Last Friday marked my 10 year anniversary at MTA Travel! I have taken this week to reflect on that time.
I started with MTA Travel when Taj had just turned 1 a few weeks earlier. Those early days were different than now, they consisted of juggling between naps, booking trips at night, crying babies on the phone calls but I was happy because I was back doing what I loved!
Then along came Paige and at 6 weeks old I went back to work. That upped the craziness. Patiently my clients waited and held as I handled a toddler and baby! Night work continued, booking trips between naps, interruptions from the kids on phone calls sometimes just to say hello to who ever I was talking too, the love of travel still pushing me to continue.
The next few years flew by and my client base grew. I was so lucky to get to go to South America, Europe, Queensland, New Zealand and many conferences in Perth during that time.
Then just as Paige started school full time, COVID hit, and because of the amazing business model MTA has, I was able to work at refunding, retrieving (people from overseas) and educating my client with online support evening and then I just wait till the world started spinning again.
Then the world started spinning and it has been busy, busier than ever. Things have changed, Taj and Paige are older now, my time is spent being a farmers wife/ assistant and taxi and mother and finally I am back also being a travel advisor.
I am so thankful to be able to do what I love, I am thankful for my clients who are amazing, fun, understanding and passionate. Who entrust me with the most awesome journeys, who call me when they are most in need, or just need a holiday!I am also thankful I can do what I love whilst also being a mum and a wife and a farm assistant! Mobile and also from home.
Here’s to the next 10 year 🥂
