Tailor-Made Travel Experiences – Built Around You

Travel is my true passion - I can’t get enough of it! I specialise in designing personalised, unforgettable holidays that bring people together. Whether you're travelling solo, as a couple, with family, or as part of a group, I’m here to make the planning process smooth, stress-free, and exciting.

From large group getaways to fully customised itineraries, I create holidays that reflect you - your interests, your pace, and your dream destinations. Whether it’s a river cruise, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, or a special interest journey, I’m committed to turning your travel dreams into reality.

In 2024, I was honoured to receive two personal awards and a Rising Star Award from one of our valued suppliers, and in 2025 a prestigious Diamond Award at the Helloworld Conference. These recognitions inspire me to continue delivering exceptional service and results for my clients. As a proud member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association), I’m also your go-to for expert cruise advice and planning.

Wandered There, Loved That – My Travel Log

My own adventures have taken me all over the world — from cruising the open seas and hiking around Uluru, to sipping fresh water straight from Lake Tahoe and snapping selfies beneath the Golden Gate Bridge.

Some of my favourite travel experiences include:

ASIA: Singapore (a new favourite!), Bintan Island (Indonesia), Guangzhou (China)

AUSTRALIA: Melbourne, Perth, Uluru, Sydney
NORTH AMERICA: Hawaii, Mexico, USA (San Francisco, LA, San Diego, Tahoe, Reno, Sacramento, and more)
SOUTH PACIFIC: Fiji, Rarotonga (Cook Islands), New Caledonia, Vanuatu
UK/EUROPE: Germany, Netherlands
NEW ZEALAND: Both North and South Islands

Whether it’s shopping until my suitcase won’t close, chasing sunsets in the South Pacific, or exploring vibrant cities and tranquil islands, I love helping my clients experience the same joy and wonder I’ve found in travel.

When you return from a trip I’ve helped plan, I want you to feel enriched, energised, and already dreaming of your next adventure.
