Our wandering scribe managed to file this story in between luaus from the TravelManager’s annual conference in Hawaii

We’ve been applauding TravelManagers’ amazing new initiative from our desk all morning. Which is a departure from our normal Monday routine of sleeping on it.

Sipping mai tais, crashing wedding photos AND paying for strangers laundry? Sounds eerily similar to the end results of a Travel Weekly staff party.

In this wrap, you can check out alllll the fun things agents have been doing lately. And speaking of checking out, we’ll be at the pub across the road if you need anything else.

Attention, all travel agents! We’ve got the opportunity of a lifetime for you. Come October, you could be on a mega-famil in Abu Dhabi.

We chatted with Michael Londregan about why travel is not all about the destination. And to alleviate our severe jealousy because we’re not living it up at Virtuoso’s Travel Week in Vegas right now.

And this weeks Travel Counsellor profile is on… Clare Hardie! Clare shows us around her countryside farm, while we dream of being able to work anywhere except for the office.

To be honest, the only thing stopping us from working from home every day is the office dog. He needs our pats as much as we need his cuddles.

We’re all packed and ready for TravelManagers annual conference in Hawaii! Here’s what to expect this year.

We are SO JEALOUS of all these travel companies living it up at Travel Week in sunny Vegas. We’re going to have to distract ourselves by eating cake for lunch again.

Get amongst G Adventure’s new agent ‘bible’ and you could win a spot on one of their legendary famils! Sign us the heck up.

Our friends over at Intrepid celebrated World Elephant Day by shedding light on the cruel practices behind elephant riding.
