What special trips these lovely clients have planned for the Christmas holidays. I hope they have the most wonderful time.

14 years ago Today, I took a leap of faith.
I decided to leave a secure job, and decided to start my own travel consultancy in partnership with TravelManagers Australia.
In that time, I have had the privilege of serving my clients and being a small part of making their travel memories.
The hugest thank you to all my clients who trust me with their Travel designing, booking and management, I never take it for granted.
Here is to many more years and adventures together!

It appears it is not just me gushing about this beautiful ship!

Here is my take on Silversea's latest ship with all its amenities, restaurants, and other luxurious inclusions.

14/12/2024

Last week I had the privilege of sailing on Silversea’s brand new ship, Silver Nova from Sydney to Melbourne with my mum!

With just 728 privileged guests, Silver Nova offers a journey that is intimate, luxurious, and truly unforgettable. From the first moment onboard, you’ll feel as though you’re part of something extraordinary.

We were nearly at capacity and yet there was always a feeling of space, peace and a beautiful place to sit and enjoy the ship your way.

My favourite thing was there was always a cosy and comfortable place to be, alongside beautiful artworks showcased everywhere. Truly a floating Art gallery.

An almost one-to-one staff-to-guest ratio ensures your every need is met before you even realize it. Our suite has its own butler, Raj & attendant Jose, who made sure we were well taken care of.

The food was next level! From incredible sushi & Sashimi at Kaiseki, to the best steak I’ve ever had at Atlantide. Their S.A.L.T programme - Sea and Land Taste, appears in SALT kitchen, SALT lab and SALT bar and connects you with your destination showcasing local produce.

The Marquee, with their beautiful wood fired pizzas would have you be the most stunning space on the ship with beautiful
light patterned and playing across the space.

Silver Nova is a Class Above. With stunning floor-to-ceiling glass walls and elegant glass elevators, the spaces are light and bright and it gives such a connection to the ocean and the destination whilst you are in port.

Ready to see the world from a whole new perspective and experience the luxury the Silversea way? Let’s plan your unforgettable journey on Silver Nova today!




Thank you to for use of some of your wonderful photos

Last week, I had the privilege of sailing on the beautiful Silversea Silver Nova out of Sydney!

Here is a great article by Sally MacMillan that perfectly sums up our experience, and you may even spy a familiar face!

On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

A White Christmas in 2025 for the whole family!

Dreaming of snow on Christmas Day?
Give Finland’s magic, a world away.
Next year’s season, pure and bright,
A frosty wonderland, dressed in white.

Reindeer rides through snowy trees,
Northern Lights dance on icy seas.
Cosy cabins, fires that glow,
A White Christmas in the snow.

Santa’s village, where dreams come true,
A holiday gift that’s unique and new.
Wrap up the North, a gift so grand,
A White Christmas awaits in Finland!

Wow what a adventure this would be. Contact me today for more information via email [email protected]

On the eighth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me,
a Trip to Bali for the whole family!
This Christmas, ditch the frantic pace,
And gift a trip to a tropical place.

Bali’s calling, with golden sands,
Palm trees swaying, adventure planned.

Lush green rice fields, sunsets divine,
Poolside cocktails, a moment to unwind.
Markets to wander, temples to see,
A holiday where the soul feels free.

Bali.... what a delightful easy holiday you are. If this sounds like a great place for yourself email me at [email protected] for more info.

From Seminyak vibes to Ubud’s calm,
Bali’s magic is a soothing balm.
Wrap up paradise, say goodbye to stress,
A Bali escape is the ultimate gift of rest!

Three coconuts,
Two paddleboards,
And a Fijian sunset by the sea!

Fiji.... you had me at a swaying hammock. If this sounds like a perfect holiday for you email me today at [email protected]
