Thank you again #NYTTS I loved media and trade day!
I enjoyed the speakers, keynotes and having time to reconnect with good friends. I look forward to traveling to many new places in 2019.
Who did I see? #NYTTravelShow
Aggressor Adventures: did you know they have a dive boat in Oman and a safari expedition in Sri Lanka?
One Ocean Expeditions to explore the Arctic and Antarctic
PADI: Do you scuba dive? I love to go scuba diving!
DK EyeWitness Travel books: I used many of their books in my classroom. I love their maps and beautiful color photos. I cannot wait to go back to Portugal.
Curacoa: I met Miss Curacoa and learning to say bye-bye Papiamento which is the creole language spoken in the Dutch Caribbean. There are so many destinations at this show! I loved wandering the aisles to dream of where to go next.
Quark Expeditions: I want to travel to Greenland and Antarctica for the first time. I have never been to either place. Have you been yet?
Sandals Resorts: all inclusive resorts in the Caribbean! I am going to JAMAICA IN Feb 2019 to check it out!
Chernobyl Tour: Would you do it?
Bhutan! This country with a focus on happiness is on the top of my bucket list. I have not been yet but I hope to go sometime soon!
Azores: Another location that is on my list! I have not been yet.
Tahiti: I love the beautiful islands of French Polynesia. I hiked in Moorea and went diving in Bora Bora. There are so many more islands to explore.
Brazil: One of the few places in South America that I have not yet seen. I want to see the beaches, the cities and the samba!
