AS SVP, HAD THE PERK OF TRAVELING YEARLY TO UK, HOLLAND, IRELAND, FRANCE, GERMANY, ETC. BUT REGRET NOT VISITING HONG KONG (where Paramount had an office) and Sidney, Australia (where the largest purchaser of our designs was located)...each trip would have cost me 0$ and would've been exciting adventure...but felt too busy at many times opportunities offered, so regret to this day I didn't go. So both plus several others on bucket list.
