7 years' Experience in Travel

I was born in Australia and have always had a curious spirit. This has led me to explore all seven continents and more than 60 countries, driven by a love of adventure, food and wine, and the stories of ancient civilisations.

Whether cycling through Provence, hiking the Inca trail, photographing Antarctic penguins, or just taking in the views, I always want to connect to a place and its' people. More recently, I’m learning to travel with a young family in tow, where luxury is as much about ease and authenticity as it is about sharing the wonder of the world together.
