We could tell you a lot about Senior Pre-departure Specialist Claudette Fors. Like how she was born and raised in Puerto Rico until the age of 18. Or that she spent a full month in Spain and fell in love with the culture of Granada. We could even mention her secret (until now) passion for The Settlers of Catan board game. 

However, we’d rather tell you that after four years of working at EF Smithsonian Student Travel, Claudette still finds inspiration in the teachers that she talks to on a daily basis and the thrill she gets from helping them plan their trip. 

Not a stranger to travel herself, Claudette visits Puerto Rico every year to visit family, and plans on her next expedition to be to Turkey. Hopefully she follows her own advice that she always shares with Group  Leaders, and that’s to drink water – lots of it!
