Chelsea

Chelsea brings a wealth of retail travel experience to our team, combining industry know-how with a heartfelt passion for creating journeys that inspire.
After school, Chelsea spent several months living with a local family on the island of Madeira, Portugal. Then, following her university studies, she moved to the UK, where she spent two years living and travelling extensively throughout Europe, the UK, and the US.
Upon returning to Australia, Chelsea turned her lifelong passion into a profession, beginning her career in retail travel. She continues to love every aspect of the industry especially helping clients creating memorable journeys of their own.
Chelsea believes that some of the most unforgettable travel moments aren’t always the famous landmarks or bucket-list experiences, but rather the small, meaningful ones like gazing out the window while driving through a national park, or people watching on a bustling street in Rome. Her motto in life is to travel widely and savour the beauty in every moment.
