Travel Advisor: Marc Carlson

Favorite destination? The next one!

Why is that your favorite destination? Because this world is vast and there is so much to learn, experience, taste, and feel. Very often the only way to learn about it all is to experience it.

What destination is on your bucket list? Japan, New Zealand, Iceland

Why is that destination on your bucket list? Japan is a beautiful set of islands that is so very different from our American culture. It is a very clean area, with its inhabitants who are very polite and friendly. It is full of natural beautiful landscapes, many UNESCO sites, unique castles, and advanced technology. When I see photos of Mt. Fuji and the Cherry Blossoms, I know the in person view is something that will live with you forever. As you can tell I can go on about it.  New Zealand is where they filmed Lord of the Rings and that film is so cinematically beautiful.  Iceland since it is close and you can go there any time of year.

What destinations have you visited? Bermuda, Canada, Most of the USA, All over the Caribbean and Switzerland

Why should someone book their vacation with you? People should book with me because I am not selling vacations, I am selling memories. Usually when you think back to a vacation, it is a very happy memory. I want to make sure that your trip is one to remember with the least amount of stress possible, because we all know sometimes making big plans can be stressful.
