If you think you feel an attractive pull towards the different places in the world and your passion to want to visit them and tell other people about it is strong, then being a travel agent is the career for you. You will get to know about many places around the world and since it is a passion, you will be able to serve your clients in the best way possible. You serve them by helping them pick the best travel packages and marketing the new deals from different travel companies along the way. This way a travel agent also becomes a sort of sales person, getting commission for the number of sales they make.
