Years before becoming a Reflexologist, I was considered a world authority on retailing of airports.  In this regard I lectured to Canadian municipal and international governments about the huge economic opportunities for them to cash in on via the bustling terminal activity in their huge lumps of airport real estate.  One of my projects was consulting on the huge retail expansion to Vancouver’s airport.

I ventured inside and took the bait. Read the rest of this entry »
