My first Overseas trip was through the OVC and I had the time of my life. The bug had bitten. So I decided to change careers, from Civil Engineering and Drafting to Travel.

Having travelled quite a bit prior to the change, I knew I was making a change for the better. I have travelled to about 18 countries since then and I have experienced all types of accommodation and modes of transport, and have had the most wonderful experiences.

One of the highlights being the Hockenheim Formula 1 Grand Prix.

To work in the travel industry, you have to be passionate about travel, and after 11 years, I still love it.

Once the travel bug bites. It is watch out world. And like anything in life, it’s what you make of it.
