I absolutely love receiving photos from clients on their travels and this is no exception.

These clients are currently exploring South America and have just shared some wonderful pics from their crossing from northern Chile into Bolivia. This route is still one of my own personal standout journeys on the continent - three days travelling by 4WD, often at over 4,000 metres, surrounded by otherworldly landscapes and vast salt flats.

This is exactly the kind of remote, high‑altitude crossing where travelling with reliable, trusted local partners really makes all the difference and I am so happy I could make journey happen for them.

As the clocks go back and the nights draw in, now is the perfect time to plan something bright to look forward to. ✨

Whether it is winter sun, a cosy Christmassy city break or a big adventure for next year, I can take care of every detail so all you have to do is count down the days.

If you would like something lovely in the diary just get in touch and I will start planning.

Feeling very grateful for reviews like this as we head into the weekend. I love knowing I’ve taken the stress out of planning, and thank you for trusting me with your special holiday.

For my “where to go in October” spotlight this month, I am featuring three very different ideas:

Dublin
Perfect for a cosy autumn city break: think crisp walks along the Liffey, museum hopping, live music in traditional pubs and plenty of foodie stops. Great for a long weekend without a long flight.

Marrakech
By October the intense summer heat has eased, which makes it a fantastic time to explore the souks, sip mint tea on rooftop terraces and escape to a tranquil riad or an Atlas Mountain retreat.

Cambodia
For those looking further afield, October can be a wonderful time to start thinking about Cambodia: from the temples of Angkor to laid‑back riverside towns and beach extensions. A brilliant option if you are planning something more adventurous.

If you are considering an October break, this year or next, I am here to help you weigh up what would suit you best.

🍂 I can't quite believe it is October already. September has absolutely flown by.

Here is a month in the life of a Travel Counsellor:

• Planning and booking everything from long-haul adventures to New Zealand and Australia to sunshine-filled escapes in Morocco and beyond
• Reconfirming every last detail for clients travelling in September, including a complex two‑month, multi‑country Latin America adventure
• Catching up with clients when they return and using their feedback to shape future plans
• Being on hand while clients were away: from helping with online check in, to resolving car hire issues, to managing unexpected accommodation changes and ensuring the new arrangements were still the right fit (rather than simply accepting an alternative).
• Working on exciting new enquiries from Costa Rica and Sri Lanka to family holidays with a cycling twist
• Being there when Mother Nature impacts a holiday, helping clients navigate any changes so their trip still feels special
• Adding in‑resort surprises for birthdays, anniversaries and other milestones
• Keeping my knowledge up to date, including a particularly insightful destination session on Namibia
• And still finding time for some refreshing cliff‑top walks to keep me going

All of this is about one thing: making sure my clients feel looked after from the moment we first chat about an idea until long after they return home.

If you would like this level of personal support and expertise for your next holiday, I would love to help you plan it.

Last week my inbox had a wonderfully antipodean theme, with bookings for a family holiday on Australia’s east coast and a five‑week motorhome road trip through New Zealand. This week has started with a distinctly Latin American twist, with a new family enquiry for an active Costa Rica itinerary and clients just arriving in Rio for the start of their South America adventure.

One of the things I love most about being a Travel Counsellor is that I get to travel the world every day through my clients’ itineraries. From self‑drive adventures and city breaks, to once‑in‑a‑lifetime holidays, the variety of trips I help to arrange is what makes this job so special.

If you are starting to dream about your own next adventure, I would love to help you plan it.

Great way to end the week.

With so much choice out there, it can be hard to work out not just what you want, but what will genuinely fit your requirements. That is exactly where I come in: listening carefully, narrowing down the options, suggesting ideas you might not have considered and shaping everything into a trip that feels “just right” for you. So grateful for this feedback and delighted you’re so happy with the result.
