25.01.2022 #wednesdaygrind Working from home can be hazardous! But it's also a joy...in all honesty I usually work when my little Lego lover is at kindy so I can get it all done. But sometimes, this is what my office looks like! This is also the reason why I love being mobile...so I can take my laptop and work from anywhere!

25.01.2022 A big thank you to our brand ambassador Jessica Watson for sharing an important message about MTA in an uncertain time

23.01.2022 Inspiration station! I was looking through photos today from our amazing conference at the end of February and it's feels like a lifetime ago! The last month and a bit has seen the entire world shutdown and travel businesses, including mine, work around the clock cancelling precious holidays and getting people home. It has been rough for so many with everyone affected in some way. But this photo right here has reminded me of a few things. 1. Adversity breeds creativity. Wh...en things go wrong, we find ways of overcoming them, working around them and building something greater on the other side. 2. Your passion is your purpose. I won't lie, I have thought on multiple occasions over the past few weeks of getting out of the travel world for good and getting a 'normal' job. One that isn't so affected by world events. One that you can switch off from the moment you leave the office. One that doesn't require so much of myself because I care so deeply for my clients. But at the end of the day, I can't imagine anything else feeding my soul like this does. My passion is travel and helping others achieve it. 3. Value yourself, your expertise, your amazingness! Learn to say no to those people and things that create a negative impact - on your time, your business, your mental state. This will allow more room for those positive interactions and growth! Personally, I'm still working on this a lot! 4. As a continuation from number three, surround yourself with positive influencers. People you can look up to, gain inspiration from, learn from and who believe in you. Lisa Pagotto, in this photo with me, shared her very personal experience with us. How she's achieved all she has, built her incredible business, Crooked Compass, and overcome so many obstacles. She is a true travel inspiration to me and a reminder we can get through anything...including a global pandemic...and come out stronger on the other side! So a BIG thank you to you Lisa If you love adventure and truly off the beaten path experiences, check out Crooked Compass and the amazing trips she does...and when this is all over and we're travelling again, I'll book it for you! PS. Always remember to iron your shirt

21.01.2022 #tuesdaythoughts Travel brings different things to different people. For me, it gives the opportunity to wake up the body and mind, shake up life and learn. It gives me the freedom to explore. Every sense is heightened by leaving my comfort zone. The tastes of a Moroccan tagine with a mix of spices I haven't experienced before. The true beauty of seeing a sunrise over the streets of Edinburgh. The smell of the red earth in the outback that permeates literally everything. The... boom of the call to prayer in Istanbul that wakes me up so early but also provides comfort. The warmth of the sun through the windows of the car while on a day trip from home. My absolute favourite part of travelling is meeting people I may not normally meet in my every day life. Often people with different ideals, different culture, a different language...but you can always find common ground to connect through. That's why I miss travel. That's why I know it will be back, even if it has changed. We will adapt and change along with it. Why do you love travelling?

21.01.2022 When you're trying to roar with the dinosaur but swallow a fly in the process because....outback!

21.01.2022 Well! Turns out @kronosaurus_korner is amazing! You literally can't help but be in awe of a complete fossil that's 100 million years old Did you also know you can go fossicking here? A short drive out of town and we did some (very amateur) searching for fossils. Very cool experience! Then back to Hughenden this afternoon for the Eco Walk on Flinders to stretch the legs. ...

20.01.2022 Well this is exciting!!! I reckon we have the best state anyway so who's doing on holiday?!

19.01.2022 Home again and missing those outback skies. And the quiet!

19.01.2022 Monday morning travel inspiration from Virtuoso Travel, who MTA are a member of. #keepdreaming #withyouallyheway

18.01.2022 Yes, we understand you may be feeling some level of Trangry too. Here are some tips we’ve come up with to ditch this feeling: Step 1. Look at photos from you...r last holiday. Step 2. Find travel inspiration for your ‘where to next’ destination. Step 3. Watch your fav travel movies. As we stay home, stay safe. Let’s be reminded we will get through this together <3 #mtatravel #supportourtravelindustry #staysafe

18.01.2022 How is everyone? With the Tourism Minister speaking over the weekend about international travel not resuming for quite some time, possibly into 2021, it was hard news to swallow as a travel advisor, business owner and traveller! While I have stopped even attempting to predict when travel will resume again, it will! Eventually. Then we will all be going on holidays at once, just to get out of the house! ... Currently, travel plans are being cancelled through to the end of May and June, depending on the type of travel, and it will be a rolling scenario from there. As the lockdown and travel bans continue, airlines, hotels, tour operators, cruise lines and all travel providers are extending and changing their cancellation and change procedures in line with the current situation. As a travel advisor, I am on top of all these changes, which are happening daily across the industry, to make sure I am doing the best by my clients in terms of getting the maximum refund or credit back to them and updating them with new information as it's relevant to each individual. So, when will we all be able to travel again? Honestly, your guess is as good as mine - these are unchartered waters! But it is likely we'll be able to holiday domestically before we can venture abroad. Which, honestly, is great! There is so much to see in our beautiful country and the boost to local economies will be well needed. I want to hear your thoughts....are you going to holiday in Australia when we can? Or are you saving up the money and time to jet overseas as soon as borders open? Oh, by the way, did you know I'm an expert at arranging domestic travel? You do now! ;) #withyoualltheway #inlovewithtravel

17.01.2022 When most people visit the South Island, they arrive in Christchurch and head south. But arguably the best-kept secret of the South Island is up north in Nelson... Discover the best of it with our 6 Day Wines, Brews and Views Tour Over 6 days, Indulge in thermal pools, freshly brewed craft beers, and award-winning wines amidst the stunning natural landscape of the Nelson Tasman.

15.01.2022 When can we travel? Not yet! This afternoon, the government released a 3 step plan to reducing restrictions which will hopefully have us travelling within Australia by mid-July. Then, it has been predicted, that we'll be able to cross the Tasman to NZ by September. Should we book travel for July? Not yet! ... These are just plans and predictions for now and will be subject to a lot of things falling into place and of course, no steepening of the curve of covid-19 cases. So, for now, until travel is definitely legal again, start planning but hold off booking anything unless it has flexible booking conditions and can be changed and/or cancelled without penalties. While I'm not taking bookings until restrictions are removed, if you have travel on your mind, get in touch! I can help you design your next holiday, put together an itinerary and have everything ready to go for when we get the green light! Remember, keep your dates very flexible, focus on domestic and NZ for the remainder of this year for now then further afield for 2021. I'll start posting lots of Australian and NZ travel inspo for you next week! [email protected]

15.01.2022 Hi! It's been a while.... With all that's happened in 2020, just thought I'd better let you know that I'm still here! I took a big step back from travel for a few months - partly because there wasn't much to do, but mostly I needed the mental break. The first 6 months of border closures took a toll, with the continuing cancellations and working tirelessly to recoup as much as I could for my clients. Each and every one was heartbreaking but I am so grateful to my amazing clie...nts and friends who showed so much patience and understanding while refunds took so long to trickle back. There were a few times I was going to call it quits, but how do you give up something you love so much?! So, I'm am definitely still here, definitely still looking forward to once again booking travel (and travelling!). During my travel hiatus, I have started working part time for the amazing Johanna at Inspirit Mind & Body Johanna Davies which I have loved and will continue, even once travel resumes. I am also half way through studying to become a yoga teacher so keep an eye out for retreats and workshops that will be coming your way in 2021 in conjunction with Inspirit! In the meantime, I will slowly return as travel slowly resumes. To reduce any time and money risks to you or myself due to any future travel restrictions, I am currently not taking any international or cruise enquiries. This will continue until borders reopen with little or no risk of them reclosing. However, if you'd like to talk domestic travel for 2021, please send me a message and we'll see if we can work together to get you travelling again. Have a wonderful Christmas!

15.01.2022 Okay, prepare for some awesomeness! The team at Bench Africa have put together an African themed work book for the kids! Introducing: Bench Africa Home's Cool!... It's a fun, educational pack for young kids that is perfect for keeping them entertained and there's a range of activities depending on your child's age. Download it for free and use it! (there will be another one next week as well as one coming for older kids to help them learn biology, photography and more!) Yes, it's educational, but it's so fun and will definitely ignite the love of Africa in the kids and they'll want to learn more. https://www.dropbox.com//iw6mbj/AAC7WMzVwu9kO80RBx5dgHI_a

12.01.2022 @adelaideairport bringing the laughs...and truths!

12.01.2022 Repost from @richardbranson Yes, @virginaustralia has today gone into voluntary administration - this allows them to continue to operate while they 'recapitalise and work on a restructure, reset and potentially, a reboot'. This is not the end of the airline and there is very strong support to see Virgin Australia continue to operate. ... They have been amazing to deal with over the years, both as a traveller and as an agent, which can't be said for all airlines. Let's all cross our fingers for this awesome airline to come out the other side bigger and brighter than before.

It was just enough to get us through what was to come! Hopefully we'll be back on the gold coast celebrating our industry and travel again soon.

05.01.2022 And the winners are...... Keil (1st) and JoJo (2nd)!! Please send me your email addresses and I'll get your vouchers to you. Thanks everyone for playing!!

05.01.2022 Here is an amazing and concise explanation from Dennis Bunnik, chairman of CATO about the current situation in travel, why refunds are taking so long and why credits are being offered over refunds in many cases. We in the travel industry feel the frustration as much as you do and a lot of us are all waiting on refunds for our own cancelled holidays as well. The Emirates example in the video shows just how many cancellations and refunds are being processed by this one airlin...e, which is hundreds of thousands more than usual. Add on top of this similar situations for every component of a holiday which could include flights, a cruise, hotel stays, car hire, day tours etc. As an industry, we are all doing as much as we can for our clients, as quickly as we can under these crazy circumstances. This is a very unique time in our history which has caused immense strain across many industries all over world, with the travel and tourism sector hit incredibly hard over such a long period of time. Personally, a huge thank you to my clients for all the support, understanding and patience I have received over the last few months, with more cancellations and refunds/credits to manage. It's been a rubbish, heart breaking time, but we're getting through it slowly and there is light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully we'll all be back on holidays soon!

04.01.2022 When youve got to get your travel fix any way you can!

04.01.2022 To our valued customers, ...ambition leads me not only farther than any other man has been before me, but as far as I think it possible for man to go..." Captain James R. Cook, March 1774 This ambition to travel inspires us to see and experience places and cultures both near and far and has driven Helloworld, since 1954, to give you the best possible advice and service planning and delivering your holiday dreams and your corporate travel needs.... Now, those ambitions and desires have been put on hold as the world engages in one almighty effort to thwart the spread of COVID-19. This crisis will come to pass and once again we will take to the skies, take to the beaches, take to the ski slopes and cruise the seven oceans. But in the meantime, all our operations are working hard to ensure we get our customers home, that we re-book or cancel existing bookings for the next 4-6 months, process credits and refunds from our many supplier partners around the world and keep up to date with the evolving Government advisories. Our 1,400 plus travel agencies and 400 plus Mobile Travel Advisors around Australia are available and working with their customers to manage the current circumstances. If your agency is not able to operate at their premises due to appropriate State restrictions, they are working from home and can be contacted on their normal business numbers... So from all of us, we thank you for your support and patience during these difficult times. We look forward to once again planning and delivering your dream holidays and corporate travel needs and wish you all the very best over the coming weeks as we Stay Home and do the right thing. #mtatravel #helloworldau #withyoualltheway

02.01.2022 #funfact did you know #Germany originally started the Easter egg hunt tradition? As well as the Easter egg hunt, they also had a big Easter dinner. Easter lamb, chicken and eggs are typical dishes for this meal, which in Catholic parts of Germany is also a celebration of the end of Lent. Hope you have a safe and very fun Easter!

For those who are looking for an intimate cruising experience (max 8 guests) in one of Australia's most remote reaches, this is for you!

01.01.2022 I love hotels! They are the epitome of luxury to me - a place where food comes to your room, your bed is made for you and everything you need is in a nicely decorated, albeit small, space. But all being in one room has its down side when you start travelling with kids. Because their bedtime means quiet time for everyone! So here are my top 5 tips for sharing a hotel room with your little family members...... 1. Try to book a room with seperate beds. That way, once your kid/s is asleep, you can still be awake with lamps/screens on the other one without disturbing them too much. 2. Utilise your balcony if you have one! It becomes your instant lounge room once the littles are asleep - with the door is closed, you can continue conversations with beverages without having to whisper. Plus ... The view! 3. Rest time is important when travelling with kids to recharge the batteries between exploring. But a hotel room often doesn't allow much space to spread out. So pack (or hire at your destination) some quiet fun for your kids during down time at the hotel. Think Lego, colouring in, story books etc. Some hotels offer kids packs so check with your travel agent or at the hotel when planning. 4. Pack yourself headphones and a book! If the kidlets are sleeping or watching cartoons, you can still relax with a good book and your own music, or watch your own show, with an actual plot, streaming on your device. Easy sanity saver without taking up much room! 5. Relish the extra special time with them! Hotel rooms make for great bed snuggles and sleep ins - order room service breakfast and watch tv together in bed. Something that would never happen at home, makes it extra special and a beautiful way to start the day! #travelwithkids #familytravel #luxurytravel #traveltips #top5 #travelwithapringle #holidayherethisyear #traveladdict #hotellife #ilovetravel #kidstravel #supportlocaltownsville
