About me

In planning my trips and itineraries, I came to realise that I love researching and designing my breaks and holidays as much as I love taking them. For me, creating the trip gives me the same excitement as the actual travel experience, making my head buzz, full of expectation about what my friends and I will discover.  On reflection, this shouldn’t have been such a surprise. I started planning trips from an early age, from class trips in my high school, to family vacations, and later weekend getaways, hikes and holidays with friends. 

Travelling is also a therapy for me. I learn a lot about myself through my experiences and from seeing life through a different lens. For example, on a recent picnic in the Swiss alps, surrounded by the mountains, nature and calmness, it reminded me just how small and vulnerable we are. At the same time, I was filled with joy to realise just how much beauty we are surrounded by when we take the time to look. By contrast, when visiting Tanzania to climb mount Kilamanjero, I was humbled when seeing how the locals lived. After my trek I was physically and mentally exhausted and took time out to visit a local village. When I saw their conditions, community, and how they embraced life, it gave me a fresh perspective on my own life and some of the smaller things that I had been overlooking. They were so grateful for every opportunity and cared for me and my fellow travellers with such open hearts, it taught me a lot about how we can work together and support others, and embrace every opportunity with a smile.  Today, I’m grateful that travel has become my entire world, spanning my personal life and my work. I love preparing a range of different trips for you, each one offering a new experience. Many of them have been born from the daydreams I had while working in my corporate job, and counting down the hours to the weekend when I could escape to the lakes, mountains or cities.
