Tisha's passion for travel began at a young age ... with parents of Jamaican heritage who took her on their journeys around the world. After riding a camel through Giza and exploring the Khan el-Khalili market during a family trip to Cairo, 16-year-old Tisha Neufville realized the life-changing effects of travel. Her adoration for all things travel related flourished while venturing around the world for 16 years as a global qualitative researcher exploring the links between cultures, brands, and advertising for brands ranging from startups to Fortune 100s. She thrives on seeing and experiencing the world and has always been the go-to travel resource for her friends and family.
