Their rationale is they both have tour experience, Emilio is a sommelier and currently works on tours, Sofie has a small amount of social media clout - so why not. Except there are plenty of tours already like this and Sofie and Emilio don’t have the personalities of people you would want to stay with for the larger part of your trip. They should have started a sommelier and restaurant tour business taking people around their city where he could talk about wine and she could do food in restaurants and could use her influencer status to do collabs.The more I see her talking about her travel Co.pany or whatever it is, the less sense it makes. Why would you choose some random influencer to design you a tour rather than all of the other tour companies. The only benefit of the weird parasocial influencer relationship is people wanting to go on a trip with you, like kacie and Lauren are doing
