Sail and snorkel the idyllic Fiji Islands

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!

With a tapestry of travel experiences across Europe and beyond, I bring knowledge and passion to my role as a Travel Consultant.

Ocean cruising and river cruising provides travellers with the opportunity to explore the world.

Solo traveller or group ? Whether you are a solo traveller, looking to connect with others, or friends and family wanting to explore together, group travel offers a unique and rewarding way to see the world.

Travel philosophy: I believe that travel is not just about visiting new places, but about immersing oneself in the local culture and cuisine to truly understand and appreciate the essence of a destination.

I am dedicated to providing exceptional service and creating memorable travel experiences for my clients.

I'm so excited to be back working in travel and would love the chance to talk travel with you!

Travel to me is about saying 'yes!' to all new experiences, immersing yourself in the culture and creating memories.

With experience in multiple areas of the industry, a secret plane nerd and a love of organising and planning I can help you turn your ideas into a reality with matched enthusiasm and excitement!
