With more than a decade of experience in travel, the thrill and love for adventure and exploration never left me. After every place I have visited, I would come back home feeling redefined!

I have always been fascinated with the colors of the Middle East: from the bustling souks of Morocco, deepest secrets of Egypt, the beautiful mosques of Iran, its rich history stretching all the way through the Silk Road to China. There are thousands of stories waiting to be told and there is so much to explore.

My favorite experience so far was cruising to Antarctica - the final frontier. It's breathtaking and nothing is just like it!

Travel opens my eyes to the beauty of the world. I enjoy being a part of Charlotte Travel and this industry because of the fast pace, interesting people and my ability to help support the team give the best service to their clients for their travel needs.

There is a Chinese saying that it is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.

He says: "There’s something incredibly fulfilling about guiding others on their journeys and enhancing their adventures with the insights I've gathered along the way."

Everything that happens to you in between is our concern. "I know well that my reputation and my business depends not on your satisfaction but on your delight". This is what we base our superior travel advisry services on: extensive experience and positive relationships.
