A massive thank you to everyone who has contacted me so far this month - I am working on a lot of enquiries and getting quotes out to you :)

For those of you who aren't sure about reaching out and unsure about exactly how I work or why you should use me to book your holiday, I thought I'd post a little bit of information. I know from the feedback I've had from clients that they were initially unsure about this - most popular misconception is that booking with me would cost more as you would be paying for my service (hint: it doesn't, and you aren't!).

Have a look at the images below for more information on how it works and why you should book with me. Don't hesitate to get in touch if you want more information or if you want me to start planning your next holiday.
