Buckle up for a Southern USA Musical Roadie!

USA

When you think of the all-American road trip, ‘getting your kicks on Route 66’, instantly springs to mind. But set off on an adventure of the toetapping kind, enjoy a musical pilgrimage to the heart of jazz, blues and rock ‘n’ roll.

Your epic road trip starts in New Orleans, where even the street performers possess more talent than your average mainstream musician. But then, this is the Deep South and you’re in the realm of the legendary greats. Explore the birthplace of jazz, then head to Memphis and visit Graceland, Elvis Presley’s former home and Sun Studio, where he recorded his first record.

For modern vibes, Beale Street remains the premiere hangout for musical prodigies. And in Nashville you’ll find plenty of country music for a last hurrah, before heading home.

With over 40 years of travel experience, including 30 years living and working in the USA, I’ve developed a deep passion for showcasing the beauty and diversity of the United States. But my love of travel goes far beyond that. Travel is not just a career for me—it's a lifelong journey that has shaped my understanding of the world and its many cultures.

I thrive on helping my clients discover unique, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and I have a special fondness for authentic, remote locations that offer a genuine connection to the culture and landscape. My adventures have taken me to the vast sands of Morocco and Egypt, where I’ve explored ancient ruins and vibrant markets. I’ve trekked the Inca Trail in Peru and hiked to Everest Base Camp in Nepal, experiencing firsthand the stunning landscapes and welcoming communities. Cuba’s lively streets and rich history also hold a special place in my heart.

Whether it’s trekking through the mountains of Nepal or uncovering hidden gems in Peru, I love guiding travellers to places that offer more than just sightseeing—they offer a chance to truly connect with the world. I find great joy in helping my clients turn their dream holidays into reality, whether they’re after iconic landmarks or remote locations that are rich in culture and adventure.

Through my work as a travel agent, I create experiences that go beyond the ordinary, helping travellers discover not only new places but new perspectives. Let me help you craft a journey that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.

I really do have a passion for travel especially visiting new destinations. 

I very rarely spend my holidays at home. I'm usually on a plane with husband Mike - suitcases over packed as usual. 

We enjoy being active on holiday - walking 800 kms across Spain on the Camino, biking through Latvia and Estonia. 

I equally enjoy a good beach holiday such as Santorini, Fiji and Queensland. 

We also manage to fit in visiting children and grandchildren in London, Hong Kong and Sydney.

I've spent the majority of my working career in some form of the travel industry and have returned to my happy place of working face-to-face with clients. It brings the most joy when I see the excitement on their face and I have the responsibility to live up to and exceed their expectations. But travel is now ever- changing, volatile and can throw up surprises at a moments notice. Having your travel consultant in your back pocket from start to finish, can give you reassurance you will not be left on your own, even if you do get stranded!
