Well... that's us nearing the end of a year we won’t be forgetting too soon!
Firstly, thanks for all your brilliant support. I really appreciate that my clients have been so understanding throughout the turmoil of this year - changes, cancellations and rebooks - words all too familiar to us now!
The future is slowly starting to look a little brighter though and I will get you travelling once again and making up for 2020.
As bubbles begin to hopefully expand, precious times with family and friends will be even more important to us and we will especially be wanting to reconnect on multi-generational trips, making new and lasting memories.
This is unquestionably a good time to be booking for the year ahead with many suppliers offering flexibility and great deals. I can also keep you straight on all the new regulations and guidelines, along with the impact of Brexit on travel.
My new website is now live and I'm so excited to have all my travel tips and tricks in one place. I hope that it may provide some inspiration and with this first newsletter I have picked out a couple of nuggets that I am eager to share (see below).
My own 2021 travel diary is filling up with a scheduled trip to the Istrian coast of Croatia in July and our special Japan trip moved to October.
To coincide, I have also been preparing my first online client event, with specialists InsideJapan, which I will be co-hosting early in the new year. Those with a hankering to visit Japan should look out for forthcoming details for the chance to attend this exclusive session with a very limited number of spaces available.
Thank you again for your support, kind messages and helping me stay positive through this crazy year, and wherever you are this festive season, I wish you a fantastic time and hope it's filled with some much-needed fun and laughter.
Here's to a better 2021.

I was finally about to address this only to be temporarily thwarted by the pandemic. With some training just completed, my first client event coming soon and my trip rescheduled, read why I believe Japan deserves our attention...
Gill’s Blog: Discovering The Palm Beaches, Florida
This time last year, I was being extremely well looked after in the Palm Beaches in Florida. It seems like a distant memory, but I'm mighty pleased to have got this trip in before Covid kicked off. Join me for a reminisce...
Client Blog: Honeymooning at OBLU Sangeli in the Maldives
I felt so disappointed for those whose wedding and honeymoon plans for 2020 had to be cancelled or placed on hold. Sian and David fortunately managed to complete their multi-stop adventure at the tail end of last year and it included a stay at one of my favourite places...
