Australia Specialist

I first visited Australia when I moved there for a year as an undergraduate exchange student. Based in Sydney, I fell in love with the city’s coastal walks, incredible restaurants and vibrant atmosphere. From snorkelling with sea turtles to road-tripping the Great Ocean Road, I was captivated by the range of experiences I gained from exploring places such as Perth, Tasmania, Uluru, Melbourne and the East Coast. 

I have traveled extensively throughout Europe, Southeast Asia and Central America but it’s Australia’s stunning natural landscapes and laidback lifestyle that make it my favorite destination by far. Having studied a Master's degree in Sustainability, I am excited to promote travel experiences that not only showcase the beauty of Australia but ensure its preservation for generations to come.

Sydney Rock Oysters

What’s the best local dish you’ve tasted?

Sydney Rock Oysters are a particular favorite of mine as they have a unique flavor that is the perfect balance between briny and sweet. In my opinion, they epitomize the best of Australian cuisine as they are fresh, flavorful and deeply rooted in the country’s coastal heritage.

Sounds of Silence dinner, Uluru

What's your most vivid travel moment?

Dining on a feast of bushtucker treats whilst the sun set over Uluru, is something I’ll never forget. Set in the heart of the Outback, accompanied by the sounds of a didgeridoo, this alfresco dining experience was really special. After a delicious three-course meal we spent the rest of the evening under the stars listening to an Anangu storyteller speak of Aboriginal Dreamtime and an astronomer taking us on a journey through the constellations of the Southern night sky. It was an evening that perfectly captured the beauty and wonder of Australia's nature and cultural heritage.

Aboriginal rock art, Kakadu National Park

Which book film or artwork captures Australia the most

I love the vibrancy and storytelling of Aboriginal artwork and think it captures the connection between people and land so central to the Australian identity. Aboriginal artists convey profound respect for the natural world through depictions of animals, plants and humans as part of a larger cosmic order that fosters an appreciation for the interconnectedness of all living things. Such imagery embodies the value of environmental stewardship and sustainable living as well as the richness of the country’s heritage and wisdom of its oldest cultures. Some great pieces can be found in Sydney’s Yiribana Gallery and Museum of Contemporary Art.
