“We are proud to partner with such admired and compelling influencers in the Latino community who truly embody what the #LoveTravels campaign is all about,” said Stacey Milne, Vice President, Portfolio Marketing Strategy and Planning, Marriott International. “Marriott embraces all and is dedicated to finding inspiring stories that illustrate how people pursue their dreams, and bring their passions to life when they travel.”
"Some people travel on vacation to get away from it all, but I travel to get to it all,” said Diane Guerrero. “I’m passionate about issues such as human rights and immigration reform and when I travel, I get to support this work, discovering new things and meeting new people.”
"Traveling allows us to expand our cultural boundaries, which in turn inspires our artistic passions,” added Alejandro Luis Manzano. “Expressing our art through performing allows us to share our #LoveTravels story with the world.”
The #LoveTravels social movement kicked off in 2014 with Jason Collins, Geena Rocero, Angela Simmons, and Tim Howard. Earlier this year, Marriott launched the 2015 #LoveTravels campaign with TV personality Ross Mathews during the Washington, D.C. Capital Pride Parade and Chicago Pride Parade.
