In 1977 I was bitten by the travel bug. I never tire of talking or listening to people talk of their adventures, holidays, journeys and experiences. ' Of all the books in the world, the best stories are found between the pages of a passport'.

I have been in travel since I left school so I won't say how many years ago that was! Travel has always been part of my daily life and I can't imagine a day when I am not discussing, organising or dreaming of travel.

I love the excitement of travel and discovering new counties and revisiting past favourites. I love adventure destinations and being active on my holidays but also enjoy relaxing on and reading a good in the right spot.
