About Me
Planning a holiday is fun but organising it can sometimes be time consuming and confusing. My passion is to help people have the best possible time when they are travelling. Using my years of experience to make sure everything comes together effortlessly I’ll make sure you get to include all the “must do and see” experiences. Let me take care of all the details so all YOU need to do is relax and enjoy yourself!
I’ve been in travel over 30 years and have travelled extensively throughout the world. All that travel means I’ve picked up loads of great ideas, including helpful hints on everything from best travel routes, itinerary design and content, what clothes to pack and even how best to keep in touch with family or business back home.
After 21 years leading the team at House of Travel Johnsonville, I decided to make the move to become a personal travel manager. This gives me more time to concentrate on my clients and designing the perfect itinerary. I am well supported by Nic Sperring who is always on hand if I’m out of the country.
I feel very blessed to have a career that combines my own personal passion for travel with the opportunity to help make the travel dreams of my clients come true.
Let me look after your next holiday so I can apply all my experience to create one of your most memorable experiences ever.
