Hello Global Traveler blog readers!
Today marks my fourteenth day as part of the Global Traveler team. So far, each day has had something new to offer — learning different software, meeting new people and listening to the company back story. Everyone has been helpful and friendly. My first few days, I felt like a tourist, adapting to my surroundings and observing the locals. Now, I feel more comfortable and excited to explore the destination.
A little bit more about me: I have lived in Bucks County my whole life, except for the time I spent at college, Fordham University in New York. I love to laugh and recently started taking improv classes at the Philly Improv Theater. If you couldn’t tell from the lack of vowels in my last name, I am Polish.
I’m very excited to be beginning my adventure with Global Traveler!
— Katie Skrzek, advertising and editorial coordinator
