About Kathy
My passion is the: Pursuit of your perfect holiday.
With more than 35 years in the travel industry, I'm still inspired by the prospect of new adventures, diverse cultures, and off-the-beaten-track experiences.
If I'm not booking those holidays for you, then I am certainly booking them for myself!
Ask me about any number of destinations I've visited around the globe, or better yet, challenge me to explore somewhere new - the answer is always YES! If I haven't been already, you know I'm curious and will deliver your perfect holiday using my extended network across MTA Travel and contacts within the industry.
With an eye for detail, thanks to my experience in corporate travel, no challenge is too big, no detail too small. I love offering exciting holiday experiences. I believe it's the comprehensive service, added inclusions, and nice touches that help create the memories as well as fabulous stories to bring home and share.
I'm not slowing down, and neither should you! Bring your bucket-list and contact me today. I can't wait to share the travel spirit and bring life into your next big adventure.
Previous experience
I was born in Zimbabwe and lived there for 21 years before moving to Cape Town, South Africa where I spent 15 years in the travel industry consulting in both leisure and corporate travel. I left the “Big 5” behind to become an “Aussie” in 2000 and later joined Jetset Travel Albany Creek where I worked closely with Travel Consultant, Kate Narracott. We worked hard, laughed lots, shared the same priorities of exceptional customer service and loyalty to our clients and a genuine love of fun, travel and adventure. We have travelled endlessly together.
Then an amazing opportunity presented itself for us to become MTA Mobile Travel Agents. We purchased the existing Jetset Travel Albany Creek and took it mobile offering an even more personal and exclusive service.
