"Travel is an investment in yourself" is the quote that has inspired me for many years now, and I love to share my knowledge with others as I believe travelling truly is one of the best ways to experience life. I am passionate about tailoring your memorable trip to New Zealand, the beautiful country I am honoured to live in for 5 years now. Since a young age, I had itchy feet and was interested in discovering the world. Meeting people from different cultures, learning foreign languages, and exploring different types of landscapes led me to choose tourism as my career, after studying international relations at university and travelling around Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia.


I specialize mainly in self-guided tours all over New Zealand, designing unique itineraries where every part of the trip has been created individually to suit your style, taste, and budget. I like to show my travelers the hospitality of the locals and I select unique boutique accommodations, cozy B&Bs, and luxury lodges that will stay inyour memory. I will custom tailor all types of travels, from romantic, active/adventure, wildlife, scenic, and wellness to golf trips - you name it! I will assist you during your trip, and make your dream experience in New Zealand come true.
