Last night a customer rang me from Kathmandu: her husband had lost his passport just 8 hours before they were due to fly home at the end of a Delhi to Kathmandu adventure with their two adult children.
They began the emergency passport process and needed my advice on whether the children could travel home alone and what to do about new flights. Today the children are in Delhi waiting for their flight to London, and I am staying in close contact with the parents, ready to book them on to new flights as soon as the emergency passport is issued. They are not on their own in this.

Big news for Africa lovers ✈️.

British Airways is launching a new seasonal route from London Gatwick to Tanzania for summer 2027, perfect for combining adventure and beach in one unforgettable trip.

From 29 May to 31 October 2027, BA will operate a triangular service:

🇬🇧 London Gatwick (LGW)
🗻 Kilimanjaro (JRO)
🏝️ Zanzibar (ZNZ)

…then back to London Gatwick.

✅ 3 flights per week: Mondays, Thursdays & Saturdays
✅ Aircraft: Boeing 777
✅ Approx. flying time: 11h 20m out, 9h 30m back
Imagine: summit views of Kilimanjaro, followed by white-sand beaches and turquoise waters in Zanzibar, all on one seamless itinerary.

If you are dreaming of Tanzania in 2027, I can design a tailor-made trip that makes the most of these new flights, from safari and trekking to barefoot luxury on the beach.

Drop me a message to start planning.

Love, set, match… and a wagging tail for good measure. 🎾

From my daughter’s tennis lesson to four‑legged friends who never miss a ball, my house is full of energy today. It is exactly this mix of family fun and furry sidekicks that inspires the trips I plan.

Whether you are dreaming of:

A tennis holiday with great coaching, courts on site and sunshine, or a dog‑friendly break where your pup is as welcome as you are. I can help you find the perfect escape.
I cannot promise dog tennis holidays just yet, but I can promise carefully chosen resorts, stress‑free planning and support from start to finish.

Message me if you would like to start planning your next tennis break or getaway with your dog.

Crafted tailor-made itineraries that reflect individual tastes and dreams.
Built long-term relationships with families, couples and solo travellers who return year after year.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted me with their travel plans. Your support means the world and allows me to do what I love every day.

If you are starting to think about your next holiday or long-term travel plans, I am here to help.

WHERE TO GO IN SEPTEMBER? ✈️🌍

September is a brilliant month to get away, whether you’re looking for Mediterranean sunshine, an epic Australian adventure or a vibrant city escape.

🇬🇷 SANTORINI
Warm days, beautiful beaches, spectacular sunsets and those iconic whitewashed villages. September brings gorgeous summer weather, with the sea still lovely and warm.

🇦🇺 WESTERN AUSTRALIA
Think incredible beaches, rugged coastlines, wildlife, wine regions and some seriously spectacular scenery. September is a fantastic time to explore this vast and diverse corner of Australia.

🇸🇬 SINGAPORE
A brilliant mix of city, culture, food and luxury. Explore the futuristic skyline, incredible restaurants and colourful neighbourhoods before adding on a few nights somewhere beautiful in Asia.

So, which one would you choose?

Santorini 🇬🇷 | Western Australia 🇦🇺 | Singapore 🇸🇬

Whatever your September escape looks like, I can take care of all the details and create a trip that’s completely tailored to you.
