A little history about myself.  I am a retired Registered Nurse.  After being in the healthcare field for over 15 years, I left my career, retiring when I was the Nurse Manager of a Home Care Agency here in NH.  At the time, I had the luxury of staying at home with my 3 wonderful children.

My oldest, Amanda, is currently on the Deans List at St. Anslem College, studying Biology and French.  She is active in sports, and played on the girls high school Varsity hockey team for 3 years.  She plays Rugby "for fun"... and is active in the college community with volunteering and especially busy enjoying acting and singing!

My middle child, Adin, is attending St. Thomas High School in NH, and plays hockey and baseball.  He volunteers locally at a police department assisting the police association with their fundraising activities.  He enjoys his 4 wheeler and has completed the safety course offered by the State of NH for those under age 16 to learn to ride and respect off road vehicles.  Adin loves snow and his snowmobile.  He is also in the process of restoring a 1982 Camaro IROC Z28!

My youngest, Allison, is attending Portsmouth Christian Academy, and graduated kindergarten in June.  She enjoys all things 6 year olds enjoy and is an active and super happy kid...she loves cruising!!  Smart kid!

My husband, Brian, is a Regional Sales Manger for Garmin Int.  He enjoys sports, and especially loves his Baltimore Orioles and Washington Redskins!  I am trying to convert him to the Red Sox and Patriots...

We have two dogs, a Newfoundland dog and a Great Dane...total opposite personalities and both total joys!
We have three kitties, an American Bobtail...an all white American shorthair and a little orange tabby that found us last November...

I began my Travel Agency back in 2005 and have taken class after class to expand my knowledge to better serve my clients.  I began working under a small host agency, then left for a large host agency. 
I decided that being under a host was not for me, that I went into business with my own business model in place and being part of a host just doesn't fit!  I have since registered Merry Meeting Travel with TRUE and OSSN to book travel on my own, thus making me truly independent...I am a Certified agent with CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) www.cruising.org I also have many certifications (see certification page).  Merry Meeting Travel, LLC is fully insured.

I have decided to specialize in more than just one area.  I work full time, and am confident that I can service the areas that I have chosen to specialize in with great skill!  I am continually taking classes and learning more to educate myself...

I have a passion for travel and a passion for helping others enjoy their travel as much as I do...
