Meet amy

Perhaps in a past life I was an explorer like Christopher Columbus, as ever since I was a young girl I have been fascinated in the world around me. This sense of adventure led me to a career in travel and it is a career that continues to surprise, inspire and challenge me daily.

The Travel Elixir was born of my desire to craft immersive travel experiences that enrich, connect and inspire. Travel that goes beyond a checklist, and instead prioritises authentic connections with local communities, supports family-owned properties that give back meaningfully and offers the opportunity to understand the culture and customs of the places we visit.

The Travel Elixir exists for those travellers who love the finer things, but value authenticity just as much as luxury.

Some of my favourite travel experiences so far


  • Swimming in the stunning turquoise waters of the Maldives
