Specialised Escapes

I have over six years of experience being self-employed, and I recently transitioned into the travel industry as a travel agent — a move that feels like a natural progression given my lifelong passion for travel.

Growing up, I was fortunate to travel extensively with my parents, who were avid travelers themselves. From holidays across Europe to adventures in India, Cuba, and America, I developed a deep appreciation for exploring new cultures and destinations from a young age. That passion only grew stronger after university, when I backpacked around Australia — an experience that truly ignited my love for independent travel. Since then, I’ve made it a goal to visit somewhere new every year.

Now, as a full-time carer for my daughter, homeworking offers the flexibility I need to balance work and family life. Becoming a travel agent has allowed me to combine my personal experience and passion for travel with a career that fits my lifestyle. I love helping others create meaningful journeys, just as I’ve enjoyed my own over the years.

What I love most about working in the travel industry is helping people turn their travel dreams into reality. Travel has played such an important role in my own life — from childhood holidays with my family to solo adventures around the world — and being able to share that excitement and knowledge with others is incredibly rewarding.

I enjoy getting to know clients, understanding what kind of experience they’re looking for, and then creating something truly special for them. Whether it’s a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, a family getaway, or a bucket list trip, it’s amazing to play a part in creating memories that will last forever.
Plus, the travel industry is constantly evolving, so there’s always something new to learn — new destinations, trends, and experiences — which keeps the job exciting and inspiring every day

Speciality Areas

My specialty is accessible holidays, as I understand firsthand how challenging they can be to plan. Through personal experience with my own family, I’ve spent countless hours researching everything from special assistance at airports and flying with oxygen, to traveling with a wheelchair user, sourcing specialist equipment, and finding truly accessible accommodation.

Because of this, I’m passionate about helping families like mine enjoy stress-free holidays that are thoughtfully planned around their specific needs — so they can focus on what really matters: making memories together.
I love to book destinations where I can offer personal recommendations because it allows me to add real value to my clients’ travel experiences. Having visited many places myself — from Europe to India, Cuba, America, and Australia — I can share insider tips, tried-and-tested activities, accessible options, and hidden gems that you don’t always find in brochures.

Whether it’s the best time to visit, family-friendly excursions, or accommodations that cater to specific needs, I enjoy helping clients plan with confidence. It’s incredibly rewarding to take the guesswork out of travel and ensure they feel supported from the moment they start planning to the moment they return home.

My Personal Favourite Destination

My personal favourite destination is Fraser Island in Australia — it’s still the most breathtaking place I’ve ever visited. From its crystal-clear freshwater lakes to endless stretches of white sand and rich wildlife, it truly feels like a slice of paradise. The connection to nature there is unlike anywhere else.
Cuba comes a very close second. I fell in love with its vibrant culture, colourful streets, beautiful beaches, and the warmth of its people.
I’ve always been drawn to the sea and the beach, and both of these destinations offer that perfect mix of postcard-worthy scenery, fascinating culture, and natural beauty. They’re the kind of places that stay with you long after you’ve returned home.

Why should you book with me?

Customers should choose to book with me because I combine professional service with real, lived experience — especially when it comes to accessible travel and family holidays. I understand how important it is for everything to run smoothly, because I’ve been on the other side of it: researching, planning, and navigating travel with specific needs in mind.

I take the time to truly understand what my clients are looking for, and I go the extra mile to create personalised, stress-free holidays tailored to their needs. Whether it’s finding accessible accommodation, arranging special assistance, or recommending hidden gems based on my own travels, I’m here to make the whole process easier and more enjoyable.

With me, you get more than just a booking — you get support, understanding, and a travel experience designed with care.
