"Being a travel consultant
is the next best thing to traveling yourself. In one day you can plan an
itinerary for a Tahiti cruise, plot a trek through Kuala Lumpur, price
an independent train trip through Italy, and then arrange to fly a client
last-minute to surprise his fiancee in California."
- Julie Botteri, Travel
Consultant and Author
