OUR TEAM

I have worked in the travel industry for over 9 years. Mainly dealing with accommodation and events, including travel planning for the 2014 commonwealth games in my home-town, Glasgow.

Originally from a small coastal village in South Wales I grew up surrounded by dramatic landscapes and incredible natural splendour. This fuelled a lifelong passion in wildlife and the great outdoors and I have since travelled around the world in a quest to experience both in equal measure. 

I have been passionate about travel since an early age, spending my childhood travelling to America, Canada, Asia and Europe, I went on to study Travel management at university which gave me great opportunities to work in America and led me to undertake a trip of a lifetime around the world!

Growing up I was lucky enough to travel to some amazing places including USA, Morocco and Australia, but also loved weekends away in Scotland in our trusty caravan and visiting the islands of arran, Mull and Tiree.

Having found an interest in travel at an early age I set off travelling after graduating with a degree in Marketing and Tourism in 2001.  I ended up casually working as I travelled, each job allowing me to travel to the next destination.

I have spent the last nine years working in the Sail Training Industry, working my way up to Skipper.  I managed youth work voyages on the beautiful West Coast of Scotland and worked with some amazing people over this time. 

Being born and raised in Scotland, all of my family holidays were spent traveling around the country, spending long weekends and school holidays in places like the lake district or down on the beautiful coast of Cornwall.

My passion for travel and adventure came from the wonderful trips and holidays my parents took me on as a child. We visited various different places in Europe, America as well as regular trips around Scotland, to North Uist and Inverness to visit family.

I've worked in travel and tourism for over 9 years now and I have been with Macs Adventure since 2014. I love going on holiday and visiting interesting places so there really is no better way to spend my working day, helping our customers plan their adventures to fantastic locations all over the world.< ...

Growing up in the small village of Comrie in Perthshire, my love of adventure and the outdoors began with exploring the surrounding countryside and family holidays to the West coast which involved a lot of walking, fishing in hill lochs and picnics.

I arrived in Scotland after living in Italy, Portugal, and Galicia, where I come from. I like to learn about other cultures while being part of the community. I was lucky to be able to do so on several occasions while attending language courses in different parts of the world.

My love of travel started at a young age, stemming from my parents’ love of holidays, meaning I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time visiting destinations abroad, throughout the UK, and seeing much of my homeland, Scotland.

I was raised in Clermont-Ferrand which is in Auvergne, a stunning volcanic landscape (where the water Volvic comes from!). After I graduated in Tourism in 2012, I decided to move to Scotland for 6 months with the Leonardo da Vinci program. 

I was born and raised in Glasgow but absolutely love to travel and have been lucky enough to travel a fair bit.  I love both city breaks and exploring off the beaten path.  

I have always loved being outdoors and keeping active.  Growing up I spent weekends exploring Scotland and holidays with my family and friends around the UK and Europe.

Holidays have always been spent camping in Scotland or snorkelling and adventuring in beautiful sunny countries which encouraged me to study a degree in Outdoor Pursuits Management and graduating this year. 

Having come from a travel industry background I have been involved in many aspects, cabin crew, hotel receptionist, travel agent, but to name a few, I have always been drawn to the wonderful world of travel.

I moved to Scotland 6 years ago from Italy with the desire to have new experiences, learn English and meet new people. I have met so many great people and went onto some fantastic adventures. 

I grew up on a croft in the remote West Coast of the Scottish Highlands and developed a love for the mountains, sea and photography from a young age.

Travelling has always been a huge passion of mine ever since I was a child. My parents used to take my siblings and I on holidays all over Europe from quite a young age, which is something that I am truly grateful for as it ignited the love for exploring new places and meeting new people that I have today.
