I’ve been in the travel industry for around 20 years, starting as cabin crew flying out of Manchester before moving into a high street travel agency, where I worked as an agent i then progressed into manager roles. After having my little boy, I needed more flexibility and a great friend of mine knew I loved travel and took me under her wing working in the tailormade section of travel.
Now, I manage Protected Travel Shop Worldwide from home, focusing on long-haul trips, which is my passion. Every day brings something new. Protected Travel Shop Worldwide is the In house Tour Operator for our shops, so I speak with the staff daily and have a great relationship with them - it never feels lonely when I'm solo working. I am originally from the Fylde Coast so when i go home to visit family & friends you might catch me working from one of our shops. I love a challenge and all these years down the line i still get a buzz from helping customers find the perfect holiday. There is no better feeling when the shop calls me on the customers return to say the Customer has had the most AMAZING MEMORABLE time- That's what its all about!
My Specialist Area
Tailormade Holidays
Long Haul
My Favourite Destination
Longhaul - America. There is so much to see and do. You can spend a day relaxing by the pool or exploring, shopping and sampling mouth-watering food.
Shorthaul - Ibiza. The Island is so small but there is something for everyone. From unmatched night life, to stunning family hotels to unspoilt hidden beaches.
My Top Tip For Travellers
Always pack a spare set of clothes in your hand luggage - Just incase!
A Destination Top Of My Bucket List
Route 66... I just need to conquer the fear of driving abroad!
What’s The One Thing I Always Pack?
Wet Wipes & Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour cream (it's an oldie but treats everything)
Best Feeling In The World
Stepping off the plane into Sunshine
A Song That Lifts My Mood.
Rhianna Calvin Harris- We found love
My Most Memorable Travel Experience
The Grand Canyon Helicopter Tour. We splashed out on the tour and landed to have a picnic, on the way back we got to see the sunset. It was magical. The place is amazing and a must for anyone visiting Las Vegas.
