Travel has been my passion and occupation for the last 30 years. After finishing school, I embarked on a trip to Europe and the travel bug bit me hard. On returning home, I gave up my university entry to study languages and instead joined the national airline. When it was time to be a mum, I opened my own travel agency, which I successfully operated for 20 years. I did many travel courses and lots of travel too! Now I am an authorised driver guide in the beautiful city of Sydney. For me travel is an experience to be savoured by all your senses. I want my visitors to get a strong sense of what it is like to live and play in this harbour city and so besides visiting the icons, we venture to magnificent harbour parks, where locals hang out so often you can get to engage with them. I love the blend of cultures and traditions in Sydney and in celebration of that, I offer a Jewish Heritage Tour of Sydney. Travel is an experience to be savoured so the fragrant memory of a special day lingers on.
