Office Hours with Katalina

Some of my favorite conversations happen outside of work — with people figuring out how to build something in travel or break into the industry for the first time. Over the years I've had the chance to work with people across all stages — aspiring travel entrepreneurs trying to figure out where to start, operators looking to scale, and career changers wanting to break into the industry. Some of the things we've dug into together:

  • Starting a travel company — business model, niche, pricing, early mistakes to avoid

  • Breaking into the travel industry — how to get in the room, what roles actually exist, what the industry looks for

  • Building operations that scale — how El Camino thinks about systems, partnerships, and team

  • AI and automation in travel — what I'm actually using, what's working, what's hype

  • Distribution and revenue — how travel companies actually make money (it's more nuanced than it looks)
