It's Nice To Meet You

I imagine that you have found your way onto my page as a starting point for your next adventure? Maybe you are thinking of a relaxing week on a secluded sandy beach, or a tailor made trip of a lifetime exploring deepest darkest Peru or a stylish city break to New York. Whatever your thoughts and hopes are for your next holiday, I am positive I can help.

Being an independent travel agent, I am passionate about travel and enjoy the whole experience from the early planning stages right the way through to the eventual return home and looking through all of the memories made on the camera. Being able to walk alongside you throughout this process and help you build the holiday of your dreams is quite simply the best job (if I can even call it that, it really doesn’t feel like work).

As a Travel Counsellor, I can offer so much more than the High Street shops or the internet. With me, not only can I create entirely bespoke holidays through my access to thousands of flights, hotels and experiences from every corner of the globe. I also offer exceptional service from beginning to end. With me, you will not have to worry about a thing.

Over the years I have travelled all over the world however with 2 young children my escapades have taken a somewhat different approach! It doesn’t make me love it any less and it is amazing watching my kids experience different countries and cultures. I have found that attention to detail is the key difference between a good holiday and an amazing one, so whether you are travelling with a family, going solo or have any other requirements I will be sure to take note and adapt your trip to make it the best yet.

I have access to industry leading systems and tools that enable me to piece together your unique holiday. I pride myself on my attention to detail and ability to think ahead so any demands or requests that you may have will be catered for.

It is also worth noting that any holidays booked through me are 100% financially protected by either our Travel Counsellor financial trust or by ATOL.

I am available on the phone; via e mail or through Facebook at any time so please do not hesitate to contact me. I would love to hear from you.

Why Taking the Kids on an Adventure Holiday is the Best Gift You Can Give

11 June 2025

When planning a family holiday, the temptation to book a relaxing beach resort is huge. Sand, sun, pools, and ice creams — it sounds perfect, right? But if you always stick to the tried-and-tested beach holidays, you might be missing out on something truly special. Adventure travel with kids opens doors to education, growth, and deeper family memories that last a lifetime. Here’s why shaking up yo

Rome with the Kids

16 November 2022

Rome is the city breaks of all city breaks, so much history in one place! This is the first place I visited with my husband when we were dating many moons ago and since then, Italy has been one of our favourite countries to visit. This time though, we took the kids and went as an extended family with my parents and siblings. For one week, at the end of August we soaked up not just the sun but a

Moroccan Feast!

15 November 2022

Morocco is known for many things- it is a truly beautiful country full of colour, style, the friendliest people and delicious food! I love the food so much, I am dedicating this whole blog to it! The Moroccan culture and its food is fascinating with a mixture of Imazighen, Arab, Spanish, Jewish and French influences (and so much more!). When you think about the flavours and smells or Morocco y

I love cruising!

15 November 2022

It is no surprise that I love a cruise…I say that but it was a surprise to me initially as I never saw myself as a ‘cruiser’! I had some pre-conceived ideas about it being something you did after you retired…it was boring…you had no freedom…it was super expensive. It is safe to say that not only have I been proven wrong on all of these points but I have found cruising offers so much more! It’s

Morocco with Intrepid

02 April 2022

Morocco, a country full of vibrant colours, friendly people, magical sights and delicious food. It is close enough on a flight to be convenient (around 3 hours), but when you step off the plane you feel like you are a million miles from home. For this trip I travelled with Intrepid Travel, a fantastic purpose-led adventure travel company with a BIG heart. They pride themselves on giving back to t

It's time to make a Bucket List!

21 October 2021

Compiling a wish list of your must-see destinations is harder than you might think. It is easy to get over-excited (if there really is such a thing when it comes to travel), and you end up writing every country in the world down and in the end your ‘to-see’ list is as long as your arm and feels a bit unfathomable… which one comes first?.. where do I start?... which is the easiest? I personally

Cruising onboard Norwegian Epic

21 October 2021

My recent experiences with Norwegian Cruise Line were truly Epic by name and Epic by nature! It was not only the first time I have cruised with NCL but it marked the first time I have left the country since the pandemic. Getting on the plane was an emotional occasion and not just for me but for everyone- there was a real buzz and excitement about going away and that feeling of heat when we reach

New York City- Winter vs Summer

28 July 2021

New York is a popular choice for a city break and one which I have been to several times. It really is a city that never sleeps and one where the energy is like nowhere I have been to before! I have also had the pleasure of enjoying the Big Apple in both Summer and Winter, both seasons have their attractions but here are some of my favourites: Winter - Festive lights and the shop windows are ma

How has covid changed my business?

21 September 2020

It probably goes without saying that covid has drastically impacted my business and the way I work. At the beginning of 2020 I was executing my plans and succeeding in having my best year yet as a Travel Counsellor and then over the course of a few weeks, the enormity of coronavirus really started to dawn on me and everyone within the travel industry. The initial months of lockdown felt nothing

The British Pullman

17 September 2020

It isn’t often that Belmond invite you onboard in a professional capacity to experience the fantastic British Pullman whilst she traverses the Kent countryside on her ‘Golden Age of Travel’ trip and of course I jumped at the chance and loved every minute! A luxurious brand with a reputation to match I was looking forward to putting one of my favourite frocks on and exploring the train and all sh

Where it all started!

17 September 2020

Costa Rica is where it all started for me- my travel obsession. My love for exploring and need to see as much of the world as I can! I was a young 17 year old given an opportunity at school with a charity to travel to Costa Rica for 4 weeks of adventure, community work and hard slogs. I certainly came back a different person to the one who left Brackley… and with a new love for coffee! We star

Whistle stop guide to Cape Town

01 May 2020

I find describing South Africa as a holiday destination hard, not because it is dull or boring, oh no… but because it is everything. Quite honestly there is nothing this country cannot offer you as a holiday destination (well maybe apart from skiing?). If you love the beach- go to South Africa If you love nature- go to South Africa If you love food and drink- go to South Africa If you love trav

Family Cruise Onboard MSC Bellissima

22 January 2020

Before I started my business as a Travel Counsellor, the thought of a cruise hadn’t even hit my consciousness. My adventures had always been overland and I had made some (incorrect) assumptions and deemed a cruise to not be ‘my cup of tea’. That was until a colleague said to me ‘you wait, once you step on a ship you will get it’… and boy was that true! The first ship I visited was on the launch

Transatlantic cruise with Cunard

11 August 2019

‘It is not the destination but the journey that counts’ and boy is this is true on a Transatlantic crossing on board the Cunard Queen Mary 2! As you would expect Cunard are a well-oiled machine with the embarkation process being quick and painless. Before we had a chance to think about it, we were being welcomed on board and we started exploring the ship that would carry us home. First stop was

24 hours in San Francisco!

27 June 2019

Time was certainly of the essence on my recent jaunt to San Francisco! Why so short, I hear you ask? One of my brothers works as cabin crew and I tagged along with him so whilst he worked the 10 hours and 25-minute flight, I worked my way through 3 movies and had a nap (for anyone with a hectic lifestyle, I am sure you can appreciate what a luxury this was). I am a self-confessed ‘planner’ so

5 tips for travelling with kids

19 March 2019

I love travel! I love adventure! I love exploring new places off the beaten track! I love eating new food! I love it all! I also love travelling with my kids (and husband, mustn't forget him... he is very good at pushing the suitcase trolley)! I had a very lucky childhood with regular trips over to Cairo to stay with my Grandparents who lived there. I never fully appreciated the experiences
