Hugo has turmed into such a velcro dog. Always has to be touching me. Mostly I love this 😂

I took my 1st solo trip abroad in 2018 to Rome And Venice. I was terrified, but inspired by the travel community of women I had found on FB and Instagram. My mantra was, ‘if they can do it, so can I.’ And, you know what, it changed my life.

That trip got me hooked on travel. Since then I’ve explored many cities in Europe and taken a bucket list tour of India. It inspired me to begin things I would never have thought possible. I created a blog called Travel, Linger, Relax aimed at supporting women over 40 in taking that step to travel, showing them safe places to go and coaching them on how to build their confidence.

Just as lockdown started I stumbled across Inteletravel and immediately joined (probably not the best time!) Although I really enjoyed the trainings, the team and the support from my upline – shout out to Karen Anderson – you’re the best 😊 I didn’t make much progress with booking travel. I think I was a bit of a ‘secret travel agent,’ only my close friends knew about it.

Then life happened and I let the opportunity slide. I trained a life coach and am currently working towards a certification as a travel coach; I began to return to thinking about the Inteletravel business opportunity. Having been a teacher, for the past 18 years, I’m at the age where I have been looking for something to help me transition out of the classroom and into semi-retirement.

I’m a great believer in the Universe putting things out there for you to take advantage of, and as I was thinking about possibly rejoining, Karen reached out to me to see how I was doing. Long story short, I decided to rejoin and I’m so pleased I have.

I have so much belief in what this company can offer. I love putting quotes together for potential clients and sharing the business opportunity with others who have the same passion for travel. I have huge goals and I’m telling the world about them – no more ‘secret travel agent’ for me!

But this opportunity is open to everyone, however we met.

If you love to travel, tonight we have a call for people who are thinking about joining the business. It will show a 10 min video that gives an overview of the business, then have a Q&A session, which would give you chance to get your questions asked.

Last time I was working a travel agent, I feel I was a bit of what they call a 'secret travel agent.' I don't think many people, other than my close circle knew I was doing it. I'm not making the same mistake this time.

Expect me to be dropping you a wee message to you all to see if I can help get you the best deal and book you your next holiday! In the UK, Europe or long haul 😁

Where would you like to go next?

Let me know in the comments below. I'm thinking about Egypt next spring...

So yesterday I let you all know that I was so excited about rejoining Inteletravel as an Independent Travel Agent.

Today I want to ask you a question.

How many times do you go on holiday, either at home or abroad?

Where are your favourite places to holiday and why?

Let me know in the comments so I can post offers and info relevant to what YOU are interested in

I'll start. This past year I have been on an epic trip to India, had a week in Marbella, and weekends in London, Bath and Yorkshire. So many great memories 💕

Lots of love ❤️

Feeling super excited.

Just rejoined my travel company, Inteletravel, as an travel agent and network marketer.

I've been watching more and more travel companies come on board since we got our ABTA & ATOL. Just this week Jet2 came on. We also do lots of UK weekend theatre breaks.

So watch this space for lots of posts with travel deals.

I'm going to be setting up a setting up a FB group for those that are interested in joining my team too, so watch out for that.

So if you'd like me to plan and book you any hols, or if you'd like to find out more about how you can become an independent travel agent and create your own remote business comment below or send me a DM and I'll get in touch 😁

I can just feel this is gonna be so much fun! Let's get travelling! 🎉🏖🏕🗽✈️

Fascinating visit to Chittogarh Fort today. It dates back to the 6th Century, covers 13km and 700acres!!
Many of the temples were destroyed by Mugals in the 16th Century, but the fort is nowadays a UNESCO Heritage site and the main sites have been restored.

On a tour of Rajasthan, make sure you visit Mandawa, famous for it's haveli painted buildings. Nestled in the heart of the Shekhawati region, and only a few hours from Bikaner, it is worth the effort to get here. Mandawa is renowned for its exquisite havelis adorned with vibrant frescoes that narrate tales of bygone eras. Stepping into this picturesque town is like entering a living canvas where history and art seamlessly converge, there's no surprise to hear it calls itself the largest outdoor museum in the world....

Safely ensconced in a car, with a driver and guide, a glass screen dividing me and the world, I traverse the city of Delhi, my jumping-off point for my tour of India. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, less by the volume of traffic, than by the seemingly lack of any rules. Three-lane roads seem to hold seven or eight vehicles. Motorcycles and tuktuks compete to squeeze through the smallest of gaps....

Today I sat and meditated in a Bahai temple shaped like a Lotus flower. How cool is that?!

As I sat in a temple 4000 miles away from my home in Shetland, I closed my eyes and felt the quiet and heard the birds singing. I felt connected and at peace. The atmosphere felt familiar.

Life and journeys are made up of moments. I'm trying to pay attention to the moments on this trip. This was definitely one I'll remember.

What moments have been memorable for you on your trips?

Just about to board my flight to India. I've been thinking about the Christopher Robin quote today about it being a really big adventure day. That's what it feels like for me, I'm going on a big adventure!

Wish me luck - here I go 😁

The Taj Mahal Why Visit India? Why visit India? was a question many of my close friends asked when I first mentioned my plan to explore this vast country. The next most common question was, 'is it safe?' I answered that question in my post, Is it Safe to Travel as a Solo Female in India? so I'm not going to write more on that topic here....

Why visit India? This post explores the reasons why I'm excited to visit India, hopefully it will inspire you to go too
