It's Nice To Meet You
Hello, I'm Jo , Thanks for visiting my page. I live near Hertford with my two children who are 17 and 15. I have always been passionate about travel and have visited many places around the world. I love helping people take the stress out of finding the right holiday and can enable them to make lasting memories with their friends and families.
In a previous life I have worked for The BBC, Yahoo! and Microsoft and more recently I was a specialist travel agent putting together bespoke, multicentre trips to Australia and New Zealand plus stopovers in Asia and other Asia Pacific destinations. I lived in Sydney in my 20's and I travelled home exploring South East Asia as part of my round the world trip. This is where my love of travel and exploring new places was first ignited.
In the last year I have visited the beautiful Maldives, Australia's incredible Northern Territory, and amazing Singapore and Bali, plus Hvar in Croatia which is fast becoming one of my favourite countries. Over the years I have also skied in France, Italy and Austria on both family trips, large group trips and short breaks with friends.
As a Travel Counsellor I have total flexibility to help you find the holiday you want and can be reached at a time that suits you. I am able to respond quickly to your needs and offer a one to one personal service. I offer an independent, bespoke service and build holidays from a huge range of products and suppliers to make your trip truly unique. I work with our partners to create complex experiential trips and personal tailor made itineraries. I have access to incredible technology which allows me to book your holidays with security and confidence. At Travel Counsellors we offer 100% financial protection and 24/7 emergency support so you can book your holiday with peace of mind that your money is safe and you will be looked after while you are away.
Whether you are looking for summer sunshine, winter sports, long haul destinations, city breaks, family holidays , honeymoons or business travel I can produce the best experience for you.
I am committed to being there with you from start to finish, from the planning stage to arriving back home safely and everything in between.
Please call or email me today and I will start researching your unique holiday.

Exploring Australia’s Northern Territory: The Undiscovered Frontier
In 2023 I was lucky enough to visit the Northern Territory, I found myself in a part of Australia that felt wild, untouched, and entirely unique. Unlike the popular coastal destinations, the Northern Territory is a land of striking contrasts—where ancient rock formations, sweeping deserts, and lush wetlands tell a story shaped over millennia. Many people for their first trip to Australia stick to

Singapore stopover with teenagers
Singapore is the perfect stopover location for flying to Asia and Australasia. I spent 3 days there in July with three teenagers on my way to Bali. I had been there before, but in the past had caught up with friends so hadn’t explored much of the city itself. We stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel on Sentosa Island , so we were close to Universal theme park and the water park as this would be a fun p
