I was bit with the travel bug at a young age. My father was from Denmark and my mother from Scotland, so I spent many years as a child living in Scotland and Denmark until my family moved to Washington State. Growing up in Europe, travelling at a young age, I began to appreciate the many different cultures. As an adult I lived with my husband for many years in Germany. Of course we travelled whenever we could. My personal travel experiences continue to grow. I have extended family in Scotland so I visit regularly and take advantage of opportunities to constantly broaden my travel horizons.
I enjoy the travel business because I appreciate what the world has to offer; fulfilling other peoples' unique travel dreams is my passion.

In January of 2019 I was fortunate to get the opportunity to cruise French Polynesia, in the South Pacific on board the outstanding luxury ship, the Paul Gauguin. This amazing vessel hold 300 passengers. The crew was the best I have ever encountered on a cruise.
We sailed from Papeete Tahiti with ports of call in Huahine, Taha'a, 2 days in Bora Bora, 2 days in Moorea and finished up back in Papeete.
The beaches, especially on Bora Bora, are stunningly beautiful. We were able to visit a Pearl Farm, see how vanilla bean is grown and harvested, enjoy the displays of luscious tropical flowers, enjoyed native handcrafts and the local markets.
This is a destination and cruise I will be experiencing again!
