“The incredible Italian farmhouse cuisine was such a surprise - a real farm-to-table experience. Highly recommend the limoncello - the 'home brew' had quite a kick to it!"”

Live like a local with an Italian Agriturismo stay
Italy
Enjoy a unique, first-hand experience in rural Italy with an agriturismo stay.
Bringing together “agriculture” and “tourism” it allows working farms to welcome guests for overnight stays.
You’ll also be privy to generations of culinary know-how. The perfect way to experience authentic Italy.

I joined the travel industry with House of Travel in 2022 and am so far loving it!
I have already been fortunate enough to do a bit of travelling myself and look forward to seeing more of what the world has to offer in the future!
I love researching and planning a memorable holiday for clients, there is so much to learn about each and every destination. I find that sharing travel stories is a great way to connect with others!

Having spent the last 30
years in the Travel Industry I can safely say "I love my job" !!
Getting to put together dream holidays is very rewarding and it's great to see
so many more Kiwis getting out to see this amazing world of ours...
I love to tailor holidays that are uniquely personal to you. Every person has
different needs, wants and "must do's" for their holiday. Nothing is
cookie cutter in the world of travel so being able to put together an itinerary
that is bespoke and personal is rewarding for myself and for you, the
traveller.
My favourite destinations would be Europe (especially France and Italy), South
East Asia (especially Vietnam and Thailand) and of course our Island
neighbours. I have been to Fiji numerous times and every time I just love it.
But there are so many places I have yet to travel to and I look forward to
sharing my travel stories along the way.
I look forward to working with you..
