We had the good fortune of connecting with Vonnie Gill and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Vonnie, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
The thought process behind starting my own business was needing something low budget to start up, still being able to help people, and have a flexible schedule. I love to travel and wanted to help bring that passion to others.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I became a travel agent after getting injured at work, the pandemic, and a move across the country. My life changed and I needed something flexible, and something that still felt rewarding. It wasn’t easy and I still have hard days because I’m currently building up my clients. Nonetheless, it’s amazing! I get to help people take once in a lifetime trips, and make memories.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Day 1 : I would start the first night off with drinks and food at a restaurant called kindling. Day 2:We’d then do the tourist musts, river walk, Alamo, etc..

Day 3:Then we would check out Austin, do a boat tour on lady bird lake, eat at local non chair restaurants while in Austin.

Day 4: I’d take her to the enchanted rock for a sunset hike because the views are amazing.

Day 5: first stop Buc-ee’s to get lunch and drink because we’re floating the river in New Braunfels

Day 6-7: Finally we’d finish the week at Port Aransas. We’d get local seafood, hangout on the beach.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I’d like to give a shout-out to my wife. Thanks for always supporting me and pushing me to do better.
