Hi. I’m Jeremy Sampson, the new President of Greenspot Travel. I’ll be writing a monthly post covering a variety of topics I hope will be interesting and relevant to our community of passionate travelers.
I joined GreenSpot in November, after five years at a global nonprofit called Sustainable Travel International, where my work focused on improving lives and protecting places through travel. I’m thrilled to join the GreenSpot team, where I’ll have the opportunity to continue the pursuit of my passions, albeit through a different lens.
I started my career many moons ago working for a boutique travel agency in San Francisco called Ambassador Tours. I’ve always believed in the tremendous value that travel specialists provide. It’s noisy out there, with endless blogs, booking engines, resources, and travel guides telling you what to do.But there’s nothing like talking with a knowledgeable listener on the phone who will take the time to understand your vacation needs and desires.
At GreenSpot, we pride ourselves on our destination expertise and relationships, and most importantly, on our patented Trip Design process. Using this approach, we work with all of our travelers to create unrivaled ecotourism itineraries and ensure special touches that matter most.
I’m particularly excited for the year ahead, which is a special one for GreenSpot because it’s our 10th Anniversary. How do we plan to celebrate?
- We’re going to offer new and improved ways to bring our Trip Design process to life, including a new website in the coming months.
- We’re bringing you new destinations, including Ecuador, Iceland, and the Yucatan. Stay tuned for a special announcement about our 10th Anniversary trip!
- We’re providing you new opportunities to travel authentically while giving back to the communities we serve, which is core to our sustainability commitment (more on this in future posts)
- We’ve made a promise to remain laser focused on unrivaled traveler experience at all costs. This steadfast commitment over our first 10 years, is the the very same reason we’re recommended travel specialists at Conde Nast Traveler and WendyPerrin.com, and why travelers have given us nothing but positive feedback about the trips we’ve created over the years.
I look forward to joining you on this GreenSpot journey. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime at jeremy@greenspottravel.org
