    In 2014 I created my UA-cam account "Tourist to Local" as a way to document my study abroad adventure in Chile. Over 6 years later, Tourist to Local has turned into a travel community on UA-cam that is focused on sharing our favorite travel memories. Along with my husband, Martín from Bitácora de Viajero, we make bilingual videos providing tips and guides to create memorable and unique vacations. Travel is attainable, and our goal is to show you how you can travel too, whether it's for a weekend or a year!

    "Why was I not an engineer" GIRL!! I can't tell you how many times I say this when looking through job listings hahah! I hope I can find a remote job someday soon ☺️ thanks for sharing this! Websites are so great to have and make you look so much more professional, love that! Also... Couldn't agree more about LinkedIn. It's always seemed so old to me and feel like the networking is like adding friends on Facebook😂

    Hello guys I am here to figure out what it’s my dream job. So I have always love and been interested in languages since very little I would admire all the polyglots on TV and be so amazed by name and wanting to be like them. My first language to learn was English. After that like starting 8th grade I started to be more interesting on languages and I started learning more I had my path more clear and starting doing things to achieve my goal. I had decided I was going to become a polyglot and speak 10 languages. Of course in high school you start being ask what you want to do when you grow up I haven’t really have it clear what I want to do, but since then I have always know I want to do something with languages. Translating or interpreting could be an option I really like those too. Even though translating written takes a lot of work but that’s basically what the job is you have to do work! And use all your strength and knowledge to translate something, even if it takes a lot because that is your job! And that’s why you are getting pay, so I am okay with that translating could be an option. I would like to study that and learn translating techniques and all of that knowledge that we might not have access to without a program. Now the topic I would like to translate could be anything for a company, even though again translating hard words in an academic level it’s challenging, and I have to learn and work with multiple languages, I am not so excited about that, because I would really want to work with most of that languages I speak if it’s possible. Another thing I would like to work with besides languages that really goes along that actually is tourism, I really like learning about other countries, cultures. I am very passionate about that I learn things like that everyday by myself. So I don’t know exactly what I want to do but work with tourism probably for the embassy even though I still don’t know exactly what they do. Probably promote my countries culture to the foreign. Communicate with them. International relationships with my country etc. I hope you guys understand me. Another thing which combines another one of my passions which is lower than languages, countries but it’s still one of my passions❤️ and something I would like to do, for a living or if I can’t as a hobby everyday because I just love it some much which is video making. Since little it was so annoying for my mom that I would record EVERYTHING make videos of my family kind of vlogs even before vlogs where a thing before UA-cam I think so. I would fill all the memories of all my phones with videos of my garden, pets etc. It was very annoying for my mom because I was always recording. I grew up UA-cam and vlogging became a thing I wanted to do that. I eventually did in my early teenager years (I’m still a teen) I started making videos for channels that I don’t remember the password to😂 for this channel other videos that are save in my phone. Okay so since then I started making videos. Recording, editing, all the magic of video making, then later I move on to other platforms and I have made a few videos I am proud of, editing takes time, and skill even tho I am nowhere near to be the best of good. I am content of my work and I want to keep learning and do things to be better. I would also liked to go to a film school just to learn more about filmmaking. So the job where I could combine my love for video making, languages, tourism would be with a job similar to her. That would be a dream, but I see it very hard and away from me I don’t feel good enough for that. I see other UA-camrs that do what she does and I love it! But I feel not me, I am not interested or talented enough for that. But it could be a possibility. I just want to learn more about this and see what I really want to do really all of this could be really great options and I want to learn more. Lastly the craziest dream job is to be a filmmaker which is the most far away dream I have, I feel that whatever I end up doing I would still do video making on the side maybe go to a school for that later in my life and learn, practice and get the skills to someday do something on the film world. Which is really hard but some dream I have to do maybe after I’m 30 I just want to have good skills to be good at what I want to do.

    Hello I had a question, question is is how do you like doing work from remote a currently working lawn Forssman here in Tucson Arizona and I’m looking to transfer my career into possibly doing a trip travel agent type job I do want to work from home and have more time at home I have hard skills in Microsoft word Microsoft excel Microsoft spreadsheets Microsoft office in general I’m also very adept at writing and I have really great interpersonal communication skills when it comes to talking to people and I’m able to talk to very diverse set of people while also being very articulate in the way I talk and my choice of words. But I am curious to know how hard it is to actually with no experience and not really knowing what you’re doing to get hired by a company in the travel industry for being a travel agent I do wish to travel and I have a passion for seeing different parts of the world and it’s one of my goals to be more financially and less tied down and be more independent as an individual but I was wondering what your take on it is is there something I should do part time or pursue as a full-time job is it something that with no experience I can just get into

    • @TouristtoLocal
      @TouristtoLocal  3 роки тому +3

      I was lucky and got hired by a start up that taught me everything I needed to know. I'd be cautious if any company told me I needed to pay something to be hired though. Make sure you research the company first! I believe companies like AMEX teach their agents everything they need to know, and there is no expectation you'd need to pay anything. That might be a good company to look into.
