Ryan Van Duzer – Travel Channel Academy alum at work
Today we are in San Antonio, Texas (home of the Alamo), where we are starting our first Texas based Travel Channel Academy. Â
Ironically, I also received an email this morning from Ryan Van Duzer, an alum of one of the very first Academies. Â He’s doing pretty well

This isn’t exactly videojournalism-related, but restaurant coverage is travel-related; there’s a very colorful and unique Mexican restaurant in the Mercado near the Alamo; it might make a good subject for a story.
The food’s excellent, too.
