Have you ever gotten sick while traveling? I once spent three days of a dream trip to Thailand stuck in a hotel room with food poisoning. Now, I never travel without meds, but I still worry about getting hit with something worse. Have you ever gotten sick while traveling? How did you deal with it, and do you have any tips for avoiding travel disasters?

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks
