Meet the Ecruising Crew

Travel has become more than just a hobby for me, it has become more of a lifestyle! I have travelled from such a very young age, and since then travelled extensively around the world. I have been fortunate to travel to over 30 countries, been on over 40 different ships ranging from the world’s largest ship, to the most luxurious and even iconic rail journeys such as the Indian Pacific and The Ghan! You know you’re addicted to travel when you plan a holiday while on an existing trip!

From my experience travelling to many places, I am confident to say a cruise holiday is the way to go. There is nothing better than enjoying a cocktail by the pool docked in a spectacular and unique port, then waking up the following morning in another port stressed free, relaxed and ready to explore what the world has to offer.

I have been in the travel industry for more than 20 years and am excited to now learn everything about the cruising industry with ecruising. I have travelled to America, Hawaii, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Bali and even did a South Pacific cruise on the old Fairstar the fun ship many years ago. I would one day love to explore Europe, but so far my favourite place to visit is New York.

Travel is in my blood, it is my passion and I have been very fortunate to travel to around 40 countries during my life, but I am always keen to see and experience more.

I never tire of visiting Europe, and still have a few countries left to visit, so I can tick off the whole map of Europe. More recently I have been visiting the Americas, south and north and can’t wait to see more of this diverse part of the world. I took my first cruise 6 years ago, and am now hooked on cruising and love hearing others stories of cruises they have been on – by far the most relaxing and hassle free of any kind of travel. To have the majority of your holiday costs included in your cruise fare is amazing value, leaving your time to enjoy your experience. Where else can you wake up in a different port every day and enjoy so many activities, entertainment and dining options just a short stroll from your cabin…

I am very excited to be part of the Ecruising team and very much look forward to helping you plan and book your next cruise holiday and making your holiday one to remember.

I was born and raised in Indonesia, beautiful country with a lot of interesting places to visit. Since I was a kid, I’ve always been dreaming to travel around the world. For me, travelling is not only to experience new things, it’s also to meet new people and of course to taste the food.

I will never forget all of the experiences. Especially when I went to China, explored The Great Barrier Reef, had so much fun with the rides in Tokyo Disneyland and went to amazing places in Tasmania. I won’t stop to create more beautiful memories and next on my list would be Greece!

8 years of overseas travel has taken me to countries like Indonesia, Thailand, The Philippines, New Caledonia & Vanuatu (P&O Cruising) the USA, Canada, New Zealand and a number of countries in Europe. I have a strong passion for travel and love meeting new people, experiencing new things (especially food) and immersing in other cultures. Travel really does feed the soul and I continuously look forward to what destination comes next. I am honoured to be a part of the ecruising.travel team and love sharing all the exciting products we have to offer!

Travel and Tourism has always been a passion since I was a girl, parents would travel to multiple countries such as Panama, Chile, Easter Island, Tahiti, New Zealand due to both parents working for an airline industry I have taken on board to continue the dream with my own family. With over 20 years in finance accounting role it bring a wealth of knowledge gained throughout my career in earlier travel industry & airline related roles.

Having the opportunity to explore the world with my own family to countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Denmark, Belgium, France, Samoa, Fiji and Cook Islands. Every experience, destination and person that I meet changes me and my family… and before I knew it, travel taught me a few things about myself.

Super grateful for being part of the Ecruising team, have never been on a cruise so yes I would definitely be booking the next cruise holiday.

I like to think my love of travel started at the early age of 5 when I sailed with my family on the Chandris Lines, SS Australis, from Sydney to Southampton. A grand adventure lasting 4 weeks and leading to a whole new life on the other side of the world. Growing up in UK, I was fortunate to travel throughout Europe, along with learning new languages, German and French, at school and through my University Degree back in Sydney. This sparked my interest in learning about other cultures and their native people, along with discovering new landscapes. Since those formative years, I have travelled extensively worldwide, with a constant yearning to discover new destinations.

I feel blessed to have joined the travel industry 25 years ago, which enabled me to fulfil my passion for continuing my journeys around the globe, both through work and adventures with family and friends. I am truly grateful to have grown both personally and professionally within all my travel roles and to now be working within the Ecruising team, applying my sales, customer service and leadership skills, whilst delving further into the ever evolving world of cruising.

Some highlights of my own travel experiences: living in an Austrian castle dating back to 800AD, working as a nanny to a Prince; flying over the beautifully lush island of Kauai, Hawaii in a helicopter; wandering amongst the hill tribe Hmong people in Sapa, Northern Vietnam, sailing around the Aeolian Islands on board a luxury catamaran with close friends; climbing a live volcano on Stromboli at sunset to see the lava exploding like fireworks into the night sky.

Our experienced and cruise savvy Sales team are here to help create memorable cruise experiences for our valued customers. We look forward to planning your next travel adventure and making your cruise dreams a reality.

For me, this Hans Christian Andersen quote sums up my passion for travel and cruising: "To move, to breathe, to fly, to float. To roam the roads of lands remote, to travel is to live".

After 17 years on travelling and working in various parts of the travel industry, as expected, I could tell you some stories!...

Instead I could tell you about the beauty of Christmas in Lapland with Santa and the Northern lights. I could tell you about spending New Years Eve feeling the fireworks on a beach in Bali or in the main square in Reykjavik. I could tell you about climbing steps to the most amazing view of Machu Picchu compared to climbing steps to the ruins of Draculas Castle in Romania. I can compare beauty of beaches in Sri Lanka, Cuba, El Salvador or Thailand, to the beauty of the Taj Mahal.

I can tell you about snorkelling the Blue Hole in Belize to swimming with the whale sharks at Ningaloo, or seeing a sunrise in the Sahara or over Uluru. We could talk about shopping in New York or eating hummus in Israel.

However, I would prefer to hear your stories about your adventures, and where you are going next.

Travel is what I live for. It is always an eye-opening, exciting and often humbling adventure. I have been fortunate enough to travel to 22 countries and counting. I have danced with Brazilians at Carnival, drank with Germans at Oktoberfest and celebrated Tet in Vietnam. I have been in the travel industry for 5 years and I would not work anywhere else – I have certainly found my calling. I am a fairly recent convert to cruising but the value and experiences for this type of travel are hard to beat. As a consultant at Ecruising, I have the opportunity to share my passion, experience and love for travel with all of our customers.

I cannot wait to help you have amazing travel experiences and make memories for you to carry with you during your trip and beyond.

2020 marks my 13th year in the Tourism industry & for any guests that have been booking with ecruising for some time may remember my name & face from past ship inspections or even pier visits with Kev the Kombi as I worked for ecruising previously, After a few years of exploring other avenues in the travel industry, I am delighted to be back with the ecruising family!

I have been extremely lucky to experience some amazing places like the breathtaking sight of El Capitan in Yosemite, Shannon Falls in Canada or waking up with a different island view everyday on NCL’s pride of America around the Hawaiian Islands, Cruising for me is something that is timeless, easy and great value, I am so glad to be back an I am looking forward to helping you find the perfect holiday very soon!

Born and raised in Hong Kong, the passion in travel runs in the blood of my family. Travel was always considered as a luxury experience during my parents’ time. But they would sign us up as often as they can afford, for short trips around China (think about it as road trips in Australia except that they are seat-in-coach group tours) to show us how to respect, love and enjoy different cultures. Since then, I am very grateful to have the chances travelling to Mongolia, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia, England and France. I dream that one day I can climb a volcano crater, visit the Alps and see the polar light show.

Travel has really widened my horizon and allowed me to experience and do things that I could have never done otherwise. While I do love a good read, you can never, ever catch the full experience of becoming part of a culture with just pages. The amount of personal growth which I gained outside of the books is simply unmeasurable. I strongly believe that cruising will definitely add a whole different level of experience to the journey of my life.

I am thankful to be part of the super dynamic team of eCruising who are all very passionate and experienced in travelling and cruising. Let us help you open a new and unforgettable page in the book of your story.
