What sparked your interest to go into the travel industry?

I use to travel with my father who was in the transportation business during school holidays to Johannesburg to visit my grandmother, who was a domestic worker at the time. The fascination of looking at trees, mountains and landscape blew me away. The feeling warmed my soul and sparked my curiosity and passion of traveling.
