This is an easy one for me. Right after college, I took a backpack trip and traveled around the world for a year. Upon returning to my native San Francisco, I had no idea what I would do to make a living. Travel, for me, was an eye opener. Travel expanded my mind, and I came up with an idea. I started the first travel agency in the U.S. specializing in discounted around-the-world airfares.
When I became a boss and owner of my own travel agency, I always sought to hire world travelers. After all, who can better sell around-the-world airfares than the people who recently experienced what, for many, was a trip of lifetime? I always tried to take it one step further, so I sought out world travelers of all ethnicities, figuring that people who speak a second language or come from another culture were my most ideal employees and would make excellent sellers of travel.
