🎁 The Greatest Gift You Can Give Yourself

Posted on: December 14, 2021 at 3:30 PM

Holidays are a time to rejoice and reflect, and this year was unlike any other, especially in the world of travel. It was unpredictable in so many ways, but what it taught us is that as travel advisors, our expertise and advocacy for our clients make the work that we do, indispensable.

Although we’ve seen a new normal in the way we travel and hope for brighter days ahead with a robust return to travel, we know that it is just a matter of time and that maybe, the worst is behind us. Travel is in our blood, and people are ready to explore once again.

No one knows quite like CP Travel Agents why this job is one of the best in the world, and we asked them, to tell us what the greatest gift being a travel agent has given them. We hope when you read their heartfelt words, you recognize in yourself also why you do it, or are considering doing it.
