It's Nice To Meet You
Hi, I’m Shona, and for the last 10 years travel hasn’t just been my hobby, it has been my life.
Having worked for one of the UK’s largest tour operators, I have spent a decade immersed in the travel industry: working overseas, truly living the local life rather than just passing through. I have scouted resorts, navigated the logistics and uncovered the best kept secrets you won’t find in a standard search engine.
After moving back to the UK, I continued my career at a major tour operator’s head office, gaining valuable insight into how holidays are created behind the scenes. But I missed that personal connection, so I traded the corporate world for a more personal approach and chose to focus on what I am truly passionate about: designing unforgettable, tailor‑made holidays for my clients.
Today, I use my first‑hand experience and insider knowledge to plan every detail of your trip, from the big decisions to the little touches that make it feel special. I take away the stress, listen carefully to what really matters to you and create a holiday that feels as though it has been designed just for you.
Holidays are not one size fits all. Your time away is precious and well deserved, and I am here to make sure you get exactly what you want from it: a perfectly planned escape that you can simply relax and enjoy.
Booking with me means you’re backed by the Travel Counsellor community: full financial protection and 24/7 support for total peace of mind.
Here to help you turn “one day we should go there” into “we are so glad we did”.

Tailor-made for you
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. I’ll listen to your thoughts and ideas like I would a friend and arrange accommodation, activities, and flights that are all personalised to you. And I’ll share my personal tips and recommendations, so you can experience the true beauty of each destination.
Stress-free travel, and more time for what matters most
I believe your time away should be stress-free, easy, and seamless from start to finish. So, I take care of all the details for you - from ATOL protection, insurance, and flexible payments to access to the myTC app, which keeps everything in one place.

If the unexpected happens, you can rest easy, knowing that I’ll handle any last-minute changes, flight cancellations, or disruptions before you even pick up the phone. So you always feel happy, carefree, and ready to make the most of every moment.
