Last September, I became certified as an International Tour Manager. After numerous resumes sent, I finally got a chance with Travel Dream West. Their "Native Trails" trip (15 days in Arizon and New Mexico with a focus on Native American cultures) would be my training tour. The catch was that it was in German! I had lived in Germany for 2.5 years way back in the mid-90s, so this was going to be quite the challenge.
