The weekend’s here again… who keeps stealing my days?
For me, the answer is probably my clients! 😂
I’m heading off for four days into Europe this weekend for a little R&D — getting to know a region, experiencing it first-hand and discovering the things that don’t necessarily show up in a search result.
I’ll also be wearing my cape and staying out of the sun. 🧛♂️
But before I go, the bookings have been coming in thick and fast.
Today alone, I’ve been arranging:
🚢 A Mediterranean cruise from Malta with P&O Azura, including a very special celebration.
🚢 A family cruise from Southampton with Royal Caribbean’s Liberty of the Seas, bringing together four couples for France and Spain.
🎄 A three-generation family of six heading to the Caribbean for Christmas with NCL — three cabins, one family and a very different Christmas.
🇳🇴 Two couples travelling the Norwegian coast with Havila Voyages, from Bergen to Kirkenes, with fjords and the Northern Lights on the agenda.
🇲🇦 And a luxury long weekend in Marrakech, staying in a 12-room riad in the Medina and experiencing the city after dark.
Different clients.
Different budgets.
Different reasons for travelling.
Completely different experiences.
And that’s what I love about this business.
There isn't really a typical day.
One minute I’m helping someone celebrate a special announcement on a Mediterranean cruise, the next I’m creating a Christmas adventure for three generations, and then I’m researching a luxury riad in Marrakech.
Behind every booking is a different story.
And while I’m heading off to explore somewhere new myself, it’s worth remembering just how much time can disappear into searching for a holiday.
Around 32 hours can be spent scrolling, comparing and searching for something you might never actually book.
So don’t spend your weekend doing it.
Give me the brief: https://philipburrluck.notjusttravel.com/send-us-a-message
When? Where? Who’s travelling? And roughly what would you like to spend?
I’ll take it from there.
You get your weekend back.
Every holiday starts with a conversation, not a search engine.
