Born in France, I moved to New Zealand in 2019.
Passionate in travel, I explored Europe from a young age, then decided to go a bit further with my backpack, first in Vietnam for a month, then in New Zealand for a year (that is when I fell in love with Aotearoa).
I started to work in the travel industry by organising safari trips in Tanzania, where I went several times as a tour leader.
Discovering new places, countries, cultures is an amazing way to create memories, that is why I love helping clients to organise their holiday.
There is nothing more satisfying to me than a client popping in store after their journey to tell me all about the adventures they've had.

For a long time, I've told people I have the best job in the world and I still stand by that.
What could be better than turning peoples dreams into reality? I never know what the day will bring and isn't variety the spice of life?
My travel journey started a bit later in my life, so I haven't been everywhere YET, but I am having a damn good crack at it, gathering local knowledge along the way.
