What do you love about working at Globetrotter: Globetrotter is truly a fantastic place to work. Every day, I’m surrounded by talented, passionate people with diverse skills and inspiring backgrounds. The culture here makes coming to work not just enjoyable but genuinely fulfilling.
Your professional expertise: I’ve worked in the travel and tourism industry for 18 years, starting as a leisure travel consultant before moving through roles in management, aviation, and wholesale. Now, as a Corporate Partnerships Manager at Globetrotter, I get to collaborate with a wide range of industries and companies, which has expanded my knowledge far beyond travel. For me, this role is about more than just travel, it’s about connections and the incredible people I meet every day.
What is your favourite destination and why: After 18 years in the travel industry, I’m often asked to choose a favourite destination, and it never gets easier, because travel has given me so many unforgettable experiences. But if I had to choose, it would be Africa. There’s something truly magical about it, the warmth of the people, the richness of the culture, the flavours of the food, the breathtaking wildlife, and the deep sense of history that stays with you long after you leave. You might arrive with expectations, but Africa surpasses them in ways you can’t imagine. It’s a place that touches your soul, one everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.
What are you passionate about or inspired by :I’m passionate about people, creativity, and connection, the things that truly make life meaningful. For me, it’s never just about the destination, but the stories, experiences, and relationships that shape each journey. I’m inspired by how travel brings people together, opens minds, and sparks curiosity. One of the things I love most about what I do is meeting people from all walks of life and hearing their stories, every conversation teaches me something new and deepens my appreciation for the world around me. I’m constantly learning from the incredible people and industries I work with, finding new perspectives and inspiration well beyond travel itself. At the heart of it all, what drives me is connection, creating experiences, building trust, and leaving something meaningful and positive wherever I go.
Top travel tip: Slow down and be present. Don’t rush from one attraction to the next, the magic of travel is often found in the quiet moments, the unexpected conversations, and the people you meet along the way.
