Travel is my passion! I started in the industry when I was 18 with Air NZ and I still thrive on it. Cruising, touring and family holidays are my specialty, there's nothing I love more than helping our clients create their own dream holidays.

I’ve been living and breathing travel for longer than I’d care to admit—and I’ve loved every minute of it! From the moment I entered the world of travel, I’ve been captivated by the magic of exploring new places, immersing myself in diverse cultures, and creating unforgettable memories.

When I first started in the travel industry, I didn’t even have a passport! Fast forward a few months, and that had all changed – I hit the ground running on my first overseas adventure, and I haven’t stopped since.

What our customers have to say

  • When my grandma passed away in the USA, I was so thankful to House of Travel for getting me there and back. I would gladly pay for their expertise and knowledge again. Sometimes you may think it is easier to do it on your own but they took the stress out of it. I appreciated all they did for me.
