 "I was working in the travel industry for around 14 years in previous well known agencies and at Bristol Airport before taking a slight break for a few years. I missed being a part of peoples travel journeys, so I made my way back to Howard Travel where I have now been for just over a year. I love everything about holidays from worldwide family holidays, honeymoons, weddings abroad to worldwide cruising and everything in-between. To be a part of someone’s travels and making their dreams come true makes my job worthwhile and I feel lucky to be able to talk about different destinations and experiences to clients every day."

Favourite Holiday: I can honestly say all the holidays I have travelled on have been fabulous experiences for me as they have all been so very different.

However, I have to say cruising the Fjords and seeing its natural scenery with its waterfalls and snow high up on the mountains to the colourful buildings and cobbled streets of Stavanger and the delightful Flamm was just beautiful.

I have also cruised the Italian Med which was just as beautiful with many cities stooped in its natural history, trying a freshly made gelato on the streets of Pisa and freshly made pasta in the Vatican City was delightful.

Seeing more than one destination in one holiday on board gorgeous cruises ships is an amazing way to travel without having to use different modes of transport is a highlight for me.

Having said that there are still lots of places on my list – the World is your Oyster after all!
