David McNicoll: Author of Language of Whisky book, published in 2020 / owner Vacation ScotlandI am a hard working professional, with a view to promoting Scotland, and its many aspects through travel, writing and involvement in societies, clubs and events.Using flair, passion, enthusiasm and some charisma I bring to bear my knowledge and hopefully drive forward both travel and interest in Scotland. It is a great privilege to be involved in some fantastic projects and business opportunities both in Scotland and in the United States.So, from whisky to history, fun to the future - I hope that I can make a difference.***********************************************************************I am also the proud owner of Vacation Scotland, which is a Scottish Travel Company based in New York; and it is my ambition to grow the business and make it one of the key American based Scottish travel companies. Over the years and up to the present day I have been involved in numerous committees to plan events, raise money for charity or to help by volunteering my time, expertise and enthusiasm - from the Dunkeld Bridge 200 Celebrations in 2009 to my current work with the American Scottish Foundation. This is a very rewarding part of what I do, and allows me to express myself, give of myself and learn how best to deliver on other people's expectations.I would wish continue this , and be involved in many more projects and teams building strong working relationships, which in turn I can use in my business to provide an even better level of service; and, to promote Scotland as a whole.Specialties: Event planning, tour package preparation, guiding, writing, history lecturing, whisky tasting expert, entrepreneurship
