WHO IS NTT?
Someone (like me) who
– Hates being in a group among 25 other tourists
– Likes to visit a place in a unique and personal manner
– Loves to find hidden gem destinations & undiscovered venues
– Likes hanging with the locals more than the local tourist office
– Knows a great place for dining or shopping that’s well off the beaten path
