trips that they have been dreaming about their whole lives.
Being in London was especially memorable because I had the opportunity to experience, in person, famous landmarks and historical places that I’d only seen in movies and read about in books.

First place I will visit post-pandemic: France. I want to see their world-famous attractions and sample their cuisine.
On my bucket list: Travelling all throughout Europe.
My greatest achievement: Being a member of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society.
Best travel advice I’ve received: Always have a plan B.
One positive and lasting outcome the pandemic will have on the travel industry: I think that during the pandemic, people realized how much travelling means to them. This pent-up demand should benefit the industry for years to come.
