Turning your travel dreams into your favourite memories
Hi, I’m Emily, your personal travel planner for unforgettable holidays, unique experiences and far‑flung adventures.
Travel is not just my job, it is my passion and I bring real, lived experience to every trip I design. Having visited 50 countries across all corners of the world, I love helping you to uncover the magic that makes each destination feel truly special, creating memories that last a lifetime.
I spent over a decade living in Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore, immersing myself in local life and exploring their surrounding regions. From off‑road driving and sleeping under the stars in Kakadu National Park in Australia’s Northern Territory, to celebrating Christmas on a tiny Thai island, honeymooning in Mauritius and travelling across Japan with a baby, these experiences inspire the way I create thoughtful, highly personal journeys for others.
Whether you are dreaming of a relaxing beach escape, a luxury European city break, a family ski holiday in the Alps or an once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventure on the other side of the world, I will design a trip that feels just right for you.
I run my own travel business, supported by the award‑winning team at Travel Counsellors. What makes working with me different is the level of care and accessibility I offer: I am here for you beyond standard office hours, at times that work around your schedule, and I will always take the time to get to know the extra details that matter most to you. In addition, Travel Counsellors provides 24/7 duty office assistance, a dedicated crisis support team and complete financial protection for total peace of mind.
Most importantly, you will always be speaking to a real person who understands your needs, never waiting on hold or navigating automated systems! With access to a global network of trusted partners, unique experiences and expert local teams, I will help you create a perfectly tailored itinerary with that extra touch of magic. I cannot wait to hear from you and start planning your next escape.

Singapore - a city to savour & a springboard to Southeast Asia
Singapore is one of my favourite places, not just to visit but to live. I was lucky enough to call it home for three years, which meant I could get beneath the shiny skyline and really experience its neighbourhoods, food, culture and everyday rhythm. It is a city of many identities, and that is exactly what makes it so special.

Planning your first family ski holiday
There are so many incredible places to ski in Europe, and even more if you look globally, that planning your first family ski holiday can feel a little overwhelming. Over the last three years I’ve taken my young family skiing three times, in three very different ways. I hope our experiences help you decide what might work for your first trip.

Your holiday isn’t just a trip away. It’s a longed-for escape, time to reconnect with loved ones, or a dream adventure you never thought possible. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know you and understand your hopes and expectations, then use my experience, connections and passion for the destination to create a trip that makes those dreams a reality.
Personalised service. Always
When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call.
