‘Travel is one of the most rewarding careers’
JULIA LO BUE-SAID is chief GZGEWVKXG QH 6JG #FXCPVCIG Travel Partnership, which represents travel agents and travel management companies “My career in travel began after I studied travel and tourism at the College for Distributive Trades in London. “When I was growing up, we
couldn’t afford to take holidays until my parents’ business took off when I was a teenager. As soon as I began to travel though, it quickly became my passion. º7hili ÜoÀkin} in mÞ wÀÃÌ
retail travel job, I took on as much training as I could.
“Since starting at Advantage in 1995, I’ve worked my way up through the company, and I’m now proud to be leading the business. “Through my parents, I learnt that passion and dedication is required to achieve success. I see these qualities every day with the travel agents we work with at Advantage.”
