Soft adventure, engaging with people from other cultures, enjoying wonderful meals with new-found friends: that is the type of experience I love providing for my guests. I became a travel advisor simply because of my own love of travel: I had visited Japan, New Zealand, Germany, France, Italy and the Czech Republic when I became an advisor 10 years ago. I truly believe soft adventure – walking, hi

king, and cycling – is a wonderful way to experience a destination at a human pace. I’m here to help organize all of that for you, and plan a custom itinerary that “ticks all the boxes,” whether it’s cooking classes, a cycling tour as gentle or as challenging as you wish, or retreating to a centuries’ old villa, taking day hikes through jaw-dropping scenery. If you prefer, I’m happy to connect you with a small group tour where you’ll be travelling with like-minded people from around the world. I should add that quite a number of my guests are solo female travellers who have come to trust my advice and judgement. And it has opened a whole new world for them. Wellbeing – the state of being comfortable, healthy or happy (or even better, all three!) is important for a “successful” vacation, which is why I take the time to find out your priorities, experiences and dreams. For a stress-free experience, I create seamless itineraries - and thanks to the UMapped app combine not only every element of your trip (flights, transfers, hotel or cruise ship access), and also allow you access to destination information and weather, plus flight notifications.

You asked, and Virgin Voyages listened — they extended 70% off a 2nd Sailor on all sailings for a limited time so you can extend the vibes of summer for the rest of the year.
Plus, book the Limited View Sea Terrace for the price of The Sea View on most voyages in 2025 and 2026 — because hammock views (and savings) are a big deal. Especially when this upgrade scores you up to $325 in extra savings — on top of over $1,000 of Always Included Luxuries and flexible booking policies that never cost extra. It’s (always) the luxury you deserve and no nickel and diming... ever.
