In Loving Memory

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Cath Thorburn, a remarkable woman who played an instrumental role in the travel industry, and in our journey for the last 12 years. Cath was more than a colleague, she was a friend, a mentor, and a true supporter of everything we built.

Her dedication to our collection was unwavering. She championed our brand from the beginning and was the bridge to so many of the wonderful relationships we now hold in Australia. Her belief in what we stood for, and how we did things, was something we never took for granted.

Cath traveled with us countless times over the years, joining us in France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and most recently in Greece. We feel incredibly fortunate to have shared so many wonderful experiences with her. We were set to travel together again this October, unfortunately life had other plans.

We are deeply saddened by her passing, her presence, her guidance, and her laughter will stay with us. She will be profoundly missed, but never forgotten.

From all of us, thank you! Thank you for your friendship, your love, your support, and most importantly your time, all of which you gave unconditionally.

We love you. Rest in peace, Lady Cath!
