I always had a great love for travel and even took a year out to do a world trip in 1995, including travelling extensively around Australia, Thailand, Indonesia and the USA. I enjoy exploring new and exciting destinations, after 25 years in the business I still get excited even talking about new and exotic travel destinations. I believe I am passionate about Travel and this is one of the many reasons why I joined Travel Counsellors.

I appreciate that in today’s world, people lead very busy lives, so I aim to take the stress out of booking your holiday and make it an enjoyable experience.

I really enjoyed the experience of my trip to Croatia & Montenegro in April 2008. Croatia is located between South-Central Europe and Middle Europe. Its shape resembles that of a crescent or a horseshoe, which flanks its neighbours Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro. We departed from Dublin airport and arrived at Dubrovnik Airport and then transferred to Budva (approx. 2.5 hours)
