Midweek Interview with Bianca Orsola Rose, Sales Manager VIC/TAS, Creative Holidays

Midweek Interview with Bianca Orsola Rose, Sales Manager VIC/TAS, Creative Holidays
By admin


The challenge for the industry is…. The internet.

The things I like about my job are…. Being on the road, talking travel and selling great products.

And the frustrations…. Being on the road with drivers that I would say usually use public transport but seem to pull out their car when it is raining – they really have no idea how to drive.

If I didn’t work in travel I would be a…. Fashion Buyer – I would still be able to travel as part of my job and the bonus would be shopping with someone else’s money.

Qantas or Virgin? I will save a war and say both!

My proudest moment was…. When I worked in conference and events and seeing a project I worked hard on for 300+ attendees come together and be a huge success.

The naughtiest thing I ever did was…..You need me to narrow that down to just one?

I try to relax by… Watching bad reality TV like any of The Real Housewives franchise (OC, Beverley Hills, Vancouver etc)…looking forward to the Melbourne one currently in production!

The last time I feared for my life…. Was last year at Disney California Adventure Park on the Tower of Terror.  Side note, while on the ride there was an earthquake!

If I can, I always try to avoid… Queues.

I really wish I had… A personal hair and make-up artist with me at all times.

The best advice I’ve ever received was… When I was a teen my friend’s Mum was a programmer. She told me that when computers are frustrating you should always read the screen! It will always tell you what you can and can’t do. I’ve found it’s true!

I don’t understand why… People don’t stand behind the yellow line at the baggage carousel – then everyone can see the bags coming!

My greatest weakness is…. Shoes.

And my greatest strength…. My smile.

If I was prime minister I would… Be pretty impressed with myself!

If I won $1 million on the lottery I would…. Travel and buy shoes.

If I could be someone else for one day I would be… Hello Kitty.

I’ve always wanted to travel to…. There is a long list but at the top would be New York at the moment.

My favourite holiday was… Too hard to choose just one, but I will have to go with my South Africa/Mauritius combo and visiting family in Milan – yes the shopping was amazing!
