Travel Planning
I have spent more than thirty years solo traveling, working, writing and tour guiding around India, South East Asia, New Zealand, Rarotonga and Tonga.
Along the way I have met and maintained contact with many tour operators, accommodation and transport providers.
I have test driven many! Now I have a community of trusted people who are like second family to me.
I specialise in earth conscious ethical travel and I love to encourage women to explore the world
My areas of expertise areAotearoa (New Zealand) - my homeland where my unique position as an indigenous woman (basically this means I am related to almost everyone Māori) means that I am able to offer our guests a true experience. Also I pretty much know every bend in the road of my beautiful country.
I can help you design your travel plans to either country and am available to lead small group tours or individual travel.
I partner with The Road Trip New Zealand on request.India - I spent half my adult life in India. I consulted with travel companies and designed itineraries for and led solo and group travel.
My passion is textiles and health, talk to me about Ayurveda and medical tourism.
I have partnered with Dhruv Gupta who is the director of Get to Know India.

Armchair Travel
Not everyone is able to travel, I understand that. I have been obsessed with travel as a learning experience and a way to understand more about the diverse cultures on our lovely planet.
For me travel is an agent of peaceful understanding and my writings reflect that philosophy.
