I have been working in the travel industry for 10 years now, something that was never planned, I stumbled across my first travel job as I liked the sound of selling holidays to Orlando, a destination that I had been twice previously and absolutely loved. I found being a personal travel manager very natural, by doing something I really enjoy and getting to talk to people about holidays and travel all day is an absolute pleasure.

I have been extremely lucky to have travelled to some of the most beautiful places in the world, Malaysia, Singapore, Bali, The Amalfi Coast and my personal favourite - Mykonos, as well as spending nearly a year living and travelling around Australia. My bucket list destination is Safari in South Africa, something I have wanted to do from a very young age. I am always looking to explore new destinations and to share my experience with my clients.


My hand luggage essentials are…  ear phones, glasses and a spare pair of contact lenses

The first song on my travel playlist is… California Dreamin’ 

After dark, I like to…  relax

My desert island item is… my brush 

Number one on my bucket list is… safari in South Africa

My ideal travel companion would be… my wife 

Quick Fire

• Family fun or a few days with the lads/girls? You can't beat a lads holiday

 

• Detox or drinks? Depends on the mood and the weather!

 

• Spa treatment or sightseeing? Sightseeing, I like to look around when I go away
