The Beginning: An Introdcution to Travel Further

                                                                      Hello everyone! In introducing my new business venture, I really wanted to make sure you got to really know me, Shannon. That little girl in the pink over to the right, that was me on my first big trip to visit an awesome pen pal in the Bahamas. That was my first day in Nassau and if you look into my eyes, you can see that I was already infected by awe and inspiration at seeing this different world where people like you and me lived their everyday lives. That was all it took to hook me on travel for the rest of my life. I have been lucky enough to see some amazing places, and I can...

But, there is definitely something we need to talk about before I get in to my own travels or specific destinations and that something is you. That is right, we need to talk about you. For the past few months many friends and family have been asking me questions about how they can go about traveling the cheapest way possible. I have no problem with people trying to save money and travel on a budget or asking me for advice, but just hear me out real quick because I want to explain a few things about traveling and how sometimes we are doing ourselves a disservice by focusing on quantity as opposed to quality and the ramifications that can sometimes come from that kind of travel. I also hope to convey how sometimes a travel consultant/agent can help with different options without having to sacrifice your vacation and ...
