While I'm now in a
part-time support role for our incredible team of Travel Specialists, I have
been part of the Calder & Lawson family since 2011. I've worked across
all areas of the business, including as a Travel Specialist from 2018-2021. Renee |
Whatever your travel dreams, I will work with you to create the best holiday possible. The holidays I specialise in include:
Food -Some may call me a pasta snob these days, as my first visit to Italy really ruined any other kind of pasta for me! Handmade pasta really is something else, as is their tiramisu! You'll often find me at local food markets, hidden gems where locals go to eat, taking a traditional cooking class or doing a street-food tour!
R&R- As a mum now, travel is as much for adventuring as it is for relaxing and recharging. I'll always make sure I have time aside to "just be" in that destination. Whether that's by the pool, sitting in a beautiful park with a good book, treating myself to a spa treatment or midday siesta! Make sure you take time for yourself.
Local Tours- Walking tours are an epic way to see a new place and get your all-important step count! Bicycle tours are another favourite, especially if it includes wine. And I'm a sucker for a "hop on hop off" bus tour, at least a 24hr pass so I can get my bearings of a new city and use it as my transport around too, win-win!
People Watching - Take it from the French, who have all their café outdoor tables & chairs facing outwards to the street so you can people watch. Remember though - if you decide to dine in rather than takeaway, it often will be a little pricier! Immerse yourself in the local culture, learn a bit of the language (it goes a long way) and have a go at the local transport systems like the Metro/underground train systems.
