For the past decade I have lived and worked abroad in a wide variety of travel jobs, from selling boat trips in the Whitsunday Islands, Australia to arranging adventure cycling tours in the Indian Himalaya. I joined CV Villas in 2019 where I now get to share my passion for Europe and matching people up to their dream villas for magical holidays. I strongly believe that travelling is the single best thing we can do to expand our horizons, meet new people and relax.
It's hard to decide but currently I think Italy is in top place for my favourite travel destination - it has so much to offer in terms of amazing food, rich culture and art, beautiful scenery and friendly people. I recently vacationed in Sicily and I cannot recommend it highly enough to all foodie and culture seeking travellers.
Patagonia. I travelled extensively around Latin America for 8 months but by the time I reached Buenos Aires and planned on travelling South to Patagonia, I was too late - the roads close in their winter months. I was gutted as I was desperate to go trekking in the Torres del Paine National Park and to see the glaciers. I hope to make it back that way soon.
A holiday really is a mixed bag for me - while I do like to relax and unwind on a sun lounger, I do also love to do adventure activities and go out cycling and trekking. I love to sample all the local foods of the country I am in, especially street foods.
Be adventurous! Speak to the locals, try all the foods, put down your phone, be present and enjoy!
