My favorite travel memory
I studied abroad for three weeks in Rome, Italy in 1986. We visited amazing sites such as Florence, Tivoli, Ostia Antica, Pompeii, Circus Maximus, Roman Forum, Pantheon, Vatican, Colosseum, and the Catacombs. While all of theses experiences were very memorable, the highlight of the trip was attending a Papal audience in the square of St. Peter’s Basilica and meeting and shaking hands with Pope John Paul II, as he exited the square.
My favorite movie character
My favorite movie character would have to be Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee in the movie A Few Good Men (played by Tom Cruise). I think it was a brilliant movie based on a young, inexperienced Naval lawyer who rose to the occasion by challenging Colonel Nathan Jessup (played by Jack Nicholson) in a heated courtroom scene, despite what seemed like insurmountable odds against him and the two Marines for whom he was fighting.
My favorite book
My favorite book dates back to my teenage years when my dad gave me the autobiography of the former Cleveland Indians baseball player named Andre Thorton called Triumph Born of Tragedy. It is an inspirational book that discusses how his faith and attitude helped shape him after the loss of his wife and child in a tragic car accident.

Moments that Matter …
The personal touches that BRT provides. Your company gets to know the people they work with. I have never felt like a "number" with BRT.

I appreciated the flexibility Bob Rogers showed us with the billing and various payments we had to make. We thought we were adding more and ended up not but you were great about giving us extra time to work out what we needed to on our end.

BRT hands down has been the absolute best travel company I have worked with in my 18 years in education. My interactions with BRT have always been so much more than just traveling from one destination to another...the focus has always been on people and providing them with experiences of a lifetime.
