ABOUT THE TRAVELUTION HQ
At The Travelution HQ, we believe travel is more than a vacation—it’s a revolution. Every journey has the power to change the way we see the world, challenge our perspectives, and transform who we become.
But we also believe the places we visit should benefit from our presence. Travel should leave communities stronger, not strained. That’s why we’re committed to supporting local businesses, celebrating local cultures, respecting wildlife and natural environments, and encouraging responsible, sustainable travel whenever possible.
Our mission is to create experiences that go beyond checking destinations off a bucket list. Whether we’re exploring the Galápagos Islands, wandering through the neighborhoods of Japan, experiencing the energy of Brazil, or discovering a hidden gem, we believe the most meaningful journeys are the ones that foster genuine connections—with people, cultures, and the world around us.
The Travelution HQ is more than a travel company—it’s a community of curious explorers who want their adventures to have purpose. Through immersive group trips, personalized travel planning, and shared experiences, we help travelers discover incredible destinations while making a positive impact along the way.
Because the best trips don’t just change the traveler—they help preserve and celebrate the places that make those journeys possible.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Pamela Bertelson
For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by travel, exploring, and learning new things. On top of that, I love organizing and planning. I am a Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) since 2016. This means my expertise is in planning events and conferences. I have been working in the hospitality industry since 2010. My first time on an airplane was a flight to Japan in high school. Ever since then I have been bitten by the travel bug. I studied international studies and have extensive international travel. Among the countries I have been to is Canada, Mexico, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Burma, Korea, Grenada, Germany, Italy, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Portugal, Spain, England, Scotland, Colombia, Ecuador, and Brazil. I grew up in Wisconsin, lived in Japan for six years, and Washington, DC for 15 years, before making my way to Seattle in 2021. Travel planning is how I relax. I love helping people plan a great trip. I combine my extensive travel and planning experience to curate unique experiences for everyone.
