Bespoke Escapes, Thoughtfully Curated for You
Based in Johannesburg, I am a dedicated travel professional with a strong focus on concierge-style corporate travel and a genuine passion for crafting bespoke leisure journeys when it is time to switch off and explore. I look after busy professionals who value efficiency, reliability and discreet support for their business trips, then help them transition seamlessly into restorative holidays that feel truly personal.
For leisure travel, I design tailored itineraries across South Africa, Mauritius, Malaysia and wider Asia that reflect who you are: your interests, your pace and the level of investment you want to make in your time away. From relaxed beach escapes and island honeymoons to immersive, action-packed cultural touring, I curate experiences that feel effortless on your side yet are carefully thought through behind the scenes.
I specialise in:
-Family-friendly holidays that balance fun, comfort and convenience
-Honeymoon and romantic escapes for couples looking to celebrate in style
-Small groups and incentive trips that bring people together around shared experiences
-Solo journeys with wellbeing, reflection and meaningful discovery at their heart
Throughout your journey I am on hand to handle any changes, smooth out the unexpected and provide that concierge-style support you can rely on. I am constantly exploring new destinations, properties and experiences so that your travel plans always feel fresh, relevant and inspired.
I believe travel is one of life’s greatest teachers, and I would be honoured to look after your next journey, from South Africa to the shores of Mauritius, the cities and islands of Malaysia and Asia, and anywhere your curiosity leads.

Why use a Travel Counsellor
Let's plan your dream trip together
Tailor-made for you
Your holiday isn’t just a trip away. It’s a longed-for escape, time to reconnect with loved ones, or a dream adventure you never thought possible. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know you and understand your hopes and expectations, then use my experience, connections and passion for the destination to create a trip that makes those dreams a reality.
Personalised service. Always
When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call. I’ll listen to your thoughts and ideas like I would a friend and arrange accommodation, activities, and flights that are all personalised to you. And I’ll share my personal tips and recommendations, so you can experience the true beauty of each destination.
Stress-free travel, and more time for what matters most
I believe your time away should be stress-free, easy, and seamless from start to finish. So, I take care of all the details for you - from ATOL protection, insurance, and flexible payments to access to the myTC app, which keeps everything in one place.
Support when it matters most
If the unexpected happens, you can rest easy, knowing that I’ll handle any last-minute changes, flight cancellations, or disruptions before you even pick up the phone. So you always feel happy, carefree, and ready to make the most of every moment.
