Jessica’s travel adventures began when she left home at 18 to live in the UK for two years. Since then, she has travelled far and wide, visiting almost 30 countries. This gives her a range of first-hand experiences to draw upon when trading travel ideas with her clients, offering insights and options they might not have thought possible.
Her favourite destination among the many she has visited is New Orleans, where she says the history, culture, night-life, costumed parades and street parties set it apart.
When it comes to travel styles, Jessica is something of a cruise expert. Her number one piece of advice for anyone considering a cruise is to book a balcony cabin. “I love relaxing on my private balcony, I could watch the waves for hours. It's also amazing to watch the sunset with a cocktail in hand or enjoying your morning coffee”, she says.
However, her advice, like her expertise, covers a broad range of holiday styles and destinations. No matter what kind of holiday you enjoy or where you travel to she suggests you take the time to immerse yourself in the destination. There's nothing like people watching along the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, or soaking up the history and beauty of the Sistine Chapel before settling down to eat pizza across the road from the Colosseum.
When asked what she loves about her role as a travel advisor, she says she loves learning something new nearly every day.
Testimonials
Jess at Albany creek always goes out of her way to give me the best deals. She is more like a friend then a travel agent as she is so friendly. Her staff are also always willing to help when she is not there. I have moved to Bribie Island but will still book my holidays with Albany Creek.
I have a very dear friend who is dying. Her only wish was to have a cruise experience no matter how short. I spoke to Jessica explaining it needed to be within a small budget and short time frame. She went out of her way to try and find something suitable, but found nothing available. She didn't give up and stayed in contact until she found a suitable cruise and went out on a limb to ensure my friend got on, as there were an especially limited number of cabins available at the price. Jess assured a dying lady's only lifetime wish came true. Although they will never meet she gave her something to remember and help her through a difficult time. I highly recommend her for her compassion, kindness and willingness to go above and beyond.
