Adventure, discovery and my curiosity for people and the natural world is what drives my love of travelling. I am grateful for my parents’ desire to explore, and from an early age my eyes were open to diverse landscapes, cultures, and underwater worlds.
For the last 16 years, I have worked for a leading luxury tour operator designing incredible journeys for discerning clients and travelled to some magical places. I am excited to have joined Steppes Travel, and to be working for a company with such strong ethical and sustainable values.
I’m often asked what some of my most treasured memories are and it’s always hard to choose just a few, but often my love of nature comes to mind – underwater or on land. Whether it’s blowing bubbles with sea lions in the Galapagos to hiking some of Torres del Paine’s most striking and dramatic peaks. Flying over the myriad of waterways of the Okavango delta, watching herds of grazing zebra and elephants below to trekking the forests of Guatemala and discovering hidden Mayan ruins.
In recent years I have often been discovering the British coastline with my family and now the world is opening again, I have the joy of introducing my young children to travel. Most recently they have started to discover the underwater wonders, and have learnt to snorkel in the Red Sea, and the joy of snowboarding in the Alps.
