I'm different from the corporate road warriors here - I travel because it's my business. I own a tour company and escort my tours, which takes me to Italy about 6 times a year. I also work for other companies as a freelance tour director, which is mainly domestic U.S. and Canadian travel - they're motorcoach tours, but sometimes I have to fly to get there. So I don't log as many air miles as the corporate people, but I love what I do - when my friends are sitting at their desks, I'm on a tram at the bottom of Yosemite or in a winery in Tuscany or on a boat in New Hampshire... and being paid to do it.
