What a way to wrap up another TravelManagers conference! ✨

Hobart turned on the sunshine for a fantastic few days of connection, learning and plenty of laughs with fellow Personal Travel Managers, our National Partnership Office team and our wonderful supplier partners.

From workshops and the latest industry news and updates, to our trade fair connecting one-on-one with key travel partners, conference is always a valuable few days to step away from the day-to-day and come home with fresh knowledge, ideas and connections to bring back into my business — and ultimately, the trips I plan for my clients.

One of the things I love most about TravelManagers is the community behind the scenes. We may each run our own businesses, but there’s an incredible network of people, expertise and support around us.

And next year… Manila! 🇵🇭 Even more special as 2027 will mark my 10 years with TravelManagers. I think that calls for a pretty good celebration! 🥂

Another amazing TravelManagers conference. ☀️

Hobart turned on the sunshine and it was great to reconnect with fellow TravelManagers, our National Partnership Office and our wonderful supplier partners.

The theme this year was connection — which really is what our industry is all about. Connecting with people, sharing ideas and experiences, building relationships with our partners and, ultimately, creating connections between our clients and the world.

A few days full of learning, laughs, great conversations and plenty of inspiration. Feeling very lucky to be part of such a supportive network and heading home with lots of fresh ideas and renewed energy for the year ahead. ✈️🌏

Last night I attended the annual Treasures of the South Pacific trade event 🌴🌺

Events like this are such an important part of what I do — connecting directly with destination experts and tourism partners, hearing the latest product updates, discovering new experiences and keeping across what’s changing across our beautiful South Pacific neighbours.

That knowledge is invaluable when I’m designing an itinerary, helping me recommend not just where to stay, but how to make the most of your time in destination with the latest experiences and offerings in mind.

I absolutely adore the South Pacific. Whether your idea of the perfect island escape is a blissful flop-and-drop resort stay, a romantic getaway, a family holiday, or something a little more adventurous with island hopping and local experiences, there’s so much more to this region than simply finding a beautiful beach.

If a South Pacific escape is calling, I’d love to help you find the island — or islands — that are just right for you. 🌊✨

Some hotels are simply a place to sleep. Others become part of the destination.

After a day exploring London, there was something so lovely about returning here. Beautifully designed lounges to unwind in, one of the prettiest breakfast rooms, genuinely warm service, and that wonderful feeling of escaping the city’s buzz without ever being far from it.

The rooms are on the smaller side—which is fairly typical in London—but the location more than makes up for it. Nestled in South Kensington, you’re surrounded by elegant tree-lined streets, grand embassies, charming pubs and local w**e bars, with Hyde Park just a short stroll away. It feels like discovering a quieter, more refined side of London while still having the entire city at your fingertips.

It’s exactly the kind of neighbourhood I love recommending to clients looking for somewhere special to retreat to after a day of sightseeing.
