Presentation

Our guest presenter will be noted travel guide publisher, Karen Brown.
Karen has seventeen titles in print including five North American titles, twelve European titles, and a new guide to Mexico

Her presentation is titled Places and Personalities.
She says, “Places and Personalities is an approximate thirty minute slide presentation that features stories based on personal experiences while researching the Karen Brown guides. You will be introduced through stories to some of the people and places that have enriched our lives. Some of the stories are touching, some colorful and many romantic… but they all serve to add enlightenment as to why we select the places we do.”

In addition Karen will give an insight on how she developed her business and how it is
changing. Website www.karenbrown.com One of our chapter members recently followed two of her guides (Tuscan & Mexico) and commented, “When I arrived at her recommended destination the experience I had envisioned by reading her guide, became a very pleasant reality.

I feel her presentation will be very informative – you may wish to invite a friend.
Karen will be bringing a full set of her guidebooks for door prizes.
