It's Nice To Meet You
Nestled on Cornwall’s rugged north coast, I share life’s adventures with my husband, a pilot whose routes often take him to the Isles of Scilly and the Channel Islands, and our two children. Surrounded by wild coastline and big skies, I am constantly reminded of the power of a place to inspire, restore and stay with you long after you return home. It is that same feeling I aim to create for my clients, particularly in the destinations that have captured my heart most deeply: New Zealand and Australia.
My love of travel began early, shaped by parents with a strong sense of adventure. A round‑the‑world journey took me through the Far East, Australia, America and, most memorably, a month exploring New Zealand by campervan in the depths of winter. Waking up to snow‑capped peaks, empty roads and star‑filled skies ignited a lifelong passion for these two remarkable countries and I have returned to them at every opportunity ever since.
Although I specialise in New Zealand and Australia, my experience is firmly rooted in extensive worldwide travel. I have spent four months exploring India and Nepal, immersing myself in their vibrant cultures, landscapes and traditions, as well as spending time across the United States, the Indian Ocean and Europe. This breadth of global experience gives me a wider perspective when designing trips, so even when we are focusing on New Zealand or Australia, your itinerary is shaped with a deep understanding of how to create a truly exceptional long‑haul journey.
With over 25 years of experience in the travel industry, I have devoted much of my career to creating extraordinary journeys across New Zealand, Australia and the South Pacific. I have spent extensive time on the ground, from road‑tripping New Zealand’s South Island and discovering hidden wineries and coastal walks, to exploring Australia’s diverse regions: its vibrant cities, reef‑fringed coasts, wilderness lodges and remote outback. This first‑hand knowledge allows me to design itineraries that go far beyond the obvious, weaving together iconic highlights with special places you might never find on your own.
I am proud to be accredited as both a ‘100% Pure New Zealand Specialist’ and an ‘Aussie Specialist’, recognition of my deep, up‑to‑date destination expertise. Whether you are dreaming of a self‑drive adventure through New Zealand, a luxury lodge retreat, a family campervan holiday, an island escape on the Great Barrier Reef, or a multi‑stop tour combining Australia, New Zealand and the wider South Pacific, I can offer authentic insight, honest advice and thoughtful recommendations tailored to you.
Travel is deeply personal, and I believe your journey should feel as unique as you are. I take the time to understand what truly matters to you: your pace, your interests, your non‑negotiables. From carefully chosen boutique stays and characterful B&Bs to handpicked experiences such as wildlife encounters, wine tastings, scenic flights and guided walks, every detail is considered to create a seamless, enriching and memorable trip.
My service goes far beyond simply booking a holiday. You will have my support at every stage, from our first conversation to your return home, and I am on hand while you are away should anything unexpected arise. Your travel plans are fully protected for complete peace of mind, so you can relax and focus on enjoying the journey.
There are no call centres or long waits on hold. You will always have a direct line to someone who knows you, understands your plans and genuinely cares about your experience. Whether this is your first long‑haul trip, or a return visit to explore deeper, it would be a pleasure to help you make the most of every moment.
If you are ready to start planning your next tailor‑made journey, whether a once‑in‑a‑lifetime adventure, a short break or an inspiring escape in Europe, I would be delighted to chat.
Contact me today to begin crafting a journey you will remember for a lifetime.
