Why I Love Travel
The places I see and the people I meet—travel truly is the best way to broaden the mind. It allows you to experience and learn from different cultures and walks of life. Life is short; travel often.
My Travel Tips
- If you are always early, you are never late.
- Pre-book as much as possible before departure and schedule rest days on longer trips.
- Live courageously—100% of the opportunities you don’t take are missed.
My Top Three Favourite Destinations
Italy
The food, history, people, dramatic coastlines, and mountains—Italy deserves a place on everyone’s bucket list.
USA
With its extraordinary diversity of cultures and experiences, you could spend a lifetime exploring the United States and still not see it all.
Patagonia
Challenging to reach, but the dramatic landscapes that greet you make every moment of the journey worthwhile.
What’s in My Suitcase

I spend my days designing holidays within New Zealand, Australia, the South Pacific and Asia, and I absolutely love arranging cruise holidays. Working with you to create your perfect getaway is what I enjoy the most, so bring me your dream holiday, and we can build it together! Leave me to focus on the details, so that you can relax and have your best adventure yet!

House of Travel Whanganui
After three years in the travel industry, my passion for travel continues to grow - from cultural experiences and unforgettable food to exciting adventures and relaxing escapes. What I enjoy most is helping turn my clients travel dreams into reality.
Travel has been part of my life since I was three years old, and those early experiences sparked a passion that has continued to grow over the years. In 2021, I completed my Level 4 Certificate in Tourism, Airline and Flight Attending, which opened the door to my career in travel.
I'm excited to discover new destinations and help others do the same!
