This week brought a fun surprise—my Instagram reel was featured in a brand-new virtual training hosted by ASTA (the American Society of Travel Advisors), focused entirely on expedition cruising.
This was the first time ASTA—America’s much larger counterpart to ACTA here in Canada—offered a dedicated training on expedition travel, bringing together over 500 travel advisors, mostly from across the U.S. (and yes, one or two of us proud Canadians who live and breathe expedition cruising—ahem).
So, I was truly honoured when ASTA’s Senior Vice President of Marketing featured my reel and storytelling style as an example of how advisors can bring travel to life through digital content. 🎥🐧
The reel they showcased? A peek into my Antarctica expedition—penguins, zodiacs, surreal icebergs, and all the wonder that makes expedition cruising unforgettable.

It’s exciting to see the industry recognizing the power of storytelling, and I’m thrilled to keep inspiring future adventures—both for clients and fellow advisors.
Thinking about your own reel-worthy expedition? Let’s talk.
