DESTINATION SPECIALIST
I spent the past 15 years traveling to Latin American and European destinations, from top to bottom. My passion led me to work as a Tour Leader in destination for several years. As a result of my travels, I am fluent in Spanish. I can offer first hand knowledge to clients—anything ranging from restaurant recommendations to off the beaten track adventures. I enjoy going above and beyond to ensure clients have a memorable vacation.

My favourite places
-
Cartagena
Latin America
I love the colours (and weather) of Cartagena. It's a city full of history and sits within an impressive 13 kilometres of centuries-old colonial stone walls.
-
Chile
Latin America
My most recent trip was to explore Chile. Atacama, the driest desert on earth, offers stunning views from every angle. I also recommend the Colchagua wine route.
-
Salzburg
Europe
Salzburg is a great city to visit, and competed with Vienna as my favourite Austrian city. Being there in winter was fabulous to enjoy the Christmas markets.

- It is well known that Ecuador is named after the equator. Ecuador is the only country in the world officially named after a geographical feature.
- Easter Island is famous for having 887 massive statues, called moai, which were sculpted and erected by the early Rapa Nui people.
