“I had small children at the time, but I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity. Fortunately I had an excellent manager, who spent three or four years teaching me the business.”
- Eleanor Nelson, Owner, Travel House Inc,

Half of Eleanor’s staff have worked with her since she purchased Travel House, earning their status as some of the most well-traveled advisors in the business. Eleanor herself travels to two or three brand new destinations per year, and rarely returns to the same place twice. She is particularly well-versed in travel to Asia, and says that Myanmar will be her next trip. Traveling several months per year enables Eleanor to stay on top of travel trends and new properties.

Millions of birds will migrate across the United States this week.

Did you know bright city lights can disorient migrating birds, leading to fatal collisions with buildings?

How can we help our feathered friends? Turn off the lights!
