From Passion to Purpose: Why KHM Travel Agents Love What They Do

Last updatedJune 16, 2025

Everyone enters the travel industry for different reasons. At KHM Travel Group, we’re proud to support a wide range of travel dreams – from building a thriving business, to waking up to a career you love, or making travel possible for those who feel it’s out of reach. Our education, resources, and support are here for you.

We asked our agent community to share their stories, and their responses were full of passion, purpose, and personal growth.


What do you love most about being a travel agent?

“I love getting to hear about how travel excites and brings joy to my clients. Though retired for the last year, taking on owning and operating a business has been a wonderful experience. I'm positively impacting my community, while enriching my own life through my travels, through helping others travel and through the relationships with other affiliated agents.” – Chris A.

“I love sharing the knowledge and experience of the destinations I sell to my clients and travelers. It is all about building education, empathy and compassion. The impact has been profound for my world view and love for my fellow man/woman.” – Wendy P.

“I love the flexibility of this career and it's allowed me to stay home with my kids for the last 9 years. I can choose to work when I want to, and even though sometimes that's a LOT, if I need to run someone to the doctor, or go to a school party, that's always doable! Besides the fact that I never feel like I'm working. Booking travel is what I absolutely love. I can't picture myself doing anything else!” – Jennifer L.

“Before I was an agent, I had a very limited view of the world at large--I really did not know my geography and could not tell you where countries were located...as I have grown in my knowledge, my love for the WORLD has increased--for its people, cultures, beauty, food and experiences...Nothing like travel to open your mind to whole new possibilities and then to share that passion with clients has been an unending source of Joy for me.” – Linda A.



While the rewards of being a travel advisor are endless, having the right tools and guidance makes all the difference. That’s why 5,000+ agents have chosen to partner with KHM Travel Group.

“I’m still in the early stages, but I’m incredibly grateful to have found KHM—they’ve been fantastic to work with and incredibly supportive every step of the way.” – Victoria C.

“I recently attended KHM's On the Concourse regional event in my area, and it was nice to finally meet Bill Coyle in person. I also reconnected with other area KHM agents I met last year on a ship inspection. Everyone I have met in this organization has been extremely warm, helpful, and outgoing. I can't imagine being affiliated with any other host agency.” – Brian S.

“KHM offers mentorship, education, support, and the staff and many agents. I have encountered all operate like a big family. Everyone is supportive of one another. I also appreciate the leadership's unapologetic Christian faith, as well as their support and inclusion of diversity in the organization. I love my KHM family.” – Zac W.

“I have had so much personal and professional growth because of KHM. The travel industry is constantly evolving, offering opportunities for me to learn, grow, and expand my skills & being with KHM Travel Group opens all these doors and provides endless resources and updated information about the industry. Agents bond together and help each other out, agent support is just incredible. Best host company out there!” – Dawn W.

“Getting to where I am today wasn’t easy, and I almost gave up on my dream. I’m so glad I didn’t, instead I turned to Bill Coyle and the rest of the KHM experts at Boot Camp for help. And today I have a successful business that’s growing by leaps and bounds. And I wouldn’t change anything for the world.” – Annamarie G.
