I’m truly passionate about
travel, whether it’s exploring new cultures, uncovering hidden gems, or helping
others plan their perfect escape. I love researching destinations, creating
unique trips, and capturing the journey through my photography.
While I plan all kinds of holidays, I also have a soft spot for sports travel,
there’s nothing like experiencing an F1 race or Football match live! Whether
it’s a relaxing beach break or an adrenaline filled getaway, I bring energy,
insight, and a personal touch to every trip.
Let’s turn your travel ideas into unforgettable experiences.

Having spent the last 30
years in the Travel Industry I can safely say "I love my job" !!
Getting to put together dream holidays is very rewarding and it's great to see
so many more Kiwis getting out to see this amazing world of ours...
I love to tailor holidays that are uniquely personal to you. Every person has
different needs, wants and "must do's" for their holiday. Nothing is
cookie cutter in the world of travel so being able to put together an itinerary
that is bespoke and personal is rewarding for myself and for you, the
traveller.
My favourite destinations would be Europe (especially France and Italy), South
East Asia (especially Vietnam and Thailand) and of course our Island
neighbours. I have been to Fiji numerous times and every time I just love it.
But there are so many places I have yet to travel to and I look forward to
sharing my travel stories along the way.
I look forward to working with you..
