Travel is all about experiences, and food and drink form a large part of that experience. To help others plan and do something I LOVE to do.

I pride myself on matching your passions with your overall travel experience and helping you bake that perfect travel cake. Hi there, I’m Charmaine Hawke – a self-proclaimed beer lover and travel geek. I have a passion for travel, good food & beer,experience, culture and fun! Being a traveller all of my life and a people person, my logical career path was to work in the travel industry. So for 4

years I worked as a travel agent. I became a mother in 2005 and made the decision to become a Travel Broker in order to give me the flexibility of working from home and still do what I was passionate about. I also found I could offer a more personal and extensive service brokering rather than in the retail environment of a travel agency, with many of my clients now making the transition from client to friend. I love experiencing different cultures, I love history & geography and most of all I love learning. I am being paid to do just that - to learn. The stranger the place a person wants to go, the stranger the experience they want to have, I get to learn about and impart that knowledge on to the client for them to then go and experience for themselves. How does beer fit in? Other than travel and all that that entails, I also LOVE Beer and in particular the Craft Beer scene (some may call me a Beer Snob!). The idea had been brewing (pun intended) about creating Beer Tours overseas for other enthusiasts like me. So combining my two loves ‘Travel and Beer’ Hop Abroad was born. I’m so pleased to offer this unique holiday experience - taste a tipple overseas, discover the World’s finest brewing, sightsee, experience other cultures and to have some adventure. Those who know me, know I am absolutely passionate about what I do and I love that I can help people realise their travel dreams.

Mission accomplished I have seen a cybertruck in the wild but which vehicle do you prefer. I have my own opinion but I am more a classic girl.

I know I keep saying spectacular but this place was an unexpected surprise.

10/08/2024

A little detour today on our way to Cody but worth the effort. It is no Grand Canyon but breathtaking nonetheless.

08/08/2024

Slightly off the beaten track but well worth the visit.
Very wise man who changed lives.

08/08/2024

I have wanted to visit here since I was a kid. Very moving place, it reminds you of man’s hubris.
One man breaking a promise led to so many unnecessary deaths.

08/08/2024

Wise words.

One of natures oddeties but breathtaking. This formed when the earth was much higher 50 million years ago and erosion left it behind.
Easy walk around the base gives different views from each side. We psssed a few climbers but I am not brave/stupid enough to try it.

05/08/2024

Simply stunning landscapes. My photos do not do it justice.

04/08/2024

We did a Buffalo jeep safari in Custer State Park today. 7 people per jeep and yes you do get within touching distance of the Buffalo (if you can find them) while they ignore you in the car do not get out and pet the fluffy cows.

Hands down the best coaster I have ever been on.

31/07/2024

I am a bit of a roller coaster ju**ie and this park has been on my list for a few years. The experience did not disappoint.

28/07/2024

Tonight I get to tick an item off my bucket list. Travel is about these experiences.

17/06/2024

Stunning waterfall. Pictures do not do it justice.

17/06/2024

North Shore tour post cruise. The weather didn’t play nice today but I guess we were due for rain.

11/06/2024

Pictures do not do this justice. Such a beautiful place.

10/06/2024

It is a tad cold today but the glacier is spectacular

08/06/2024

A hidden gem. Don’t worry if cars aren’t your thing the fashion from pre WW2 is amazing as well.

03/11/2023

I haven’t been to Sydney in a few years so it was nice to get out for an early walk in The Rocks.
Walking is the best way to orientate your way around a city, added bonus is the street art

Denali photography tour today. The landscape is so spectacular it even makes a non photographer like me look good. This state takes your breath away.

I recently had to do a 10 minute presentation for my BNI chapter and it had me reflecting on the diversity of scenery in Utah. My 10 day road trip was something I would advise clients to do in 14 as you do need 2 days in Canyonlands National Park to see it in all its grandeur.

Who doesn’t love a parade, especially when Mickey Mouse is involved. Anaheim is back with a few changes you need to know before you go to make the most of your experience.
