Sinead Cunningham: D&A Sales Specialist

Areas of expertise: Italy, Croatia, Greece, Hungary, Romania, Slovenia Turkey and the Camino

I joined the Macs team in March 2016 this year as a Destination & Adventure specialist. I fell in love with travelling when I spent 7 months studying in Italy– I came home to Scotland with a broader perspective on life, new friends from all over the world and the need to explore the world (and slightly more round from the excessive wine, gelato and pasta!) 

As soon as I graduated I knew I had to either take a gap year and travel or hopefully find a job where I can travel and share my passion with others and give them the best travel experience – and along came Macs!  

I travelled a lot during my time in Italy - I lived in the North close to Milan however I spent my weekends at the lakes or planning my next adventure.  I spent some time in Tuscany but also visited Rome, Venice and skied on the Swiss Alps. This year I have a trip to Norway planned in June which I’m really excited about! I also plan on visiting Southern Italy late summer.

My love of exploring Europe has meant I’ve missed out on the beautiful scenery of my homeland so last year I had an incredible adventure in the Isle of Skye – I was stunned at its beauty, it was the most peaceful 4 days I’ve ever had.
