Long before I worked in the travel industry, I was a traveler. I've been lucky enough to explore 65 different countries on all six inhabited continents and have had the chance to both live and work around the world for most of my professional career. I've worked on major international projects in Australia, China, France and South Africa and I continue to circle the globe several times each year. I share many of my travel experiences on Style Hi Club. Professionally, I oversee all marketing and communications for a major international tourism board as well as sit on various travel related boards. Every day I remind myself how lucky I am to have had the opportunity to combine my love of travel with my career. The travel industry is complicated, and as a way of giving back, I want to help others to have the same opportunities by becoming knowledgeable, informed and able to identify possibilities otherwise unknown.
What if my current career has nothing to do with travel?  Most people buy this guide specifically because their career has nothing to do with the travel industry. This eBook will teach you everything you need to become an expert on the travel industry and apply the skills you do have to take your career in an exciting, new direction.  What if I've never actually traveled anywhere?  Now is the time to start! With the information in this book you will know exactly where to start and where you can take some risks to kick off a career in travel.  What if I have questions that aren't answered in this book?  Along with the book you will get my personal contact details. I am happy to assist personally as much as possible. How To Work In Travel (click here )
