And when you need a little inspiration for your next holiday - just ask!
(I'll be back at my desk next week)

Where are you thinking about for your next holiday?

"Travelling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller" Ibn Battuta

Monday musing got me thinking. Who's the first person you can't wait to share your holiday stories with?

Here's a Thursday thought. Is a cruise holiday good value for money?
In short, yes...

Why?
There's a cruise for every budget - from family-friendly sailings to luxury expedition voyages. It's about finding the right one for you!

It might sound expensive or indulgent to book a cruise holiday. But when you think about it, it's your accommodation, travel (onboard), multiple destination stops, most food and entertainment - covered. There's some fantastic combinations and packages to get value for money.

Let's open up the conversation in the comments.

What puts you off a cruise holiday, or share what you absolutely love?

As if my lovely clients would ghost me after booking their holiday...!

Fab fact: Did you know I'm at the end of my phone when you're on holiday?
If there's any issues, I have onsite agents and contacts who can help if something doesn't go quite right.

Just another reassurance when you book with Journeys by Sharon, my support continues even when you're there (if needed).

A short but fun-filled week ahead. Journeys by Sharonn is off to Liverpool tomorrow for the Sailors' Children's Society lunch. (Taking Mr Journeys by Sharon along too).

I'm so proud to support this charity . Looking forward to hearing their latest updates and mingling at the luncheon this Tuesday.

If you've not heard of this charity, please go follow, and consider supporting too. This wonderful charity supports families and children of a seafaring parent(s). Working hard, they support those in all areas of the maritime industry, offshore and inland. They've helped well "over 48,000* disadvantaged children of seafarers throughout the UK since 1821". Outstanding isn't it? More about the longstanding history and the valuable work they do can be found on their website sailorschildren.org.uk.

Ooh ,and before I forget.
Remember I mentioned my Let's Set Sail - The Cruise Mini Series, last week? Keep an eye out for the second anchor dropping later this week.

Cheers to the weekend hey! How are you spending your Bank Holiday weekend?

Just a little update for you.
After the shorter working week next week, you'll find me "out of office" between 9th -17th May.

Don't worry - the social media will still pop up during that week, so you won't miss Journeys by Sharon too much!...

Follow along for more captured content and holiday inspiration.

Holiday browsing can happen any day... But, with a nod to the upcoming Bank Holiday (UK) are you thinking about your next holiday? Maybe planning it is still on your to-do list, but it gets overwhelming.

Journeys by Sharon thinks about travel...often!

Rewatch the reel and tell me your dream destination?

Let's get planning.

Launching into a new week with the Let's Set Sail - Cruise Mini Series.

I recently mentioned that I'd be starting a little mini series all about cruising.
And, aside from the fact it's one of my very favourite kinds of holiday, also because I'd like to throw light on some myths and stereotypes about cruising. Plus share with you all the good stuff and 'did you know' bits.

So join me in following along to find out all things cruising you might learn something new or feel super inspired for your next holiday adventure.

And if you're curious about cruising, this is a (ahem) fab place to start!

Opening sail with a question for you - what do you think of when you hear cruise holiday? What springs to mind first?
Big ship. Little ship. err fish? Luxury or anything-goes.

Let's get on board and hear more about cruising in this mini series.

Share this or tag a pal who might need some info or inspiration.

Do you read a book on holiday? Maybe you only read while travelling or relaxing on the beach. Maybe you're the type of person who takes a book and never reads it (too busy on your adventure), or you finish one or more in a week-long holiday?

What books are you packing? Share your favourite holiday genre or a recommendation in the comments.

It's one of those days where you're looking out from your office window while sorting holiday enquiries and admin.
And then...

Your client sends you the most stunning photos while they're on their holiday! I mean, just.... I had to tell them to stop.. I'm kidding, I love getting happy client updates!

My POV
versus
My Client's POV.

Always a fun comparison...!

They win in todays photo stakes!

What's filling your cup this week? Holiday thoughts?

I thought so. Me too.

But I have work (booking your holidays), pilates, and networking group to do, and all the other things, before I consider my holiday.

Send a friend to my socials if they need a helping hand with their holiday planning, inspiration, ideas, or info.
