You could say travel is in my blood – or at least in my family. My grandmother and my dad founded a travel agency together over 50 years ago, and our family trips gave me a true taste of the joys of travel. I’ve been an advisor for over 15 years now and love selling the sunny Caribbean which I’m very familiar with (I’m a big fan of Jamaica as we used to have a second home there, as well St. Lucia, the Bahamas, Antigua and Barbados). I’ll also travelled multiple times to Mexico, primarily the Riviera Maya south of Cancun and the Puerto Vallarta area on the West Coast. I have even toured the interior of Mexico by train. Costa Rica is another personal favourite. I’d love to tell you about the wonderful eco-touring there!
If cruising is more your style, please ask me about Regent or RCCL. There are so many wonderful cruise lines, it can be difficult to sort out what’s best for you - which is why I am here.
There’s nothing I enjoy more than a challenge, rolling up my sleeves and doing the research to make sure everything goes seamlessly. For example, a client who is an older gentleman from India told me he wanted to take some American friends there to visit his childhood home town and other smaller off-the-beaten-path centers. It was great fun to plan it all and make sure it went seamlessly: to this day he thanks me for arranging it all.
My devotion to detail and concern for your needs and wishes are paramount with me.
