WHAT IS IN A TRAVEL ADVISOR’S BAG
As a travel advisor, of course, I love to travel. You would think packing was second nature to me, but in fact, I must really think about it every time a new trip comes up. This week is going to be even more of a challenge as I am packing for 2 trips at once. A shorter 4 day one followed immediately by a longer 10-day trip. Today’s blog is about what is in a travel advisor’s bag. At least the one that I carry on the plane. What are the most important things that I pack

PANDEMIC VS ENDEMIC
What is the difference between pandemic and endemic? A pandemic is a worldwide spread disease. The WHO officially declared a pandemic of COVID-19 in March of 2020. This term can be used to describe a disease that spread across a country, but usually its more for a disease that is spread across continents, such as COVID-19. So, what does endemic mean? Endemic means natural to, native to, confined to, or widespread within a place or population. This relates more to restricted to a particular location or group of people. An example is malaria which is said to be endemic to tropical regions. Information quoted from dictionary.com

OH, THE AIRPORT
I love to go to the airport as I know that I will soon be traveling somewhere. But it’s not always the easiest of things to get through the security and all the things that come along with flying these days. It can be a pain in the butt even. Today’s blog I am going to discuss the three different things you can do to speed up the security part of the airport.

THE WORLD IS OPENING BACK UP
Who is excited with me? I had a moment of euphoria when I read that the United Kingdom has decided to remove the testing policies and quarantine rules to enter if you were vaccinated. This is like music to my ears. They are also removing the mask mandate (except on public transports and such) which is also great news. I saw visions in my head of life going back to normal after two years of wondering if it ever would. The world is opening back up people, it’s time to travel again!

SIMPLY SCOTTSDALE
I have been craving a getaway as I haven’t travelled in the month of December yet. So, Richard and I are off to Scottsdale Arizona for a 3-day weekend. We will work from the pool on Friday and then enjoy the weekend with warmer weather than in Colorado. Have you ever thought about a long weekend getaway domestically? I will admit I am usually a “long distance” traveler. Simply Scottsdale, I thought I would introduce you to some resorts that you could enjoy during a long weekend here.

TRAVEL LOVER GIFT GIVING
If you are like me, this is a tough subject! My passion is traveling and here it is Christmas time. Everyone wants ideas for gifts, and of course, I don’t really need anything. I crave experiences, new culinary delights, spending time in another country. Those do not really make great Christmas gifts. So… this edition… Travel lover gift gifting. (The super short version as I don’t have that many ideas).
