I caught the travel bug at a very young age when I was lucky enough to follow my parents on business trips to far-flung and exotic places around the globe. My decision to study geography at university confirmed my desire to learn more about the world as did the two six-month stints spent backpacking across Latin America either side.
With more than eight years of experience working in the travel industry and countless holidays to the region, I’ve managed to tick off almost every country in the Americas (including the more obscure such as Paraguay and Guyana!). Some of my personal highlights include walking with penguins in the Falkland Islands, hiking through pristine Amazonian rainforests and not seeing a single other tourist for days, visiting Machu Picchu (twice!) and partying on the streets of Rio during the weeklong carnival celebrations (which was actually my first exposure to the continent). It’s impossible to pinpoint a favourite country, let alone a specific memory, each visit opens my eyes to something new and exciting and spurs me on to make plans for the next visit!
