My travel bug which began straight out of year 12 (more than 30 years ago) wasn't passed down from my parents who didn't get their first passports until I was 27 but my husband and I have certainly passed it on to our two children who are both already onto their 3rd passports.

I've been asked many times “where is your favourite place to travel” and quite simply, it's impossible to answer - there are too many! I have been fortunate over my 30 years in the travel industry to travel extensively and my favourite memories are the experiences I had or the people I met, for example, sampling caviar and vodka in Russia, handing out packets of pencils to underprivileged children. These experiences create feelings that linger long after you return home and that's what I want to bring to all my clients.
