Anna Van Adrichem-Rochon retired from the travel industry in 2005. Just because she doesn’t go to an office everyday doesn’t mean that she is sitting in a rocking chair.

Anna was the franchisee of two locations of Algonquin Travel: Ottawa and Kemptville. Her involvement in this ever-changing industry included participating as a director on the Travel Industry Council of Ontario (TICO) during its formative years, and on the Franchisee Advisory Council of Algonquin Travel. Being a trainer and mentor to new franchisees was also a very satisfying role she played.

Anna’s days are now filled with her participation in a variety of service, community, and social organizations such as Rotary Club, Toastmasters Club, Friendship Force, and Probus; additionally, she is a Canadian Blood Services volunteer. She enjoys travel, photography, gardening and spending time with family and friends
