✨Untold Stories of Africa ✨

Africa is more than lions, lodges, and luxury safaris.
It is a continent of rituals, sacrifices, protection, and pain carried quietly in people’s bodies.

In parts of South Africa, some families once followed a practice called ingqithi: removing the tip of a toddler’s finger as a way to shield them from illness, misfortune, or spiritual danger.
�This image is not about shock; it is about seeing the person before the postcard, and remembering that Africa’s deepest stories live in its people, not just its landscapes.

I will share more about our trip to South Africa but I have always been more curious about people, culture and traditions.

✨Celebrating sacrifice & Service Through Travel✨

If you want to honour the past, explore the world and experience them.
This Remembrance Day, reflect on our history by discovering places where stories and memories live on—travel allows us to experience and connect with destinations that keep their legacies alive.

✨Celebrating Jane Goodall and her legacy✨

Today I want to honor Jane Goodall, a true pioneer whose life’s work has changed the way we see our planet.

From her groundbreaking research with chimpanzees in Tanzania to her tireless advocacy for conservation and animal welfare, she has shown the world that science and compassion go hand in hand.

Her legacy isn’t just about discovering that chimpanzees use tools, or understanding their complex social lives — it’s about inspiring all of us to live with greater respect for nature and to take responsibility for protecting it.

Jane’s voice reminds us that every action, no matter how small, makes a difference. 🌍✨

Here’s to a woman who has spent her life giving a voice to those who cannot speak, and who continues to inspire generations to care, protect, and act. 💚🐒

✨Next Adventure: Italy ✨

I’m kicking off my next adventure in Italy 🇮🇹 — starting from Venice, then to Bologna, and finally arriving in Tuscany for a travel trade expo and series of workshops. ✨

I travel not just for the love of it, but to personally explore destinations, connect with partners, and discover unique experiences that I can bring back to my clients.

This is the heart of what makes working with a travel concierge so valuable — first-hand knowledge and trusted connections. 🌍💼

🌍✈️ September 27 – World Tourism Day

Today we celebrate the power of tourism—an industry that connects people, bridges cultures, and creates opportunities for communities across the globe.

Tourism is more than just travel; it’s about sharing experiences, fostering understanding, and building a future that values sustainability, innovation, and growth. Every journey leaves an imprint—not only on travelers, but also on the destinations and the people who welcome them.

We are proud to be part of this incredible sector, and grateful to our partners, clients, and colleagues who help create travel that inspires, connects, and transforms.

✨ Here’s to a tourism with purpose.
Happy World Tourism Day!

✨Destination Spotlight- Alaska & Yukon

Alaska & Yukon: Following the Gold Rush Route 🧭

Back in Alaska—but this time, I’m going deeper. I have done Alaska cruises before but this trip combines a classic cruise with an epic land adventure through the historic Gold Rush route, all the way into the Yukon (my first time there!).

I’ll be sharing the landscapes, legends, and little moments that make this journey so special—glaciers, trains, wild frontiers, and stories from the trail.

Follow along as I trace the path of the dreamers and fortune-seekers who once ventured north in search of gold and adventure.

Follow Leila’s trip to Australia through stories and highlights.Here are some fun facts about Koalas:🌿 They’re Not Bears! – Koalas are often called “koala bears,” but they’re actually marsupials, more closely related to kangaroos and wombats.😴 Sleepyheads – Koalas sleep up to 18-22 hours a day because their eucalyptus diet is low in energy. Talk about a dream life!🌱 Eucalyptus Experts – They eat only eucalyptus leaves and can consume up to 1 kg (2.2 lbs) a day! Their specialized stomach helps detoxify the otherwise poisonous leaves.👶 Built-in Baby Pouch – Like kangaroos, koala moms carry their tiny babies (called joeys) in a pouch for about six months before they start exploring the outside world.🖤 Unique Fingerprints – Koalas have fingerprints almost identical to humans, so much so that they can confuse forensic investigators!👂 Super Hearing – Despite their cute, round ears, koalas have excellent hearing, which helps them detect danger in the wild.📢 Deep Voices – Male koalas make loud, deep grunting sounds (called bellows) to attract mates, even though they look small and cuddly.💧 They Rarely Drink Water – The word “koala” comes from an Aboriginal word meaning “no water” because they get most of their hydration from eucalyptus leaves.🌍 They Need Our Help – Koalas are classified as endangered due to habitat loss, climate change, and disease. Every conservation effort counts!Which of these koala facts surprised you the most? 🐨💚
