Born and raised in Cape Town, Catherine has been lucky enough to spend most of her life travelling across Africa. Through her travels she has experienced some of the most unique areas and properties the continent has to offer, developing a weakness for sunsets and al fresco showers. With a five year stint in London and another 4 years in Lisbon, she has travelled to many far-flung corners of the world in addition to her home continent. Catherine has spent the last 17 years dedicated to designing stylish, authentic and meaningful trips for her travellers, introducing them to the countries she loves. When she’s not busy arranging adventures of a lifetime, Catherine can be found exploring the breadths of Portugal where she immigrated with her family in 2023.
A: I like to see as much as possible when visiting a new area but enjoy an opportunity for a slower day here and there to really 'drink a place in' and get a true sense of where I am.
A: Japan and Iceland – the scenery, culture and food; they seem completely different to anywhere else I have travelled to! But truly, Africa will never get old…Its beauty and warmth draw you in every time.
A: Sri Lanka for its tropical, abundant landscapes and king coconut trees as far as the eye can see, Greece for its incredible selection of islands, warm salty breezes and delicious local fare and Zimbabwe for its sheer beauty, magnificent wildlife and the kindest people.
