The Erica James Travel Show

I’ll be talking about my first Baecation. For those who don’t know, I’ve been a travel agent for about 17 years, and I’ve only travelled solo, with other travel agents, or with my friends. This time, I took my first Baecation, and I have some tips for those of you considering taking your own first Baecation.  Support the show Contact Erica James Follow me and tag me on Instagram at @EJtheTravelDiva Tweet me at @EJtheTravelDiva Follow me on TikTok at @EJtheTravelDiva Join my Podcast Community here

None of them have ever flown out of the US or stayed at an all-inclusive resort, and today we are going to get her opinions on all-inclusive resorts versus cruising, and some tips and tricks for when you want to book your all-inclusive resort vacation.

In episode 88, I talked about how you can minimize your chances of your luggage getting lost or delayed. In today’s episode, I will be talking about the things that you can do if your luggage either doesn’t arrive at your destination or arrives a few days later. This happened to one of us in our group when we travelled to Riu Baja California, and it is not the way you want to be starting your vacation.

I took some time off, and I really felt like I needed to address this. Many people told me not to bring attention to my hiatus and to just continue releasing episodes from where I left off, but things have happened in the last few months and I feel that I need to talk about how travel has helped me get back to where I want to be.

For the past few episodes, we’ve dedicated them to specific niches of travel, and today, we’re getting into Music Festival Travel. Everybody loves music. If you love music AND travel, you may want to merge the two, and music festival travel is the perfect way to do that. Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/ejthetraveldiva)

Do you remember when we would travel somewhere and we would always get the question, “business or pleasure?” When I first graduated college, I would travel for my first job, and that was business travel. We didn’t have social media, so no one was taking advantage of all the opportunities that we now know exist. If I knew about bleisure travel, believe me, I would’ve been living my best travel life a long time ago. Today, if I get asked the question, “business or pleasure?”, I’m saying both business AND pleasure, which is what we’re going to talk about today, and it’s known as Bleisure Travel.
