Kathy Dupuis

As a middle school teacher for 31 years, I was fortunate to be able to organize and accompany students on many school trips. Having taught English, history and geography for most of my career, I particularly enjoyed sharing my love of travel with my students, in addition to helping them to appreciate the background and culture of the places we visited. This was especially fun to share with students who, in many cases, had never been outside their own cities. Along with my husband, who taught at the same school as I did for many years, I guided student groups to such Canadian cities as Ottawa, Toronto, Niagara Falls and several other locations in southwestern Ontario, including several camp trips. I also escorted school trips to such American destinations as Boston, Chicago, Washington D.C. and New York City.

My personal travel experience includes both land and cruise trips to various Caribbean locations, as well as travel in Italy, England, Portugal and the Netherlands. In Canada, I've had the pleasure of visiting both the east and west coasts, as well as many locations within Ontario and Quebec. I have also travelled in the U.S., primarily in Hawaii, Arizona, Florida, Nevada and New York State.

I look forward to helping to make your travel experiences as exciting and informative as mine have been, and of sharing my love of travel with you and your group members.
