Sarika Tripp 
sarika@cruiseworld.mb.ca
I first visited a travel agency when I was 10 years old. The agency had fun decor with faux palm trees and photos of beautiful locations around the world. The travel agent was so excited for us to see Hawaii, her enthusiasm was contagious. I said to my mother when we left that I want her job when I grow up, and now here I am celebrating a 20 year career in travel.
I started out as a solo traveler. I introduced myself to travel slowly, by taking short trips to the USA. Weekend getaways to Las Vegas, California & Arizona evolved when I started my family. Disney and Universal Studios became the forefront holiday for my children until they were older, when our travel adventures evolved again into all inclusive stays throughout the Caribbean.
Over the years I've been fortunate to see a world few will ever see. I've cruised the Caribbean on a yacht and ocean liners. I've been pampered with fine dining, white glove service, butlers and renowned spas. I've even camped in the rain on a non-active volcano and rubber tube floated through spectacular open canals on a Hawaiian Island. Making memories is my driving force, encouraging my future exploration of travel.
I thrive on inspiring others to travel, to help you discover other cultures and make lasting memories of your own
