When I was growing up in sunny Southern California, people were always very content with their surroundings, but since traveling to visit family when I was very young, I haven't been able to shake the desire to continue exploring the globe! My theory in life is that you will never know what city is the greatest in the world…until you see every city in the world!

When I was growing up in sunny Southern California, people were always very content with their surroundings, but since traveling to visit family when I was very young, I haven't been able to shake the desire to continue exploring the globe! My theory in life is that you will never know what city is the greatest in the world…until you see every city in the world!

I had been lucky enough to travel around the US, Central America and the UK extensively while I was growing up, and taken a few extraordinary trips further afield. However, it wasn’t until I moved from California to London in 2015 that I started reaching for more. Since moving abroad, I’ve taken full advantage of the ease of travel and in the first two years, nearly managed to visit a different country every month! One of the first long trips I took once moving here was to Asia, and I was immediately hooked. From the culture, to the amazingly welcoming people, to the incredible food, I never wanted to leave! Since then I have been lucky enough to travel extensively throughout remarkable countries such as Australia and New Zealand and continue to explore new destinations around the globe. Now, I’ve moved from planning trips for my friends and family to planning trips for guests at Scott Dunn and I couldn’t be happier sharing my amazing experiences of the world with them.

Favorite places I've been

My hot picks

My top tips

  • The incredible temples in Cambodia are all well worth the early start to beat the heat and the crowds. Watching the sun rise over Angkor Wat is absolutely stunning and a must in Siem Reap!

  • Tip to beating jetlag - be sure to eat three meals a day on your first few days at the appropriate times to get your body set to local time quicker!

  • If you're traveling through California, be sure to stop off in Carmel and Big Sur on the central coast. Fantastic beach, great resturants, and some of the best wine in all of California!

  • Make sure you make time to explore Hoi An when in Vietnam. An incredibly charming village lined with hand painted lanterns, and amazing food! Try out the BBQ chicken at Cargo Club in Old Town!

  • Make sure you check out the night market in Luang Prabang, Laos where you can find amazing locally made crafts and jewelry.

  • Always get Vietnamese ice coffee when traveling through the country. It's the best when made locally, you can really taste the difference!

  • If you love Thai food, be sure to try the Pad See Ew at the Anantara Layan in Phuket. It's the best I've ever had!
