I have been involved in travel for 16 years. After school I studied a little, and then did some office work, before heading abroad on my own set of adventures (August 2005 to October 2007).
The tours abroad awakened a passion within me for people and travel. I love the idea of taking someone’s travel dreams and turning them into a reality. My International travels over the years include - Australia, Austria, France, Greece, Holland, Italy, Mauritius, Mozambique, Monaco, New Zealand, Switzerland, Thailand, UK, Zimbabwe. Further to that, I have done extensive touring of South Africa, to multiple luxury destinations.
Through travel, I have found opportunities to hone my skills through positive customer experiences.
