| Personal life or travel experiences: Climbing
Mt Kilimanjaro would be the highlight of my travels. Seeing my favourite continent

experience the most inner peace in the African bush viewing a lion with her cubs. |

| Favourite places I have visited: Canada and
Alaska, China, Africa and Mauritius, Hawaii, Fiji. |
| Personal life or travel experiences: Having
worked in the travel industry in retail, wholesale and corporate, I have seen
how technology has steered our world to a global village culture. An example
of this was the first group I escorted to China 20 years ago with the challenges
of language and tourism being limited and controlled, to a China now embracing
modernism and hosting events like the Olympic Games. My experience climbing the
wondrous Great Wall and pushbike riding in Guilin, are still clear in my memories
and set the benchmark for my love of exotic destinations. |
| Places I love to sell, talk about: Besides
exotic destinations, the cruising culture is a favourite sell because of the
diverse ports of call on a variety of ship standards, ensuring an enjoyable experience
for the traveller. Also designing unique holiday experiences for my clients,
like luxury escapes and soft adventure travel. |

| Favourite places I have visited: Africa, Cambodia, Vietnam, Tahiti, Mauritius, New York and the list goes on. |
| Personal life or travel experiences: I see every destination as a new adventure and I thoroughly enjoy discovering new places. Whether it is skiing Canada or cruising on one of the gorgeous Cruise ships such as Regent Seven Seas, or taking a tuk-tuk before the sunrises to Angkor Wat and watching the sky turn pink as the sun rises over the main temple, or an adventure with Abercrombie & Kent to the remote areas of Zambia staying in beautiful lodges and camps surrounded by wild animals!. Luxury is all about the experience whether it’s with kids or without it’s the detail that makes the difference of an exceptional travel experience. |

| Favourite places I have visited: Bali, Hawaii,
Alaska, Vietnam. |
| Personal life or travel experiences: I am a
bit of a fitness freak and in 2004 I had finished my morning run up to Diamond
Head (Honolulu) and decided to finish with a swim at the beach. When I was coming
out of the water who do I see standing alone on the beach — none other
than Cameron Diaz!. Of course I had to go up to her and introduce myself. She
turned out to be great fun and we chatted for 10 minutes. That is my brush with
fame while holidaying in Hawaii. |

| Favourite places I have visited: Fiji, Hawaii,
Thailand, Bali, Vietnam, Europe, UK, USA. |
| Personal life or travel experiences: I joined
the Travel Industry when I was 18 because I was eager to see the world! That
eagerness is still just as strong today. There is nothing more exciting to me
than landing in a new country ready to explore. I love to meet the locals and
soak up the culture of a country as I feel that’s how you see a country
at it’s best. |
| Places I love to sell, talk about: Elephant
trekking in Thailand, Swimming with Dolphins in Hawaii and snorkeling in Fiji
are some of the highlights that stay in my mind. I now have a baby so my travel
needs have changed and I look forward to experiencing ‘Travelling with
Kids’ for myself! |

Years in the industry – 15 years |
| Favourite places I have visited: Costa Rica, Peru, Italy, Greek Islands, Australia |
| Personal life or travel experiences: I was first bitten by the travel bug in my late teens when inter-railing around Europe and working in the Greek Islands. In my early twenties I took two years off work to travel to the USA, Mexico, South East Asia and Australia and it was when I returned from this trip that I started working for a large independent UK travel company. Since then I have taken every opportunity to travel and experience new destinations, from climbing amongst toucans and howler monkeys on Arenal, Costa Rica's active volcano, to hiking through rarefied air to see the amazing ruins of Machu Pichu on the Inca Trail and sampling too much chianti during the Sienna Palio in Tuscany. Now that I have two small children, I don't live out of a backpack any more and my budget and opportunities are different, but the wanderlust is still there! |
| Places I love to sell, talk about: I'll happily talk for ages about any of the places I've been to, but I would have to say that Costa Rica is my all-time favourite - it has such a wonderful combination of flora, fauna, people, climate and scenery, I love it so much I got married there! |
