House of Travel Northlink (formerly Northlands)
With over 12 years in the industry I have always had travel and tourism in my blood, including working as cabin crew for nearly 8 years. I was so lucky to visit so many great destinations while working and on personal trips.
When I'm not working you will find me at home cooking and spending quality time with my young family and friends.

House of Travel Nelson
As the proud Owner Operator of House of Travel Nelson, I lead a small but passionate team dedicated to taking care of all your travel needs.
I primarily work on the Orbit World Travel side of our business, specialising in business and group travel. But as a traveller myself, I love chatting with customers and the team about their upcoming adventures — there’s nothing better than sharing in the excitement of a great trip!
Travel has played a huge role in my life. From years of family holidays to the Gold Coast and Fiji, where the kids spent hours in the pool or on the playground, to unforgettable highlights like Disneyland (they were 10 and 12 — the perfect age!), followed by a relaxing week in Mexico. These days, with older kids, we’re seeking more adventure. Our recent trip to Vietnam was a standout — from the vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City to the peaceful beauty of Hoi An's lanterns and Halong Bay. If you haven’t been, it’s a must!
Next on my list? Europe. While I’ve done a couple of quick trips
in the past, I’m keen to take the time to explore the diverse cultures and rich
history of the places I’ve spent years helping others discover.
Whether your trip is big or small, come in and see us at House of Travel Nelson — we’ll make sure it’s your best one yet.

FAQS
What is the best time to visit Bali?
The best time to visit Bali is during the dry season (April to October), when you’ll enjoy sunny days, lower humidity and temperatures around 27 to 31°C. This is ideal for beach time, sightseeing and outdoor adventures.
The wet season (November to March) brings short, heavy tropical showers - usually in the afternoon, so you can still travel, just plan around the rain.
For Kiwis, shoulder months like May, June and September offer great weather with fewer crowds and better value.
How long should I spend in Bali?
Most travellers from New Zealand spend 7 to 10 days in Bali to properly explore beaches like Kuta and inland areas like Ubud.
If you’re short on time, 5 nights works for a relaxing beach break, while 10 to 14 days lets you combine Bali with nearby islands like Nusa Penida or the Gili Islands.
Where should I go in Bali for the first time?
For first‑time visitors, a mix of destinations works best:
- Seminyak or Legian offer dining, beach clubs and great shopping
- Ubud lets you experience culture, rice terraces and wellness
- Nusa Dua is renowned for it’s relaxing resorts and calm beaches
- Uluwatu boasts limestone cliffs, epic surf and stunning sunset views
This combination gives you a well-rounded Bali experience.
Is Bali a good holiday destination for Kiwis?
