Leslie:
Travel Consultant with over 10 years of travel industry experience.
"My love for travel seems to keep growing!
It is just incredible that the more places I visit and as I interact with
persons from different cultures and ethnic backgrounds, the more I want to
see and experience. My areas of specialization are Mexico for it's luscious
colors and foods; Australia and New Zealand for big vistas and friendly
people; and Tahiti and Fiji for their romantic setting. My favorite however
is Maui in Hawaii because that is where I got married - in the chapel at the
Grand Wailea! I have revisited the Islands numerous times".
