Get to know me
What is the most amazing experience you have created for a client?
I created an amazing luxury itinerary for a family to USA recently. It was sadly their last family holiday all together and a special touch was arranging for a photographer to capture their holiday memories.
What is your number one travel tip?
Always make the most of every trip you take. Make sure there is one special moment or experience in particular that you can look back on and talk about forever.
What are your favourite destinations and why?
Europe - specifically France, Germany and Spain. The history, culture and food is incredible to experience. Bordeaux, San Sebastian and Barcelona are a must see. Ireland is another passion of mine. Green hills, horses and Guinness with the best locals. This country has so much to offer.
How do you go above and beyond for your clients?
I love my connection with my clients. Being able to stay in touch with a phone call, organise special suprises for them and passing on my experience and knowledge within the industry is what I am proud of.
