An Interview With Frank Bolla
How many years have you been selling travel?
I have been a Travel Consultant since 1995.
What are your hobbies?
I love photography. The subjects of my photographs are cruise ships, tall ships and other sea-going vessels. I also love photographing historic buildings in Europe and the lush jungles of the tropics.
What type of resort activities do you favor? ie water sports, lounging by the pool, etc?
I love swimming and ocean kayaking. After my recent trip to the Mayan Riviera, I discovered a new passion: snorkeling. We went on an excursion to several popular snorkeling spots, both in the ocean and in the amazing cenotes that dot the Yucatan Peninsula.
Then, after a hard day of playing in and around the water, there's nothing better than being served a refreshing margarita while laying on the beach of my resort. Ahhh, paradise!
What are your favorite destinations?
Besides cruising, my favorite destination is Europe. The continent is amazing and history is "dripping" on every street corner. And the culture and the food ... WOW!!! One of my favorite cities is Budapest. The spectacular capitol of Hungary is the jewel of central Europe. My favorite small town however, is Salzburg in Austria. The birth place of Mozart is one of the most charming places I've ever been to and is close to other amazing attractions like Neuschwanstein Castle, just across the border with Germany, near Fussen.
What languages do you speak?
Besides English, I can speak Hungarian, though I often cause outbursts of laughter when speaking to Hungarians, due to my "interesting" pronunciations of certain words.
