Hi there,

I am Lina, your Independent Travel Agent.

​

Let me tell you a bit about me.

​

I'm Portuguese and I have been living in the UK for 9 years.

I have been a travel lover since my mum took me on the plane for the first time when I was 2 years old. I then grew up saying I wanted to be an air hostess, to later realise that I didn´t grew up tall enough for the job (unfortunate... or not).

 

I didn´t give up, so I decided to study Tourism and Hospitality at Uni and got my degree. In any moment I doubted I wanted to organise travel. My dream always have been creating product, organising trips, planning in detail someone´s holiday like if it was my own. I have always wanted to create memories for people.

​

I have worked in both leisure travel and business travel during my 15 years career of which I am very proud of. I have booked travel for universities, colleges, members of the government and well known organisations like WWF, Amnesty International, BBC, Red Cross, RCOG or CGDEV.

​

I have learned lots about the industry and the different ways to work out different holiday types. I keep improving my skills with training and reading about the destinations, its attractions, the best ways to explore them or what are the most unique experiences, off the beaten track.

​

I have travelled to some really exciting destinations like India, Egypt, Thailand amongst others, but ticking places of my huge bucket list is a work in progress.

​

After losing my job as a consequence of the pandemic we are going through, I have decided to take the step and finally launch my travel business, so I can pursue my passion and help others to turn their dream holidays into real experiences.
