I believe every holiday should be as unique as the person taking it. That's why I take the time to get to know you, understand your travel style, preferences, and budget, so I can create a holiday that's tailored just for you. From our first conversation until you return home, I'm here to make the whole experience personal, enjoyable, and completely stress-free.

Part of The Independent Travel Consultants from Jamie Wake Travel.

What inspired you to be a travel consultant?


Because I've always loved travel and believe everyone deserves unforgettable experiences. Now I get to turn that passion into helping others create amazing memories.



What do you love most about working as an independent travel consultant?


What I love most about being part of **The Independent Travel Consultants** is the support, training, and sense of community. Even though I run my own business, I'm backed by an experienced team that's always there to offer advice and guidance. It gives me the confidence to provide my clients with a professional, personalised service while helping them create unforgettable holidays. I also love being part of a team that shares the same passion for travel and putting customers first.

Is there anything you specialise in?


At the moment, I don't specialise in just one type of travel. I love helping clients plan all kinds of holidays—from relaxing beach escapes and city breaks to cruises, family adventures, and luxury getaways. My goal is to find the perfect trip for every traveller.

Top 3 Destinations I Can't Stop Talking About

🌍 **Top 3 Destinations I Can't Stop Talking About** **The Maldives** – Crystal-clear waters, overwater villas, incredible marine life, and unforgettable sunsets. My stay at the Hard Rock Maldives was truly magical, especially swimming with rays, reef sharks, and colourful tropical fish. **Fiji** – My ultimate dream destination. From its turquoise lagoons and white-sand beaches to its warm Fijian hospitality, Fiji is at the very top of my travel bucket list. **Jamaica** – A destination that stole my heart. Climbing Dunn's River Falls, visiting Bob Marley's home, enjoying the vibrant culture, and relaxing on beautiful Caribbean beaches made it one of my most memorable holidays.

My Travel Personality in Three Words

My Travel Personality in Three Words

**My Travel Personality in Three Words** 🌴 **Adventurous** – I love discovering new places and experiences. ☀️ **Relaxed** – You'll always find me enjoying a beautiful beach with a Piña Colada in hand. ✨ **Curious** – I love exploring local culture, trying new food, and making unforgettable memories wherever I go.

Dream Trip on My Bucket List

**🌴 Dream Trip on My Bucket List 🌴** Without a doubt, **Fiji** is at the top of my bucket list. I've always dreamed of experiencing its crystal-clear turquoise waters, pristine white-sand beaches, and the warm Fijian hospitality. Whether it's relaxing in a luxury beachfront villa, snorkelling amongst vibrant marine life, or exploring the beautiful islands, Fiji is my ultimate dream destination. One day, I hope to experience everything this tropical paradise has to offer.

Do you have a travel tip or hack that always makes a holiday smoother

Do you have a travel tip or hack that always makes a holiday smoother?

One travel tip I always recommend is to plan ahead to make your journey as smooth and stress-free as possible. Pre-book your **airport parking**, **airport transfers or taxis**, and, if you can, treat yourself to an **airport lounge**. It's a great way to start your holiday in comfort, with complimentary food, drinks, Wi-Fi, and a quiet place to relax before your flight. I also recommend keeping your important travel documents, medications, valuables, and a change of clothes in your hand luggage, just in case your checked baggage is delayed. A little planning before you travel can make all the difference and help you start your holiday feeling relaxed from the moment you leave home.
