Are You Already Doing the Work of a Travel Agent?

Do you love to travel?
Well, then you might already be doing the work of a RTA(Referring Travel Agent). Traveling to new places and then telling your friends about it when you get home is a big part of being a travel agent. Word of mouth advertising is essential to the travel industry and as RTA’s.
Taking pictures and showing them to your friends, or talking about your destination over coffee when you return is advertising for where ever you just returned from. Yep, and that is a big part of what a RTA has to do: refer friends and family to the destinations that they know about.
When I return from a trip is just basic human nature to ask about my trip(and live a little vicariously). And when anyone wants to know the details of my Bahamas trip; that is the advertising for the Bahamas and my travel website, IdesTravel.com.
The website looks good. I find myself looking at the cruises, but tell me, do I need a passport to cruise out of Miami to the Bahamas?
