I have always enjoyed travel.  Out of high school, I attended a Travel Agency School, only to find out that way back then, it was tough to provide for yourself at the wages that were paid.  The perks were amazing, but I wouldn't be able to afford to live.  Anyway, 40 some years later, I have been fortunate enough to enjoy many cruises on several cruise lines and have trained on many more.  Hawaii and Alaska were at the top of the bucket list and have done both.  I also have first hand experience with almost all Caribbean cruise ports.  I love to plan and research, so selling travel isn't a "job" for me.
