A week in Vegas…but probably not the kind you’re imagining 😉 I just wrapped up an incredible week at Virtuoso Travel Week, one of the world’s premier gatherings for luxury travel. Virtuoso is a global network of the best hotels, resorts, cruise lines, tour operators, and destination partners around the world—and being part of this community gives me access to relationships, resources, and experiences that directly benefit my clients. My days were packed with back-to-back meetings, events, conversations, property updates, destination deep dives, and time spent connecting face-to-face with the partners who help bring my clients’ trips to life. Because great travel planning goes far beyond choosing a beautiful hotel or putting together an itinerary.
It’s knowing who to call when my clients need something. It’s having relationships with the people on the ground who can help me create special experiences, add those little extra touches, and support my travelers while they’re away. It’s learning about new hotels before they open, discovering experiences I may not find online, and continually expanding my knowledge so I can give my clients the very best recommendations.
Every meeting I take, every relationship I build, and every bit of knowledge I bring home helps me become a better advisor and provide an even higher level of service to my clients.
And beyond all of the meetings and events, one of the absolute best parts of the week was getting to spend time with my Brownell community. I am beyond thankful to be surrounded by such an incredible, supportive group of people who genuinely want to see one another learn, grow, and succeed. There is something so special about being part of a community that shares knowledge, celebrates each other’s wins, and is always willing to lend support. I’m incredibly grateful to call Brownell home 🤍❤️ I’m home inspired, grateful, full of new ideas, and even more excited about what I can create for my clients next.
You can Google a basic vacation…but you can’t Google relationships and that makes all the difference ✨
