About Me
I have been a Travel Broker with NZTB since 2012 based in Mangawhai, Northland but my clients live all over New Zealand.
If you are planning a trip away please give me a call or send me an email to discuss all your travel plans. I can meet you in the convenience of your own home or at my house or at a café, whatever is best for you!
I have moved to Mangawhai from Vienna, Austria in December 2002 and I have worked in the travel industry and in customer service for most of my working life. Back in Austria I studied Tourism and worked in a few different retail travel agencies selling everything from flights, hotels, rental cars and package tours. I have always travelled a lot myself, I have been to most European countries, the USA, Cuba, Fiji and several times to New Zealand. More recently I have been to Samoa, Australia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, back to Austria, USA, cruising in theSouth Pacific, Niue, Cook Islands and Fiji. On my last trip to Europe (2018) I have been to Italy, Croatia and Austria with a stopover in Tokyo and Hong Kong. In November 2023 my husband and I went on the most amazing cruise in French Polynesia with Paul Gauguin cruises, a definite highlight of all my travels so far!
Here in New Zealand I have worked in customer service for a campervan rental company, as a Real Estate salesperson and I had my own tour company organizing tours around New Zealand, focusing on sustainable travel. My personal travel philosophy is: Travel with Respect. Respect for the environment and respect for the people and their culture.
I am passionate about travel and committed to giving you the best possible service. I would love the opportunity to discuss your travel plans with you and find you the best possible deals. Operating as a Travel Broker means I am a fully approved Travel Broker through TAANZ (Travel Agents Association of New Zealand) so you have the same security as with any other bonded Travel Agent. I am also a member of CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association – Australasia).
I can book your flights, hotels, transfers, rental cars, cruising, coach tours and travel insurance, all in the convenience of your own home. And I am available flexible hours and on the weekend. So why not, give me a call and see what I have to offer!
