Besides the northern lights and fjords, Norway offers a delectable selection of mouth-watering foods - foods that you probably have not tried before. Because Norweigans love adventure, food is no exception. For example, every residential Norwegian forages, and you can do the same as well on your Norway holiday. That is why I often suggest that travelers visiting Norway go on a foraging tour in August or September. That is when the hedgerows are in full bloom and prized porcini mushrooms can be easily found.  However, never pick mushrooms without a guide to help. That is why a foraging tour is a must-do activity. You can also pick dew-sparkling amber berries, cloudberries, and lingonberries in places  such as Hardangervidda and Rondane. Also, Husmanskost is a hearty and inviting lunch you will love - open sandwiches that feature sourdough or rye bread, topped with charcuterie, veggies, or seafood. You can savor the cuisine in places, such as the Havariet Bistro in Oslofjord.  Classic dinner dishes include unique and succulent foods, such as elk meatballs and reindeer stew, also called finnbiff. Enjoy these evening staples in places, such as the Elgustua Guesthouse in East Norway. When you eat that type of delicious food, you will need to find ways to work off the calories, and Norway has plenty of activities in which you can take part. One of the popular activities of the country, naturally, is skiing.  The word, "ski," itself comes from the Old Norse language. Many Norweigans assert that they had skis on their feet when they were born. Therefore, if you want to ski, you will find Norway to be a skiers paradise. You can hit the powder in winter or ski down a glacier during the summer. An exciting adventure always waits in this cold yet warm Scandinavian country. I would like to serve as your travel agent planner for Norway, as I know you will love your trip, regardless of when you choose to travel. Give me a call so we can go over all the exciting details now!

Thailand Travel Agent Professional

Thailand is a magical country with breathtaking scenery, friendly locals and delicious food. It’s not surprising that it continues to attract an ever-increasing number of tourists each year. Its tropical climate, beaches and rainforests are just some of its natural wonders which continue to make Thailand an appealing holiday destination. That is why I love representing Thailand as a travel agent professional. I love making people’s travel dreams come true. Thailand is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Asia and with good reason. It’s home to an abundance of natural beauty, fascinating culture and cuisine, and, again, to some of the friendliest people you could ever meet.  The country sees a high volume of tourists throughout the year, but it still remains an extremely hot destination from June to September. So, I often plan travel to the country when the weather is more temperate, or when the activities allow travelers to cool off from the humidity and  heat. The Weather in Thailand The weather in Thailand is tropical year round. Thailand’s coastal areas enjoy warm temperatures throughout the year and usually remain above 70°F even during the winter months. In contrast, the mainland experiences more extreme weather conditions.  Thailand’s rainy season usually lasts from May to October, but it varies by location. During this time, it’s common to see a lot of rain, especially in the southern parts of the country. Therefore, I can plan a trip for you that takes the weather into account, so you can enjoy your visit - whenever you plan to go. The Culture Shock Visiting Thailand can be an eye-opening experience. The country welcomes millions of tourists each year, but Thailand has a very different culture from what we are used to in the United States. Nevertheless, that is what makes visiting Thailand a unique and wonderful experience. It allows you to see the world from another perspective. Visit the Floating Market, attend a Muay Thai fight, or learn how to use chopsticks from a Thai chef. These are just some of the many activities that make for an exciting trip. Escorted Tours in Thailand I frequently suggest taking an escorted tour if you’ve never visited Thailand. These tours are designed to make your trip easy, convenient, and enjoyable. There are many escorted tours in Thailand, so I can find one that is ideal for you. Tours are also designed for different durations, so you can choose one that matches your schedule and travel preferences. Why Now is a Good Time to See Thailand There are many reasons why now is a good time to visit Thailand. Here are some of them: (1) Thailand is a top honeymoon destination. (2) The value of the Thai Baht against the US dollar has remained relatively stable in recent years. This makes the country more affordable for American tourists. (3) Thailand, together with its neighbors in Southeast Asia, is experiencing a tourism boom. There are more people visiting the region than ever before. The country is also working on new attractions and events to attract even more tourists. Top Places to visit in Thailand
