Born and raised in the Scottish Borders, Emma has always been surrounded by nature and wildlife, so every day was a new adventure. Her curiosity and love of exploring started from a young age, so it was no surprise that as soon as Emma left school her travelling escapades could finally begin. From backpacking around Europe to volunteering in Fiji and immersing herself in different cultures and experiences, to then spending a year working and travelling around New Zealand, it was rather reluctantly that she eventually returned to the UK. 

Knowing that she wanted to work alongside like-minded people who shared the same interests she did, Emma knew that the travel industry was right for her, and has been working in luxury travel since 2019. Her passion for travel continues to grow as she learns more about each destination and what these fascinating and exciting places have to offer.

Number one unforgettable travel experience?

Sky diving in Fiji over the Great Sea Reef. The most memorable part of the skydive was seeing a full circle rainbow which was truly incredible to witness. However, every moment of Fiji was incredible, from walking through the village and saying ‘Bula’ (hello) to the locals every morning to dancing with the head of the village at a Cava ceremony. 

Top of your travel bucket list?

With a continuously growing bucket list that changes constantly it is impossible to pick just one. However, the top two on my list at the moment is to experience the Northern Lights in Iceland and to witness the Great Migration across the Serengeti and the Masai Mara in Africa. 

Who is your ultimate travel partner?

My sister! She has been with me since day 1 and is always the first one to say, “what’s the worst that can happen?” After doing a skydive at the age of 9, nothing will stop her.
