🤩 I’m SO stoked to announce that I received the GSTC Professional Certificate in Sustainable Tourism 🌟

🌿 This certificate is the capstone to a wonderfully enriching experience training with other sustainable tourism professionals at the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) conference in Sevilla December 2022. I’m happy that I was able to confirm what I’ve learned in the process, in large part thanks to our kickass trainers Ramkumar and Ignacio 🙌

Thank you CB Ramkumar and Ignacio de las Cuevas for the engaging training sessions and evening tapas, and congrats to Randy and team for hosting such a great event. This week has deepened my understanding of how to apply sustainable global standards to our industry, and I loved learning about the multitude of initiatives destinations and organisations are carrying out in their corners of the world 🥹🌍

December 2022 was an uncharacteristically rainy time in Seville 🌧️ But the weather couldn’t put a damper on the warmth and enthusiasm of everyone I met. I’m so grateful to have heard your stories, both professional and personal, and know you have a friend for life.

With this certificate under my belt, I’m excited to continue carrying on the work of greening our industry with more knowledge and vigour 🍀
