Profile Information
- Do you have your own website, blog, forum or social network?
- http://pearltravelguides.com
- what is your website/blog/forum/social network for?
- To collectively market the network of destination guides that I am developing in Brazil. A new kind of travel guide designed for responsible independent tourists that wish to discover the real Brazil. With inspiring themed itineraries that have been co-developed with local tour operators according to our guidelines and checklists.
- Is there is another relevant website connected to your work you'd like featured please list it here
- http://recife.pearltravelguides.com
- What's this website for?
- This is the first of our online guides. Twenty others are currently being developed or in the plans.
- Anything else? What's your story? Give us a bit of background about yourself (if you like).
- I am an English guy with a marketing background, based in Brazil for over five years now. I am using my love of Brazil and skills to transform the tourism industry here so that it may grow in a sustainable way and benefits all stakeholders, especially the poor communities that desperately need the benefits of a new approach to tourism.
