All about Emilie
I’m now in my second year at the award-winning Miles Morgan Travel, and I'm loving every minute of it. I’ve got a passion for travel, and working in this industry is a perfect way to explore it, and share it with excited customers, and the inspiring colleagues that I work with. Whether it's a bucket list trip, a cruise, or an indulgent week in the sun, I get great satisfaction from providing our customers with an unforgettable holiday; having worked in retail for most of my career, I’ve found a love for helping people, and delivering warm and welcoming customer service.
My most treasured travel memory was in October 2022: I travelled to Canada, staying in the wonderful Toronto. I took a day-trip to Niagara Falls, which was absolutely breathtaking, and also visited the quaint little town of Niagara-on-the-Lake, set comfortably on the shores of Lake Ontario. The architecture is unbelievably beautiful, and I’ve now set my heart on exploring other parts of Canada, particularly British Columbia. I’m training to become a Canada Specialist – a perfect excuse to go back!
I’ve also travelled Europe quite extensively and have a special fondness for Greece. In 2019, I spent ten idyllic days in Nissaki, Corfu, snorkelling with tropical fish, and wandering the beautiful, cobbled streets of Corfu town. More recently, I visited Pefkos, Rhodes – a wonderful resort, with the picturesque Lindos and the Acropolis only a stone’s throw away. The iconic Rhodes Town isn’t far either and a local bus shuttles there regularly, for a small charge. The true highlight, though, was renting a speedboat for the day – we explored gorgeous little bays and cruised across the Greek waters in baking sunshine. My favourite was Navarone Bay – I dream of going back!
I’ve also been introduced to cruising since working for Miles Morgan Travel, a world I’d never imagined I’d find myself in. It’s incredible: the food was outstanding, the crew’s service was unmatched, and the itinerary ticked off Amsterdam and Rotterdam, two places I’ve always wanted to visit! I’d thoroughly recommend cruising for customers from any walk of life, and I’ve got my eye on plenty more: my dream being an Alaskan cruise after a train ride on the Rocky Mountaineer.
I look forward to seeing you in our Wells branch, and helping you create the holiday you’ve always dreamed of.
