Dhuyvetter has gone well beyond the "call of duty" to educate listeners
on the incredible opportunities available for those ready to truly
enhance their respective travel activities. Her passion for serving up a
menu of options with the appetizer of her enthusiasm and that of her
guests makes the program a most worthwhile listen on those early Sunday
mornings. VolunTours salutes Sandy for her vision and breadth of
coverage of issues and ideas that lead to a "soul-full" travel
experience. So much has changed since September 11th and travelers
really want to expand their horizons. Sandy and TravelTalkRADIO are
making every effort to deliver these means to a more inspirational form
of travel."
David L. Clemmons, Founder, Director of Partnerships & Development,

"Thank
you, Sandy, for the opportunity to chat with you on Travel Talk Radio
last week. It was a lot of fun to discuss our sacred travel programs
with you and your listeners. What a great wealth of information you give
travelers during your broadcasts ! I know from the daily requests for
tour information that we get, that in these challenging times people are
looking for information sources on travel that they can trust. What you
offer through Travel Talk Radio is extremely helpful, as you cover many
(if not all!) aspects of a person's trip. There is useful information
for people who are just beginning to travel...as well as for the
seasoned globe-trotters. Thanks for being here for all of us. AND, by
the way, your "Traveler's Credo for Peace" that you have posted on your
website contains many of the suggestions that we include in our "Travel
Tips and Hints" for our sacred tour group members. In leading our tours,
I've found that when people can hold those thoughts in their minds and
hearts on a daily basis, their travel experiences are enriched
immeasurably...as are the lives of all those they come in contact !
Thanks for the reminders !"

industry, not only in terms of the radio show itself, but also the
website as well as Sandy. Sandy's enthusiasm for travel issues and
solutions to those issues is a much needed contribution in a time when
consumers and travel suppliers face uncertain times. I also enjoy the
eclectic approach Travel Talk Radio encompasses in acting as an
information source for travel companies. This approach reflects
EyeforTravel's in that we create an environment were all sections of the
travel Industry can pow-wow to create deals, gather resources, and
create alliances. This approach has always proved a success for us and
it does for Travel Talk Radio as well. We at Eye for Travel appreciate

"I
would like to thank you for the opportunity to speak on Travel Talk
Radio. It is individual like you that make it easy for me to get a
message to the people who are most in need. I would like to thank you on
behalf of the San Diego AIDS Memorial Project and as a member of the San
Diego County HIV Prevention Board. By having me on your show we were
able to get a very important message out to thousand of your listeners.
That message was/is "Get tested, the HIV crisis is far from over and
infection numbers are dramatically increasing in women, Latinos, African
American, youth, and seniors. In addition, I would like to thank you for
helping get the word out about the Halloween Mexican Riviera fundraising

"Building of a Culture of Peace through Tourism" through your program
has been most valuable and is very much appreciated. Your stimulating
questions and comments provided a high level of energy in our discussion
of "Peace through Tourism" in a way that was directly relevant to your
audience. We particularly appreciate your promoting the IIPT Credo of
the Peaceful Traveler on your website and your kind introduction to
Paula Savage, of the Peace Gardens Foundation - an earlier guest, was
very considerate of you. We have since had several exchanges of emails
and telephone discussions, and I anticipate that we will be
collaborating in our efforts in the near future".
LOUIS D'AMORE President, International Institute for Peace through
Tourism
"Very
much enjoyed being (taped) on your show and look forward to hearing it

Kelvin Houchin, Exec VP, Radisson Edwardian Hotels
"I
just finished TravelTalkRADIO with Sandy. My name is Donna Zeigfinger and
I am the owner of Green Earth Travel (vegetarian travel). I loved doing
this segment. Sandy is such a pleasure to talk to! I emailed my list of
over 500 people to listen in and did have quite a few calls. She has a

"Tours
talk is an informative romp around the world of travel, and is breaking
new ground by enabling listeners to tune in online, whenever they
choose."
Michael Shapiro, TravelTech columnist, San Francisco Chronicle
"The Internet continues to escalate as the major medium consumers use
for researching their purchases. This trend has been particularly
evident in travel. Travel Talk Radio and its host Sandy Dhuyvetter, have
capitalized on this opportunity by providing a powerful, interactive,
"web show." Anyone with a PC can tune in to hear consequential and
insightful guests who provide information on travel. The user-friendly
format allows listeners to ask meaningful questions, either
telephonically or via e-mail. With this in mind, Trafalgar looks forward
to hopefully being invited back to participate with Sandy and her team
again".
Gavin Tollman, CTC President, Trafalgar Tours
"Sandy's enthusiastic personality and genuine love of experiencing fun,
exciting, unusual places of adventure are her calling cards and add to
the "virtual tour" as well as the "real thing". Travel Talk Radio is the
perfect media to get the word out to many people about unique events,
information about places to eat and sleep, as well as things that happen
to celebrities, i.e. NSYNC's Lance Bass going to the moon. Sandy makes
being on the show a comfortable experience; as if we were sitting in her
living room chatting about our travel discoveries. She takes the fear
out of "speaking to the public - live".
Lindy Poole, Manager, Kokopellis Cave B & B, Farmington, New Mexico
"Terrific program. Sandy has a way of relaxing her guests and maximizing
the information in a pleasant way."
-Gerry Wilson, Founder, Wilson Creek Winery and Vineyards, Temecula

and to our efforts to broaden public awareness of a high-speed, advanced

show's growing audience."
Albert Perdon, California Maglev Program Manager, Albert
Perdon & Associates

positive light. We know what a great product we have. Thanks to Travel
Talk Radio, a
whole lot of other folks know as well."
Steve Gray, VP Marketing and Sales Glacier Bay Cruiseline
"I discovered your program recently when Eric Lund was a guest
discussing one of my favorite haunts, Julian. By the end of the show, I
was on a mission to eat apple pie. Thank you for the topic (although
perhaps not the calories). "
Cynthia Dial, Author: Teach Yourself Travel Writing
"My
appearance on Travel Talk Radio went smoothly and was a positive experience. Sandy Dhuyvetter had obviously
taken the time to familiarize
herself with the background material I had sent. This made for a lively discussion: Sandy asked relevant questions with
my information and her
listeners' needs in mind."
Sharon Silverman, Author, The Pennsylvania Snack Tour
"America led the way with twenty-four hour news twenty years ago
with the launch of CNN. What followed were a plethora of copycat news
services, each trying to best an industry standard that CNN set. And,
with the growing reliance on the Internet for unbridled news comes a
growing host of webcast services, with the latest, Travel Talk Radio,
coming live from Carlsbad, California. And, when it comes to providing a
medium to cover virtually every aspect of tourism and travel,
TravelTalkRADIO.com delivers, hands down"!
Kurt Burkhart, Director, Carlsbad Convention and Visitors Bureau
