Asia with Windstar Cruises

Windstar’s Asia sailings are a world apart from the big cruise lines. They offer something refreshingly different—smaller ships, more time in port, and cool turnarounds in places like Phuket, Bangkok and Vietnam. These aren’t your typical fly-in-fly-out itineraries; they’re thoughtfully crafted journeys that let you see more, stay longer, and go off the beaten path. Available from October 2026 to March 2027, these cruises are ideal for travellers who prefer a more relaxed pace and a deeper connection with the destination.

Expect spacious suites, open-air lounges and a relaxed onboard atmosphere tailored to curious, independent travellers.

Travel has been a part of my life since I was three years old, those early experiences sparked a love for travel that has only grown over time. In 2021, I achieved a Level 4 Certificate in Tourism, Airline and Flight Attending which opened the door that brought me into the world of travel.

I’m excited to discover new destinations and help others do the same

Hi, I’m Sarah—a Matamata local with a passion for making your travel dreams come true!

With over nine years of experience as a travel consultant, I specialise in creating personalised journeys that leave lasting memories. Working remotely from Matamata, I combine local charm with global expertise, bringing the world right to your doorstep.

Travel is not just my profession—it’s my passion. As an avid explorer, I’ve fallen in love with some incredible destinations. London has captured my heart with its royal landmarks, from the grandeur of Buckingham Palace to the storied Tower of London. Navigating the city on the iconic Underground is a breeze, making every corner of this vibrant city accessible. As a lifelong Harry Potter fan, visiting the Cotswolds and exploring filming locations like Lacock Abbey Cloisters (aka Hogwarts!) was pure magic.

In Asia, my adventures have taken me to many countries, but the Philippines stands out. Swimming with whale sharks and soaking up the island vibes were unforgettable experiences. It’s a destination rich in culture, beauty, and value—a must-see!

When it’s time to unwind, I love nothing more than a relaxing resort holiday. Picture this: a good book, a cocktail in hand, and the laid-back charm of the South Pacific. As a new mum, I’ve developed a knack for finding the best family-friendly resorts. Our recent family holiday to Fiji was a dream! We stayed at the Outrigger, and it was absolutely faBULAous—perfect for little ones and parents alike.

Whether you’re craving a peaceful beach retreat, an exhilarating adventure, or a family escape, I’m here to make it happen. My goal? To craft a travel experience tailored just for you, full of unforgettable moments and stress-free planning.

Let’s turn your travel dreams into reality. Life’s short—let’s make sure your story is one worth watching.
