Travel Inspiration

“My love of travel truly started as a product manager for Greece and Turkey. I remember on my first trip to Turkey, the exact moment I was in a hot air balloon, silently rising above the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia, I knew working in the travel industry was my destiny. I have since visited Turkey at least 12 times. As my two daughters have grown into young adults,
being able to share our adventures together has been so special. Recently returning from India, this has further ignited my sense of discovery. Having visited over 60 countries and 57% of the world, I have an incredible passion for travel, meeting people and learning about
their cultures and way of life, this inspires me every day to continue my journey.“

Travel Inspiration

“I caught the travel bug on my first trip overseas when I was 17, for the next ten years, I would work hard, but save harder for my next adventure. After having children, personal travel was not as frequent (flights are expensive with four children), but I’ve always got a trip on the horizon. I often have to pinch myself when I travel for work – we’re so lucky to be able to travel to such incredible places and call it work! I couldn’t imagine being in any other industry.“

Travel Inspiration

“Lucky for me, it was my first job in the Tourism Industry that gave me the opportunity to experience other countries and cultures which developed my love for travel. I became hungry to explore parts of the world I had not seen before and found a deep love and connection for Asia, in particular Vietnam. My first visit was in 2005, my honeymoon, and my husband and I spent six fabulous weeks travelling around Vietnam, vowing one day we would bring our children back to experience this alluring South East Asian country. We fulfilled our promise in 2014!“
