It's Nice To Meet You
Hello and welcome to my website, I’m so pleased you've landed here!
I am a personal Travel Counsellor based in Beaconsfield where I've lived with my husband, and Percy our Border Terrier for the last 6 years. After falling in love with Beaconsfield when we first visited we are now very happy to call it home.
I have always been passionate about travel so I feel very lucky to have been able to turn my passion into a career. I have been in the travel industry now for 12+ years specialising in creating incredible tailor-made adventures for my clients. Whether you are looking for a quick city break in Europe, a luxury safari in South Africa, a romantic honeymoon in the Maldives, an action packed overland trip across Asia, an exotic beach holiday or a twelve month round the world adventure I can create the perfect bespoke escape for you using my own travel expertise and extensive destination knowledge. I am a certified Australia and New Zealand specialist, an expert in overland travel in Asia, Africa and South America and I have attended a travel academy in South Africa.
My love of travel became a passion when I first took a gap year and travelled via Asia to both Australia and New Zealand. After this I had well and truly caught the travel bug and have now been lucky enough to experience over 60 countries and counting – everywhere from Jordan to the Cook Islands. I’m often asked which destination has been my favourite but it’s too hard to choose so here are my top 5 stand out moments so far:
Paragliding over Rio de Janeiro, exploring beautiful walking trails in Canada, snorkelling with tropical fish on coral reefs in the Maldives, hiking on the Fox Glacier in New Zealand, and spotting tigers in Ranthambore National Park, India.
Here at Travel Counsellors we are famous for our personal service and the care we show for our clients and their trips which is one of the many reasons why I love running my own travel business alongside this organisation - we also offer the best financial protection in the industry.
Throughout the planning and booking process I will be your personal travel expert on hand to guide you and ensure everything is taken care of in the lead up to your trip and whilst you are away. As I am running my own personal business from home I am flexible and can work around you - whether you’d like to chat about your plans over the phone or meet for a coffee I’m here to ensure your entire experience is second to none.
I am completely independent so my advice and recommendations come without compromise and I am always honest about what I think will work best for you as my client. I pride myself on my personal and friendly service and I believe now more than ever trust is paramount to booking any type of travel. All my clients also have access to our incredible My TC app which stores all your quotes, details of each booked trip and easy access to documentation, travel itineraries and travel updates on the move.
I would love to make your dream trip a reality so please reach out to me by phone or email and let's start chatting about your plans – I can’t wait to hear from you!

Namibia Roadtrip: From Desert Dunes to Self Drive Safaris
First things first: why Namibia? Because where else can you sprint down a 325-metre sand dune before lunch, leap out of a plane over the Atlantic by tea-time, and share sundowners with black rhino at sunset? If you’re craving an adrenaline fuelled adventure, ever-changing landscapes and wildlife that still outnumber tourists, put Namibia at the top of your “do-it-before-everyone-else-does” list.

Tanzanian Honeymoon Adventure
I LOVE helping my clients plan their honeymoon and this particular honeymoon stands out as one of my absolute favourites to plan!!

How to extend your holiday with a stopover
Holiday stopovers are one of my all time favourite things about a longhaul holiday... Why? Because you're basically getting two holidays in one. There's no worse feeling than packing your suitcase ready to come home and wondering how the time flew by so quick. So what if you weren't coming straight home, but instead you had a few days in another amazing destination to look forward to! Most people

5 days in Rio
Brazil has always been high on my list of countries to explore so I always imagined going there for a few weeks to pack in everything from the Amazon to Iguassu Falls. So, when I found some incredibly reasonable flights to head to Rio for my partners birthday back in August 2019, I came to realise that Rio was actually the perfect destination for a city / beach break. It might seem like a long way

Canada - my solo road trip in Banff National Park
This was part 2 of my three-week epic cross-country adventure in Canada and I was going it alone. I had met up with family in Toronto and I was meeting a friend when I got to Vancouver but for this mid-section I had 4 days to explore Banff National Park as a solo traveller. I decided the best way for me to do this would be to hire a car, so I flew into Calgary and picked up my ride directly from

Honeymooning with my Mum in Bali
Bali – a spiritual paradise, home to enchanting temples, looming volcanoes, exotic landscapes and stunning beaches. I had been desperate to visit Bali for a while - pictures of beautiful private pool villas, exotic beaches and rice terrace swings on Instagram had lured me in. Now all I needed was someone to go with, so I decided to ask my Mum. We hadn’t been on holiday just the two of us for ages

The Maldives by boat
I had always had my eye on the Maldives and found myself constantly dreaming of never-ending white sand beaches and turquoise waters. At the time I was single and not exactly rolling in money, and I thought the Maldives was just for honeymooners, couples and families who could afford to splash out on luxury accommodation. That was until G Adventures launched their Maldives Sailing trip. This was a
