Lovely to meet you

I am very passionate about travel that can immerse us into the cultures of the country we visit.

Being sustainable and giving back to these communities whilst we travel is so important to me and I have many tips and experiences to help do this on all holidays.

My favourite holiday memories

  • New York
    New York Laura Hutchins

    The Top of the Rock at the Rockefeller centre in New York is an absolute must do for everyone! The most epic views of the Empire State Building from one side, and Central Park from the other. Seeing the famous skyline during the day, and again at night with their Sun and Stars ticket is an amazing experience and something I will go back to every time I visit!

  • India

    The Taj Mahal at sunrise is something I will never forget! Lining up at 5am in the morning, getting through the ticket gates and then running down to be the first ones to see this incredible building is a travel memory that will stick with me forever! Having time to wander the grounds and explore the different buildings is a very peaceful experience – even with all the people!
