My love of travel and my planning skills are what led me to create Vivid Travel in 2008, and it is this energy that I bring to every trip I plan. I enjoy seeking out new experiences to recommend, and improving upon traditional itineraries. I love helping others discover the joys of traveling! 

Though I'd done some traveling when I was young, my passion for travel didn’t come until I went to Italy in 2004. Perhaps I was seduced by the colours and tastes of Italy (isn’t everyone?) but I came home hopelessly addicted to travel and completely in love with seeing new places and cultures. I also found I enjoyed the experience of planning an independent trip almost as much as the trip itself, and that evolved into the business I am proud to own and operate today.

Since starting my business nearly 15 years ago, I've been fortunate to travel to over 25 countries around the world, with many favourites such as Italy, Turkey, Croatia, Guatemala and India.
