How did I get here?  About Dave Rosenthal

The Before: Travel Adviser from a telecom/tech guy...how did that happen?  After finishing graduate school, I worked in marketing research and high-end account management in the telecom industry.  I traveled a lot - a whole lot - and experienced many places.  One month without  travel and I was ready to plan another trip.  For large sales meetings, we had complete itineraries planned out for us.  We arrived on location and had many activities ready for us to experience.  One of the best parts of my corporate travel experience was my own trip planning and the subsequent anticipation.

The Turning Point: The telecom industry imploded in 2002, which meant I was out of a job!  I accepted a couple of lower-level sales positions  just to remain in the workforce.  These positions were not suitable for my past skills and talents.  I just showed up at these jobs and quit each within one year of starting. During this period, one of the things I enjoyed best was planning leisure trips.

The Worldview - about Dave Rosenthal, the Who: I have a passion for meeting new people at the very core of my being.  I truly believe that there is nothing like meeting new people in different places and countries to learn about their culture.  Buying a shirt at a little souvenir store in Canada involves interactions and questions.  I think these little tidbits can really add up and make a difference in one’s worldview.  After each little interaction, I get a fresh perspective on someone else’s world.
