This weekend I’ll be lining up once again for one of the quirkiest, toughest and most beautiful races out there. Man v Horse in Llanwrtyd Wells.

23 miles, 4,330 ft of climbing and 4,220 ft of descent over Welsh hills,
I’ve run it a few times now, but the mix of nerves and excitement never really goes away.

The race starts in Llanwrtyd Wells
Man v Horse, the World Bog Snorkelling Championships, organised walks, fishing, mountain biking, an annual beer festival, the Real Ale Ramble and countless other wonderfully eccentric events.

For me, this race captures everything I love about the outdoors: community, challenge, stunning landscapes and a healthy dose of Welsh mud and humour.

Whether you are cheering from the side-lines or toeing your own start line this weekend, here is to pushing boundaries and embracing adventures that make great stories later.

Wish me luck. I will definitely need it against the horses!

Running your own business isn’t always easy.

There are tough days, knock backs and moments of self doubt.

I’m constantly learning, adapting and negotiating my way through it all.

But what keeps me going is the part I love most, my loyal customers.

Visiting you at home to chat through your holiday plans face to face, helping you shape those ideas into something really special.
Hand-delivering your travel documents and creating little surprise gift packs so the countdown feels just as exciting as the trip itself.

For me, it’s always personal. It’s the care, the time, the thought and the genuine excitement I feel for every trip I plan that makes what I do different.

If you’re ready to start planning your next escape, I’d love to help bring it to life.

Flying to Lisbon this week reminded me that the “travel chaos” headlines don’t always match reality.

From check in through to security, everything was smooth, well organised and far less stressful than many people expect right now. The security team were friendly, queues moved quickly and the whole experience felt calm and controlled.

Of course, airports can be busier at certain times and things will never be perfect, but it is not all doom and gloom.
With the right planning, timings and support, your journey can still be reassuringly straightforward.

If you are feeling nervous about travelling because of what you have seen in the media, I am here to guide you through every step so you can travel with confidence.

As more of my clients look for ultra-luxury cruise experiences, I recently spent time on Seabourn Ovation to experience it first-hand.

I have shared my key takeaways, highlights and tips in a new blog on my updated web page.

If you are considering a premium or luxury cruise, or simply want to understand the product better, I would really appreciate you taking a look.

Your feedback and questions are always welcome.
