Travel has been an integral part of my life for over 20 years, and I can't imagine pursuing anything else.  This year, I proudly celebrate my 17th year with House of Travel Papamoa, where I truly love being a 'hottie.' Our store boasts a fantastic team culture that makes coming to work a joyful experience every day.

I find immense satisfaction in crafting bespoke itineraries that transform my clients' dreams into reality.  While the USA remains my favourite destination, my travels have also taken me through the stunning landscapes of New Zealand, the enchanting South Pacific, vibrant Australia, diverse Europe, and picturesque Canada and Alaska. This year (2024), I had the incredible opportunity to experience the magic of South Africa, where witnessing wildlife in their natural habitat is nothing short of breath-taking. Being on safari brings you so close to majestic animals, just meters away, creating unforgettable memories. 

Remember, your holiday begins the moment you step through our door. I invite you to share your vision of the perfect getaway—how it looks and feels, any research you've conducted, and your essential must-haves. The more we delve into your aspirations together, the more extraordinary your holiday will be!

Being a friendly and bubbly person, I appreciate spending time with my clients building their dream holidays, listening and paying attention to their needs to create special memories. Let me help you discover the world the way that you would like to.

I feel so fortunate to be a part of this wonderful travel industry that I am so enthusiastic about and find that my passion to help others shows when working in my happy place.

I have travelled through Europe with Contiki in my early 20's which was such a wonderful way to get a taste for the European culture and food, opening my mind to Europe's uniqueness. In 2023 I travelled to London to watch an All Blacks game at Twickenham Stadium which was absolutely fantastic, then completed a Trafalgar tour of England and Scotland. I was so blown away by the historic palaces and magnificent landmarks as well as iconic attractions.

Recently I was in Central Europe and embarked on a Scenic River cruise from Budapest through Vienna and Bratislava on the Danube. Cruising through the European waterways being inspired by the picture-postcard villages and castles. It was like being in a dream. If you have ever thought of doing a European River cruise, I highly recommend it. Come see me to have a chat about this incredible way of travelling as well as giving you some tips and insights before you go.

Selling river and ocean cruises is a passion of mine. It is such an easy way to travel. Unpacking once, having food included as well as entertainment. Why would you not love to travel like this.

I love Asia and the wonderful people, culture and food you experience in these destinations. I have been to Bali, travelled through Cambodia and the South to North of Vietnam, as well as parts of Eastern Canada and New York. I cruised Alaska which I absolutely loved and have had many trips to different parts of Australia, South Pacific, Asia and South Africa.

My favourite country would have to be Cambodia, where I thoroughly enjoyed meeting the locals, travelling this beautiful country, and experiencing the local food. Waking up at 5am to have a cup of tea whilst watching the sun rising over Angkor Wat as the local monks walked past. It was a magical moment and one that will be engraved in my mind forever.

I can’t wait to meet with you to discuss your individual travel enquiries.
