Today we’d like to introduce you to Ana Rosado.
Hi Ana, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I am an experienced travel professional, a traveler at heart, and a passionate adventurer. Born and raised in Puerto Rico and now residing in Texas, my lifelong love for travel has driven me to explore the world’s diverse landscapes and immerse myself in different cultures. From an early age, I embraced the dream of traveling the world, discovering hidden gems, and expanding my horizons. However, it wasn’t until I married my high school sweetheart, who served in the military, that my personal journey took an exciting turn.
As a military wife, I embraced the opportunity to travel or relocate every few years, embarking on thrilling adventures across the globe. In fact, my first travel experience was quite the leap of faith. I found myself traveling solo to Germany to reunite with my husband, who was deployed at the time. Armed with only my native language, Spanish, I dove headfirst into an international journey, embracing the unknown and enjoying every moment. Since then, my travels have taken me to enchanting destinations, encompassing various U.S. states, captivating Caribbean islands, and charming European countries.
Amidst this incredible journey, I discovered that my passion for travel extended beyond my own experiences. It ignited a passion within me to help others realize their travel dreams and create lasting memories with their loved ones. Thus, driven by the desire to share the joy of travel with individuals and families alike, I ventured into the world of entrepreneurship. I am Ana at Vacations by Fairy Tale, and I am living my dream while I help my clients fulfill their own.
Alright, let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what challenges have you had to overcome?
Like any venture, running a small business has its fair share of challenges. Just as I gained confidence and clientele, the unexpected struck – the global pandemic brought travel to a standstill, causing my business to face unprecedented hardships. Nevertheless, I refused to give up. Utilizing the power of social media, I stayed connected with my clients, assuring them that brighter days were ahead and providing them with the support they needed to navigate uncertain times. While travel plans were put on hold, I kept the flame of wanderlust alive, nurturing dreams and fostering hope for a future filled with adventures.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next, you can tell us more about your business.
Vacations by Fairy Tale operates under the umbrella of Take The Vacation, an exceptional host agency. Collaborating with their remarkable team, I am blessed to work alongside like-minded individuals who share my passion for travel and dedication to exceptional customer service. My family, including our beloved dogs, form an integral part of my team, inspiring and supporting me on this beautiful travel journey.
As an independent travel agent, I take pride in providing personalized guidance and curated travel experiences that cater to the unique preferences and desires of my clients. While I refrain from confining myself to a specific destination, I specialize in crafting unforgettable itineraries for a diverse array of travel destinations. I am always eager to discover the realms of possibility to create dream vacations, whether it’s basking in the sun-kissed Caribbean, exploring Europe’s rich tapestry of history and culture, indulging in the comforts of all-inclusive resorts, setting sail on awe-inspiring cruises, exploring the breathtaking beauty of Hawaii, or immersing oneself in the magic of theme parks such as Disney and Universal.
We could end by discussing what matters most to you and why.
This is a great question! Above all, what matters most to me is the pursuit of happiness. I strive to bring joy and genuine smiles to the faces of those I serve. Each day, I set goals and dedicate myself to ensuring the utmost satisfaction of my clients. Without their trust and support, my small business would not thrive. By offering guidance, valuable tools, and a genuine commitment to their enjoyment and relaxation, I aim to transform their travel dreams into reality.
I invite you to join me on this exciting journey of exploration, where we can forge unforgettable memories, and celebrate the beauty and diversity of our world.
