Latin America and Middle East are two places where I will visit again and again, for the captivating scenery and rich local culture. It gives me joy planning a vacation to such destinations where it’s still very much unexplored, topping with a little mystery and a little adventure.
I enjoy talking to our guests and sharing about these insightful and authentic cultural experiences, and ways to enjoy them without compromising much of their luxury comfort. When I travel, I like to explore unknown places on foot or on a bicycle, searching for little gems frequented by the locals, making stops at ice-cream palours or coffee shops for people watching, anywhere that will take me away from the crowds.
