Sunrise, sunset & starlight on the Great Barrier Reef

Australia

Underwater View Of Kids Snorkelling

The Great Barrier Reef (one of the 7 wonders of the Natural World) needs no introduction. A World Heritage playground just waiting to be explored - experience it above and below the water. Charter a luxury yacht with expert crew, sail your own catamaran or enjoy an all inclusive cruise.

Jump on board a scenic helicopter flight or for something quite incredible, dive beneath the surface or sleep under the sea. Spend a magical night aboard Reefsuite and have a front row seat to the dazzling underwater world, trust us this could be the most memorable night’s sleep you ever have.

I'm so excited to be back working in travel and would love the chance to talk travel with you!

Travel to me is about saying 'yes!' to all new experiences, immersing yourself in the culture and creating memories.

With experience in multiple areas of the industry, a secret plane nerd and a love of organising and planning I can help you turn your ideas into a reality with matched enthusiasm and excitement!

Why I love travel: 

Travelling takes us out of our comfort zone and inspires us to experience new things that we otherwise wouldn't in our normal day to day lives. It enriches your life from meeting new people from all walks of life, trying new food from different corners of the world, and humbles you to appreciate the small things in life. 


My travel tips: 

  • Always have travel insurance
  • Wake up early - whether it be to see the sunrise, or to skip a queue, or get a coffee at the local café. 
  • Make a list of the things you want to experience and pre book as much as you can. 
  • Stay local with everything easily accessible on foot. 


My top 5 favourite destinations: 

  • Italy - rolling hills and crystal blue waters, stunning villages and cathedrals, amazing food and wine. 
  • South Africa - rich cultural experiences, amazing wildlife on safari, breath-taking landscapes. 
  • Croatia - stunning beaches and unbelievable landscapes from the islands in the Adriatic to the Krka National Park. 
  • Mexico - amazing food, fascinating Mayan culture, stunning beaches, and fabulous architecture from ancient temples to the colonial cathedrals. 
  • Canada - my birth land! The people, the rich forests, lakes, mountains and wildlife. 


What's in my suitcase: 

  • First Aid kit as you can never be too prepared. 
  • Travel Diary - make an effort to write down the highlights of your day, you will look back in appreciation. 
  • Sarong or thin, long scarf - will come in handy as a towel or to cover your shoulders when need be. 
  • Small change of local currency - whether it be to buy a bottle of water or a quick snack or to leave a tip.
