North to Alaska!
The last few weeks have been a whirlwind! San Francisco was great, and I've never felt so right about any decision in my entire life. I have found what I was meant to do. I now know that I can go anywhere in the world and do a great job as a tour director.
The people in the course were wonderful. We couldn't have been more different, but we all had a common thread. Each one of us have a love for travel, new cultures and learning. After the many hours in class, we have a strong bond.
During the schooling in SF, we all had to do the SF city tour. That was a
lot of work, but it was a lot of fun. We also went to Yosemite. It was absolutely gorgeous! The picture to the left is one of the Giant Sequouias in Mariposa Grove and below is a view showing El Capatan, Half Dome and the Three Brothers. After going to Yosemite, I think I would really enjoy doing national park tours.
Now it's off to Alaska until September. There I'll be conducting land tours. I don't have a lot of details, but there is a week training session, which is reassuring. I'll keep you updated and posting photos every now and then.
My cell phone still works in the major Alaskan cities, so feel free to drop me a line, shoot me an email or leave a comment on the blog.
