Hong Kong has it all!
Hong Kong really does have it all. Whether you're looking for a city break, beach holiday, cultural experience, family theme park, shopping trip or foodie heaven. I have been fortunate enough to visit this amazing place many times, as a singleton, as a couple and this time as a family and on each visit, I've experienced something completely different.

Spectacular Singapore
Having travelled on my own to Singapore every six months for the past 20 years I decided it was time to share it with my children. They'd seen my pictures, heard my stories, and so when I told them we were going they screamed with delight and set about making their "to do" list. First on the list was a stay at the Marina Bay Sands for a chance to swim in THAT pool. The hotel opened two days bef

Less than four hours flight from Perth it seemed lik

Sunsets in Cyprus
For me there are very few things more relaxing than watching the sun set. So much so that one of my main criteria for holiday accommodation is a west facing outdoor space. I am fastidious about it and spend hours finding, enquiring, confirming and reconfirming just to make sure! One of my favourite European destinations, not just for sunsets but for many other reasons is Cyprus. My love for th

Sun and Souks in Marrakech
Marrakech has been on my to do list for years now but with a less than enthusiastic husband, I decided to take matters into my own hands and use my 40th birthday as an excuse to book a weekend away for myself and four friends. So five mums, left 10 kids (not home alone I hasten to add) and flew to one of Morocco’s most famous cities for some rest, relaxation and a little bit of shopping! Wit

Personalised service. Always
When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call.
