Christina gathered up her courage, bought a fleet of vans, and started a business doing wine tours in the Northern Georgia Mountains. She explains how she made the transition, the challenges she faced, and the brand she has built over the last few years.

TRO Signal seeks to explore the “inner” workings of travel professionals. TRO Signal will be exploring the more elusive, emotional and psychological aspects of being a travel advisor.  Our topics are all about the experience or travel consulting: sometimes rewarding, sometimes humbling, and all of the trials, vicissitudes, and ups and downs, that are a part of the job. We are going to draw upon the wisdom of not only experts in the travel industry, but also from teachers and creative people outside our industry.
