Midweek Interview with Bunnik Tours’ Walter Delorie

For this interview, we took Walter Delorie, NSW and ACT Business Development Manager for Bunnik Tours, by the hand. That is, until he told us to let go.

The challenge for the industry is…

The high turnover of consultants and low earning margins.

The things I like about my job…

Everything, especially working for a company that is passionate about the travel industry.

And the frustrations are…

Companies that continually feel discounting is the saviour of their business.

If I didn’t work in travel I would be…

The last time I feared for my life was…

On a few occasions when I was young and foolish.

If I can, I always try to avoid…

Negative people.

I really wish I had…

Enough money to travel full time.

The best advice I’ve ever received was…

Always be polite and truthful.

I don’t understand why people…

I have no opinion – everyone has a choice to be who they want.

My greatest weakness is…

Spending money.

And my greatest strength is…

Listening.

If I won a $1 million lottery (aside from travelling), I would…

Invest it.

If I was prime minister I would…

Make a lot of changes.
