✨Meet Deseree from All Over the Map an affiliate of Fareconnect ✨

🌍 How long have you been a travel agent?
💬 7 years

💼 Why did you get started as a travel agent?
💬 I became a travel agent because I have a passion for exploring new places and cultures, and I wanted to help others experience the joys of travel as well. Additionally, I enjoy the challenge of planning and organizing trips to create unforgettable experiences for my clients.

🌟 What is your favorite trip you’ve ever booked?
💬 Booking trips is a blast for me! Every one of them is special for my clients, and I just love being a part of their vacation, whether it's a quick getaway or a big milestone trip. But you know what? If I had to pick a favorite, it's definitely those multi-generational adventures where grandparents get to hang out with the whole family, making memories with the grandkids. There's just something so heartwarming about seeing families bond and have a blast together.

🏝️ What is one place you think everyone needs to visit and why?
💬 Everyone should visit a destination that aligns with their interests and passions, whether it's exploring the historic streets of Rome, relaxing on the pristine beaches of Fiji, or trekking through the lush rainforests of Costa Rica. The world is full of diverse cultures, landscapes, and experiences waiting to be discovered, so the best place to visit ultimately depends on what resonates with each individual traveler.

✈ How many countries have you traveled to?
💬 11 countries

🇺🇸 Where are you traveling to next?
💬 2024 has a trip to Seattle, Mexico to check out the new Dreams in Mazatlan and check a bucket list experience off our list; Day of the Dead, Vegas for a concert and NFR and anywhere else I can make happen.

💡 One piece of advice for anyone becoming a travel agent?
💬 Dive deep into understanding your clients' dreams and desires, while nurturing your own passion for exploration. Embrace technology as your ally and cultivate connections within the industry to craft unforgettable journeys for your clients and yourself.

✨Meet Donna from Travel- Fareconnect Agent ✨

🌍 How long have you been a travel agent?
💬 4 years

💼 Why did you get started as a travel agent?
💬 I became a travel agent because I truly believe that "we need memories, not things." This belief has brought me here so I help others create unforgettable experiences.

🌟 What is your favorite trip you’ve ever booked?
💬 One of my favorite trips I've ever booked was for a three-generation family of three: a grandmother, her daughter, and her grandson. The grandmother had always dreamed of seeing the castles of Europe. Grandma was 80ish at the time with a bit of mobility considerations. My whole heart was in this trip as it felt as though I was planning for my own Grandmother/Mother. I planned an enchanting river cruise along the Danube, paired with a three-day land tour to explore area more. When they returned, the family couldn't stop talking about their adventure. The grandmother said it was a dream come true, and the daughter and grandson cherished the memories they created together. Planning this trip was incredibly fulfilling for me, as it reminded me of the power of travel to bring families closer and make lifelong dreams a reality. It was one of those trips that I wanted to travel along with them to experience it all as well!

🏝️ What is one place you think everyone needs to visit and why?
💬 When asked where the one place people should visit is, my answer would be: anyplace that brings you joy and takes you outside your comfort zone. Visit a place that you return with a deeper understanding and appreciation of a different culture.

✈ How many countries have you traveled to?
💬 4 countries

🇲🇽 Where are you traveling to next?
💬 My next planned travel is to Mexico. Staying at the Haven Riviera with a group of friends to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday.

💡 One piece of advice for anyone becoming a travel agent?
💬 Take the time and research the industry as well as your options for joining the industry and be an "out of the box" thinker.
