As I begin my 7th year as the owner of Platinum Travel, I would like to share with you some things you may not know about me. After all, when you become one of my guests, I take the time to find out your likes and dislikes in order to find you the perfect vacation, so I figured it’s only fair to turn the tables around a bit.
- 🎓 Former Math Whiz – Believe it or not, in my previous life, I was a college instructor, and you will never guess the subject…Math! Yes, it’s true. I taught math for 16 years at Cardinal Stritch University before entering the world of travel.
- 🥩 Steakhouse Star – In high school, I worked at the Ponderosa Steakhouse and delivered pizzas in college to earn money. Remember the all-you-can-eat salad bar? I kept it stocked and clean.
- 🍝 Culinary Adventurer – I always try to make a dish from the country I visited when I get home. My biggest successes have been gnocchi and gazpacho. My biggest failure? Just about anything Greek – I just cannot find any Feta that compares with what I had in Greece.
- 🍫 PeanutButter M&M Fiend – I think I may be addicted to PeanutButter M&M’s. If I buy a bag of those, I will keep eating them until they are gone, all the time convincing myself that the peanut butter is a good source of protein. That sounds reasonable, doesn’t it?
- 🚶♀️ Travel Pet Peeve – My biggest travel pet peeve is when people stop in the middle of the walkway to take a picture or check their phone or even just stand there – ESPECIALLY if I am behind them and almost walk into them. How hard is it to move to the side before stopping?
- 👨👩👦 Surrounded by “Boys” – I have 2 sons, 1 dog, and 1 grand dog. My oldest son lives in Birmingham, AL with his girlfriend and their Goldendoodle, Chewie. He is an Interior Designer. My youngest son lives in the Milwaukee area and is a drafter. My dog, Joey, is the inspiration for Flat Joey whom you have seen in newsletters, blogs, and on social media.
- 💁♀️ Curly Hair Confessions – Yes, those curls are natural. The color…well, that is between me and my hairstylist. People ALWAYS ask me if my hair is naturally curly, and I have even had strangers come up to me and touch my hair without asking.
Thank you for taking a moment to get to know me a little better. Here’s to more years of creating unforgettable travel experiences together! Remember, at Platinum Travel, you’ll always “Travel Like No One Else”.
With Wanderlust,
