International hospitality is much more a part of the world’s playground ranging from B&Bs to international hotel and restaurant groups. Hybrids of “boutique” hotels tailored to the domestic & international businesses, and require staff who are of A+ caliber in training and personableness. HTMi (Hotel & Tourism Management Institute). Nestled in the Swiss Alps and ski slpes of Soerenberg, there could not be a more idyllic setting to pursue a diploma or certificate in hotel & tourism. The institute had more happy faces than I could count, and the foods was superb. The use of Apple computer technology including ipods made is “user friendly” for international and US students. As an agent, I am happy to tell you more about this facility and how to connect with them should you be interested in learning more about this tremendous opportunity. Face it. The world is shrinking, and you’re not getting any younger. Pursue your dreams, and let us help you get there!

An amazing opportunity to make connections in both Switzerland and Germany. I presented in Locarno and we made trips to see hospitality and culinary arts schools. In Berlin the focus is in cultural and language opportunities, and plenty of adventure & exchange programs. I am now accepted as an agent for another year.

Thanks to staff at New LifeStyles in making this visit happen. I enjoyed meeting staff and clients within the program. A licensed facility, it’s ability to work with the over 18 year old client who demonstrates college bound desire and the interest in personal growth. What I particularly found enlightening was the staff’s ability to work collaboratively to make individual clients’ futures happen. Plus, the town of Winchester is unique and easy to to maneuver for young adult clients with a New LifeStyles espresso shop in the making. Good show, good stuff.

It’s great to meet new program staff coming into town from the wilderness. Two new therapists caught our attention: Rachael Schneider and Derrick Cook. Rachel comes from a field staff perspective in providing youth in treatment what they can do to change themselves, and Derrick has a history in working in the industry at Wilderness Quest in working with those in recovery. Thanks to Shayne Gallagher for coming our way!
