Just got an email from a long-known client about traveling to St. Bart's next month and touring about the Caribb for a week.  He was very timid in asking about rates.  I have REALLY enjoyed being with this man, so, of course, my published rates would be far from what I'd demand of him.... being that I know him, like him, and that it's for an extended time...

So, gentlemen, don't be shy about asking for rates from your ATF's about travel -- if they know you and like you, you're likely to get a great deal and have an incredibly fabulous, amazing time together!  (ie I went to the Italian Riviera with a guy I've known for a long time for five days for only $5k!  My published rates would demand over 25k!  But that was a little unusual....)  Happy travels!!
