Passionate About Travel, Dedicated to You

With years of experience in the travel and hospitality industry, I bring both expertise and a genuine passion for exploring the world to every trip I plan. As someone who believes that “travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer,” I feel incredibly lucky to have turned my love for adventure into a career.

Whether it’s uncovering hidden gems, sampling local cuisines, or soaking in diverse cultures, I’m always searching for the next unforgettable destination and I love sharing that excitement with my clients. From tailor-made packages to flights, accommodations, and unique extras, I’ll take care of the details so you can focus on enjoying your perfect getaway.

I pride myself on finding those little touches that make a trip special — the quirky, the off-the-beaten-track, the things you’ll remember long after you’re home. I also work flexible hours, including evenings and weekends, so I’m here whenever it suits you.

When you book through me, you’re not only getting personal, expert service — you’re also fully protected with ABTA and ATOL. Let’s make your next holiday unforgettable.
