Check out “bleisure travel” — business travel with time for leisure — and hear from a seasoned traveler and blogger.

Whether it’s a few days or a longer multistop trip, business travel is now the reality for many people. Try making your next work trip more enjoyable as a “bleisure traveler.” Add a day or two to explore your destination and its unique culture — you may also discover something about yourself.

----more----Bleisure travel is a part of life for the podcast team: Jason frequently visits family in South Africa, and Wayne and guest co-host Courtney have bleisured together in sunny Florida.

Guest co-host Courtney Tyler brings 12 years of experience at WV to her playful banter with Wayne. She’s known Founder and Chief Visionary Officer Wayne Nugent since she started at the company, and was even stuck with him once in an elevator!

With Wayne’s “More Than a Travel Tip … Tip,” Jason’s social beat, and appearances by Blanca Balli and WorldVentures Foundation Executive Director Gwyneth Lloyd, you can expect an extremely bleisurable time!
