As the proud Owner Operator of House of Travel Nelson, I lead a small but passionate team dedicated to taking care of all your travel needs.

I primarily work on the Orbit World Travel side of our business, specialising in business and group travel. But as a traveller myself, I love chatting with customers and the team about their upcoming adventures — there’s nothing better than sharing in the excitement of a great trip!

Travel has played a huge role in my life. From years of family holidays to the Gold Coast and Fiji, where the kids spent hours in the pool or on the playground, to unforgettable highlights like Disneyland (they were 10 and 12 — the perfect age!), followed by a relaxing week in Mexico. These days, with older kids, we’re seeking more adventure. Our recent trip to Vietnam was a standout — from the vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City to the peaceful beauty of Hoi An's lanterns and Halong Bay. If you haven’t been, it’s a must! 

Next on my list? Europe. While I’ve done a couple of quick trips in the past, I’m keen to take the time to explore the diverse cultures and rich history of the places I’ve spent years helping others discover.

Whether your trip is big or small, come in and see us at House of Travel Nelson — we’ll make sure it’s your best one yet.

Being a friendly and bubbly person, I appreciate spending time with my clients building their dream holidays, listening and paying attention to their needs to create special memories. Let me help you discover the world the way that you would like to.

I feel so fortunate to be a part of this wonderful travel industry that I am so enthusiastic about and find that my passion to help others shows when working in my happy place.

I have travelled through Europe with Contiki in my early 20's which was such a wonderful way to get a taste for the European culture and food, opening my mind to Europe's uniqueness. In 2023 I travelled to London to watch an All Blacks game at Twickenham Stadium which was absolutely fantastic, then completed a Trafalgar tour of England and Scotland. I was so blown away by the historic palaces and magnificent landmarks as well as iconic attractions.

Recently I was in Central Europe and embarked on a Scenic River cruise from Budapest through Vienna and Bratislava on the Danube. Cruising through the European waterways being inspired by the picture-postcard villages and castles. It was like being in a dream. If you have ever thought of doing a European River cruise, I highly recommend it. Come see me to have a chat about this incredible way of travelling as well as giving you some tips and insights before you go.

Selling river and ocean cruises is a passion of mine. It is such an easy way to travel. Unpacking once, having food included as well as entertainment. Why would you not love to travel like this.

I love Asia and the wonderful people, culture and food you experience in these destinations. I have been to Bali, travelled through Cambodia and the South to North of Vietnam, as well as parts of Eastern Canada and New York. I cruised Alaska which I absolutely loved and have had many trips to different parts of Australia, South Pacific, Asia and South Africa.

My favourite country would have to be Cambodia, where I thoroughly enjoyed meeting the locals, travelling this beautiful country, and experiencing the local food. Waking up at 5am to have a cup of tea whilst watching the sun rising over Angkor Wat as the local monks walked past. It was a magical moment and one that will be engraved in my mind forever.

I can’t wait to meet with you to discuss your individual travel enquiries.
