Love to travel, to discover the world, to travel free & untroubled & still be informed like an insider! For Travelers, By Travelers!

@Traveldudes: Hi Stephanie, thanks for being my
interview partner. First, let us explain what we are doing. It's simple! We are having a Twitterview… the twitter way. Short & informative! To be a part of it, just follow us or follow/search for "#Q&A" (Question & Answer). Easy as that.

Let's begin! You are a travel agent. Do you have any specific region/destination you focus on?

@TravelDesigned: Yes… I've been a travel agent for over 16 years. I plan to travel all over the world but I specialize in the Caribbean and Mexico.

@Traveldudes: So these are the destinations you know best. When have you been there last?

@TravelDesigned: Yes, because I live in the Midwest of the US that is where most people here want to travel. I was in the Riviera Maya in October & Los Cabos in November.

@Traveldudes: What is the reason that most people choose to go there?

@TravelDesigned: It is cold & snowy here in the winter and it is not far to travel & it is relatively inexpensive

@Traveldudes: These are very good reasons! So what exactly are your services… in Twitter length?

@TravelDesigned: LOL! I arrange air, hotel, transfers -pre/post hotel with parking & insurance. Tours & Cruises too! I just don't do too much with just airline tickets. I arrange travel packages.The whole Enchilada!

@Traveldudes: So it's pretty much what a travel agent does & more. Do you have an office, where people visit you?

@TravelDesigned: My office is in my home & meet people here, I also make appointments in their homes & treat to drinks too.

@Traveldudes: Sounds gemütlich (cozy). But you are also very active on twitter & have your own website http://su.pr/1E915l

@Traveldudes: I see there is a tab called #MexMonday. Tell us more about it. http://su.pr/7YomFb

@TravelDesigned: Travel was really slow last year due to the US economy then with H1N1 No one would go and it really had a bad effect MX economy. Mexico was the #1 destination – so I decided to tweet all the great deals to Mexico hopefully build biz & reputation as a reliable source. You can find the whole story on the #MexMonday homepage http://su.pr/7YomFb We also have a weekly photo contest & sometimes blog contest too.

@Traveldudes: Wow… you should call yourself a Mexican tourist office…

So I'm sure you've got a special insider tip for us?

@TravelDesigned: You say that.. in a Mexico newspaper/blog #MexMonday was referred to as an unofficial ambassador. LOL
People in Mexico are very kind & many enjoy working in hospitality industry. I don't know where you can get better service than in Mexico. The hotels are gorgeous, the food is very good & not usually spicy — though some is…
There's lots of fresh seafood & TEQUILA TOO

) There are many historical sites as well as soft adventure and lots of beautiful nature to see in & out of the water. I find the culture and people fascinating!! For ideas on where to travel, what to see & do in Mexico follow us on #MexMonday & www.visitmexico.com/wb2

@Traveldudes: Great! & here you'll find some #travel tips
