Lovely to meet you

I'm incredibly passionate about creating unforgettable experiences! I love blending travel, culture and soulful cuisine to make each event truly special. Organising Weddings, honeymoons and intimate holidays over the past 20 years has brought me so much joy. My deep connection to the South Pacific Islands and Australia, rooted in my Norfolk Island heritage, adds personal touch to my work.

My journey, filled with diverse experiences and insights, has been truly enriching and I enjoy sharing my knowledge with my clients for holidays and Cruises World Wide.

My favourite holiday memories

Lord Howe Island

Never have I ever been to a destination where the water is as crystal clear at Lord Howe Island. Just Paradise.
Tahiti

Tahiti is my favourite destination, I could feel our culture in my soul when I was there. I can't wait to return, it brings tears to my eyes when I see videos of Tahiti and her islands in movies.
Vanuatu

Vanuatu was very enjoyable. I thoroughly enjoyed an over night stay at Mt Yasur on Tanna Island, I visited many of the resorts, Iririki island, The Grand Casino with lunches at the high end properties. The culture is very insightful, Port Villa was very interesting and overall a great destination to visit.
Norfolk

Norfolk Island, my home, my heart. 9th Generation Norfolk Island with extensive knowledge of wholesale and retail travel to Norfolk.
Gold Coast

I've frequented the Gold Cost many of years, lived in Brisbane for six years and completed school there. During covid I was lucky to spend a long couple of months on the Gold Coast and again in January 2021 where we enjoyed Palazzo Versace Gold Coast with my family.

My travel passions

I love to submerge myself in the salty ocean water and feel the sand between my toes during my first few minutes at a new destination. It's this first stage of any trip which makes you relax and be ready to immerse yourself into your destinations culture and ways.

Destination weddings are a passion true to my heart. Planning a destination event is smart for the budget, incorporates a relaxed atmosphere for all guests attending.

Quick trips with minimal planning, pick a place and go. Follow your heart to explore stunning destinations out of your comfort zone.

Future travel goals for myself have changed now I have a young family, I will take them to explore across the globe and delve into the cruise world in Europe and destinations which are beyond the islands and always been on my to do list. Paris, Greece, Italy!

Where I have travelled to

What my customers have to say

Very patient with me as I have PTSD and was struggling to remember things. She took time for me to check with fellow travellers to make sure I had things right. Very patient, supportive and cheery.

Rosemary
Carli was efficient quick with her responses, friendly and also showed great integrity by refunding a discount that was received after completing our holiday plans . I would recommend her to my friends.

Murray
Carli obviously knew her stuff and gave us confidence. She was very helpful with suggestions to our initial plans for a holiday.

Eric
The Agent who greeted me was also most helpful. Took great trouble to sort flights and also accommodation to suit my needs.

My travel stories

Postcard from Lord Howe Island

Lord Howe Island, NSW Australia.

A true hidden gem of the world unknown to many. I've always described it as stepping into its only eco climate, native flora and fauna with cascading cliff faces and No.1 world Hikes, Mount Gower.
