Show Notes

One of the things we hear a lot (especially when we are on a trip), is “I want your job!” Yes, we travel a lot, and yes, the locations are usually fun and picturesque. But is it all awesome all the time? Well of course nothing is, and when we come back home from a research trip there is usually a pile of work waiting for us. We wanted to spend some time this week giving you an idea of what a day in the life of a travel agent is really like, what you should expect if you want to pursue a career in travel, and what you should beware of.

Do you have a secret fantasy about a career in travel?
