“My years in travel have given me many transferable skills for this brand new business venture, and I am so excited for this new opportunity. Launching my own travel business this year means so much to me. It allows me to build a career I love while still being present for my family, and it gives my customers the personalised service and flexibility they deserve. Having something that is truly my own motivates me to work even harder - it’s a chance to create something meaningful, to support people in making unforgettable memories, and to grow a business I can be genuinely proud of.
Lara specialises in City breaks and Family holidays but can advise on all types of leisure travel, including group bookings, family holidays, ski, cruises, and weddings.
Lara adds, “Using Travel Counsellors technology, I can search through thousands of travel options and create bespoke travel experiences based on my customers’ personal preferences. Running my business flexibly also means my customers can speak to me at a time that suits them, and I can take the time to really get to know them personally. “I think my customers will really value the personal, caring service and attention to detail I can offer as a Travel Counsellor, providing highly tailored travel and booking experiences.”
