Welcome – I’m so pleased you’re here.

If we haven’t met yet, let me introduce myself. I’m Karen, and I live in a lovely village just outside Winchester in Hampshire. It’s a place with a real sense of community and I share my life with my fabulous husband, Andy and Ted our very cute cockapoo!

Travel has always been at the heart of my life. With over 30 years of experience in the industry, I’ve been fortunate to live and work in some incredible places - including Greece, western Canada, and Dubai. Along the way, I’ve loved immersing myself in different cultures and languages, and those experiences continue to shape the way I work today.

I spent 14 years as cabin crew, followed by 9 years working with a luxury tour operator - so you could say travel is part of who I am! I've explored far and wide, from the peaks of Latin America to the plains of Africa, the wonders of Asia, and of course, my annual beach escapes to the idyllic islands of the Maldives.

These journeys inspire me daily, helping me connect clients with the destinations that suit them best. As well as our award winning range of Travel Counsellor holidays, I work closely with a handpicked selection of trusted travel partners - from expedition and river cruise lines to small group tour operators, city break specialists, and Arctic and Nordic adventure providers just to name a few.

Whether you’re dreaming of a bucket-list safari, a cultural adventure across Asia, or a hidden gem off the beaten track, I bring a wealth of insider knowledge, a curious mind, and a genuine passion for personalised service to every trip I design.
Most importantly, you’ll have someone by your side who truly cares - not just about where you’re going, but about every step of the journey. I believe it’s the thoughtful touches and attention to detail that turn a great holiday into an unforgettable experience.

When you book with me, you can do so with complete peace of mind. I’m fully ATOL protected and offer 100% financial protection through one of the UK’s largest independent tour operators.

Whether you’re ready to start planning or just looking for a bit of inspiration, I’d love to hear from you. There’s never any pressure - just a friendly chat and expert advice when you need it.

I look forward to helping you plan something truly special.
