If you could go to any city in the world, where would you go? Why?

Barcelona – because everyone who has been there says it’s wonderful; or Dublin because I really must visit Ireland one day.


What’s the strangest exotic food you’ve had while on vacation?

Conch Stew in Grand Cayman.


What’s the first thing you do once you come back home from a trip?

Have a cup of tea – it tastes better at home every time!


What is the most extravagant trip you’ve ever booked?

We had booked a cruise with extra nights and flights to visit Italy and Greece. There were lots of tours, flights, and hotel stays to plan, but it was the best trip ever!


Do you have a hidden talent?

Not so much a talent but more of a hobby: I love to ride horses.


What recipe are you famous for making?

Probably my rosé pasta or sun-dried tomato meatloaf (yum!)
