My love for travel started early – growing up in Cornwall, I was lucky to go on regular overseas adventures with my family, and that spark never left me. After spending a season skiing in the French Alps, I quickly found myself chasing new horizons again, this time across the globe in New Zealand. I ended up staying for over two years, falling in love with the lifestyle – winters on the slopes and summers spent hiking, paddle-boarding and kayaking through breathtaking fjords.
These days, even though I’m back in the UK, I’m constantly on the move – taking countless trips every year to explore both well-known favourites and off-the-beaten-path gems across Europe (and beyond!). I can’t get enough! And that’s exactly the passion I bring to planning unforgettable journeys for my clients!
My most memorable trip
Corfu
I absolutely loved taking a boat out for the day from the harbour in Kassiopi, Corfu. There are so many beautiful hidden coves that can only be found by boat or by foot. It is a great way to explore the island and venture into some quaint taverns to meet the locals and taste the incredible fresh fish!
On my bucket list
Gorilla Trekking
I would absolutely love to explore more of Africa. More specifically Rwanda. I can't imagine how magical it would feel to trek for a few days, tracking down the mountain gorillas and getting to witness them in their natural habitat. I've also heard that the Akagera national park in Rwanda has one of the highest densities of hippos and hippos have been my favourite animal since I was able to talk!

My favourite trip
Scandinavian Winter Adventure
This trip looks absolutely incredible. It encompasses Finland (Lapland), Norway and Sweden in 12 days. It's full of activities including snow-shoeing, dog-sledding and ice-dining. I have always wanted to see the Northern Lights as well and on this trip, they take you to a remote area in Lapland and even set you up with a tripod and DSLR camera to capture the moment!
Best destination for families
Greece
I think Greece is an incredible destination for families. With the island hopping options, it is really tricky for children to get bored because there is always something different to see and do. Greece is also fantastic for water parks and theme parks which always makes for a fun day out for the whole family. So for children, Greece is great and I actually think it's a fantastic choice for parents and older children too. There are so many fun options for those who enjoy a more active lifestyle, such as hiking, water-skiing, snorkelling etc.
My top tips
If the only luxury you're lacking is time, consider using trains wherever possible. Some of the scenery you can enjoy from the train is amazing
To really get the best of your eating experience in Europe, ask our concierge team and the locals where they eat - rather than the tourist hot spots
Early bird gets the worm! Try and beat the crowds and wake up earlier for those morning excursions and tours
Learn how to say 'please' and 'thank you' in the language of the country you're travelling to. You'd be amazed how much this is appreciated
