100% Pure New Zealand Specialist

I began this journey called "Travel" 32 years ago. For as long as I can remember I have loved to see new places, meet new people and experience new cultures. I also feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to work with and become close friends with a number of my clients through the years. I believe the world is an adventure waiting to be experienced and I am continually pursuing new ways to work that excitement into your next trip. 

Because I feel that each destination I have visited has something different to offer, it is hard to say that I have a favorite destination. I would have to say that the most memorable destination for me would be Fiji because I had the opportunity to meet the people and children of the villages and to see life as they live it all while surrounded by the most beautiful scenery both above and below. It was like stepping back in time where life moves slower and you are more in touch with each other and your surroundings. Truly magical!

Paradise Found In FIJI with Travel Specialist

<p>Fiji is one of those destinations that was life changing for me.</p>
<p>It wasn't just because of the beautiful beaches and water but, more so the people of Fiji. I was able to tour the Northern Islands specifically and had no idea how this area would differ from the more fast paced area of Nadi.</p>
<p>One of the most memorable experiences was the way guests are greeted at the resorts of the Northern Islands. From the moment the doors open on your vehicle you are welcomed with smiling faces and cheerful songs. The staff also bids farewell in this manner at the end of your stay. I felt welcome the whole time and at every property.</p>
<p>An example of this welcoming feeling is when you were asked "How are you today?" They really wanted to know. The other thing I noticed on more than one occasion was when we were shuttling between local attractions it was a common practice to stop to pick up elderly pedestrians walking along the roadside. There is great respect for the elders of the area.</p>
<p>While staying at the Qamea Resort & Spa on Qamea Island I had the opportunity to visit a local school. We arrived toward the end of the day so, we were able to experience their end of the day routine. Here is where I was reminded of my childhood. The children each had a job to do in the classroom before they were excused to the courtyard. Some were sweeping the floors, some were cleaning chalk boards others were washing windows or stacking chairs. Once they were excused to the courtyard the children lined up single file by grade while the principal discussed the days events. After the principal was done talking the Fiji Scouts (their version of Boy Scouts) lead the group in the pledge of Allegiance to the Fijian Flag followed by the lowering and folding of the flag. Once this was done the children were excused to wait for their boat to bring them back to their village.</p>
<p>It was such a wonderful sight to see all the children running and playing soccer in the courtyard! There were no video games! I left this country feeling a sense of peace and like I was saying farewell to family. I will hold those experiences near and dear to my heart the rest of my life.</p>
