After many years in the travel industry, what makes this job special to me, is having my clients return from their trips to tell me about their adventures and then wanting to rebook another holiday with me - they do say the best way to overcome the post-travel blues is to already be planning your next one, and I couldn’t agree more!

I really do have a passion for travel especially visiting new destinations. I very rarely spend my holidays at home. I'm usually on a plane with husband Mike - suitcases over packed as usual.
