This week I’m celebrating 10 years in partnership with TravelManagers Australia- hard to believe it’s 10 years since I backed myself and went into my own business
Since then I’ve loved creating amazing holidays for my clients - and thank them for their loyalty referrals and business over the last 10 years - their patience and compassion during Covid and coming back to me when it was over .
I love the travel industry as frustrating as it can be at times !! These photos from my very first years in travel to my most proud moments in the last 2 years - I wouldn’t do anything else and look forward to another 10 years of travel and fun with my work buddies 💕✈️✈️

Over Christmas we were very fortunate to have a week at Club Med Val Thorens in France - Club Med have ski resorts in Japan, France, Italy and Canada - being fully inclusive makes it the easiest ski holiday you will ever have! With all meals, open bar, lift tickets, 2 lessons a day to suit your ability, Kids clubs and ski school and great accommodation its a fabulous way to holiday.

Early bird pricing is going be released this week - Japan resorts first followed by European resorts - this will be the best pricing for 2025 - and based on the last 2 years Japan particularly will sell out in the next few weeks so if you are keen to Ski next season - let me know and Id be very happy to suggest the right resort for your family.
