This week's show is all about sunny Fort Lauderdale, Florida where we attended IPW 2026 last week — one of the Travel industry’s premier international marketplaces, hosted by Brand USA and the US Travel Association. One of the conversations we had was with Visit Lauderdale sharing all the fun things Ft Lauderdale has to offer. I also had a sit down with Brand USA, talking about traveling to the US, visitation numbers and the plan going forward.

My travel knowledge mostly comes from working in the cruise line industry for 3 years. That experience has taken me to both coastlines of North America, Alaska and Hawaii to Mexico and the Caribbean and Central and South America. The Informed Traveler is all about making that experience more enjoyable.
As Mark Twain once said, “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” I hope the Informed Traveler assists you in your explorations, dreams and discoveries of the world.
