Where do I begin?!! I first got the bug for travel when I decided to backpack across Australia. This was a dream of mine and I made some wonderful memories working and travelling, seeing all the sights that this vast country has to offer. My favourite city in Australia is Brisbane and the best sight to see, I have got to say, is Ayres rock!

 

After my travels, I studied travel and tourism at Durham College and did work placement at Callers Pegasus. After my course finished, I was offered a permanent position and worked at Callers Pegasus for a few years, where I learnt how to sell all things travel and find the best deals for my clients.

 

When a job became available to join the Kyle travel team back in 2005, I jumped at this opportunity and applied. I have never looked back since. I can’t quite believe I’ve been here for over 16 years, where has the time gone! They say time flies when you are having fun! I love working here and feel privileged to be a part of our amazing team. Every day is different and we are always learning new information and meeting new people.  I love organising dream holidays for my clients, It gives me a great buzz and a profound sense of satisfaction when I find the perfect holiday for them.

Plus many more – Dubai, Greece, Spain, Holland, Portugal, Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, Italy, France…

Favourite destination:

It is difficult to choose between Las Vegas and Florida.  Before I had my son, I my favourite place was Las Vegas which I visited many times and loved it, definitely an adults playground. Lots of great food, drinks, extravagant shows, fantastic shopping and of course the Grand Canyon on your door step. I could talk for hours about this glitzy glam city. Since having my son we have been to Florida 4 times and explored this wonderful state.  I love the parks in Orlando but I also love getting away from all the craziness and enjoy visiting the coastal area, where some of the best beaches in the America are.

Where next:

I have lots of places I would like to visit, I think the one that is at the top of my list would be a Caribbean cruise. I think the idea of visiting lots of different islands and experiencing all the different cultures and activities on offer sounds like it ticks all my travel boxes. 

Last holiday:

Back in 2019, I visited Miami, Sarasota and Orlando. This was amazing as it was the first time I have visited Miami, which I loved. One of the highlights was visiting little Havana and of course the gorgeous beaches of south beach!

Travel tip:

Stop for a moment and take it all in!

Jump outside your comfort zone, you won’t regret it!
