I travelled extensively with my family at a young age; exploring Africa on safari, Peru and the Galápagos. These adventures ignited a consuming passion to travel. During my university years, I ventured to the Baltics, Central Europe, Central America and studied in Madrid for a year, learning Spanish.
After graduation all I wanted to do was travel. I headed out on a solo adventure, travelling 30,000 kilometres all over South America from the southernmost city in the world, Ushuaia, all the way up to Panama. From there, I went mostly overland from Europe to Asia, starting in Finland and finishing in Indonesia.
I’ve travelled to over 70 countries, and have also lived in Japan and China, where I worked, travelled and learnt Mandarin. In 2022 I returned to the UK and began my journey working in travel for Jacada. Since then, I have split my time between London and South America, working remotely, travelling and scouting throughout the continent.
In 2025 I was recognised by Condé Nast Traveler as one of the top travel specialists in Latin America, and became a senior travel designer at Jacada. I love experiential travel and thrive on creating bespoke, adventurous and unique trips.
My most memorable trip
Latim America
It has to be travelling for nine months through South America after I graduated from university. The diversity of the continent is really unlike anywhere else on the planet. I was constantly surprised, wowed and stimulated, and I haven't stopped travelling or living abroad since!
On my bucket list
Mozambiqu
I love wildlife, and love to dive too, so Mozambique is definitely on my list and plans are already underway to combine this with a safari in South Africa. Despite already visiting, the Galapagos Islands remain on my bucket list as the destination is just so incredible - I would love to head back there for a date with some hammerheads!
See where I’ve travelled
Los Llanos, Colombia
"Spending three full days searching unsuccessfully for a giant anteater in remote Los Llanos, Colombia, only for the bus driver to spot one as I was leaving. He fortunately stopped for me to take photos."
Discover destination
Nazca, Peru
" I have (so far!) climbed 3 of the 5 tallest sand dunes in the world. Sandboarding through the sea of clouds down the Cerro Blanco dune in Nazca, Peru, completely alone, was especially memorable. Seeing an andean condor flying overhead as I finished, was just the icing on the cake."
Discover destination
Valencia, Spain
"Feeling the warmth of the fire on my face as an intricate ‘Falla’ was set alight, during the exhilarating Las Fallas festival in Valencia, Spain. "
Discover destination
Sichuan, China
"Hitchhiking to a remote nature reserve in Sichuan, China, in search of a red panda, and having the most incredible sighting, even in the height of summer, after just two hours of walking."
Discover destination
The best hidden gem
North Jujuy, Argentina
The richness and diversity of its landscapes, as well as people and food, is incredible. It is rarely travelled and you feel like you are experiencing the real Argentina.
My favourite hotel
Awasi Iguazu
Awasi Iguazu. You explore not just the waterfalls - which are out of this world - but also the best preserved atlantic rainforest in the world, with a private vehicle, superb private guide and unique customized experiences away from the crowds.
My top tips
Less is more in South America, don't try and see the whole continent in one trip - there is simply to much on offer.
Try to add on that extra day or two, to your trip, and let us surprise you by taking you somewhere incredible your friends have never heard of.
Sometimes, tying different foods is one of the best ways to learn about the culture of a place.
Where possible, try and an overland journey over a flight. It can take longer but the experience can offer amazing insights into culture and landscapes.
