Traveling has this particular effect on us; the more we travel, we realize how much we didn't see, how much we won't see, and how much we want to see of the world. 


Joining me today is Monica Irauzqui, an expert in the travel industry and Vice President of Yampu Tours, a company that helps people discover the world since 1998. She educates us about the possibilities of traveling during the pandemic and how it affected her business and the industry. She shares some valuable tips about starting planning 2021 trips and adventures, the different alternatives for those who prefer to stay in the US and still travel, and the difference having a travel operator can make when we find ourselves in trouble far from home.
