San Francisco California, USA. My parents drove to the city(we lived nearly an hour away) because my mum heard they served wine to the patients… she is not going to be impressed that I shared this but I love this about her.
I am a ‘digital tourism geek.” I love reading a variety of digital tourism and marketing forums and devour websites like TNOOZ, eyefortravel and Skift daily trend reports
VR – Virtual Reality. It isn’t really future technology, it’s available and used already but it is its potential for tourism that I find so exciting. I believe it offers the most emotive and engaging marketing tool to date. It allows those that can’t travel for whatever reason whether it’s financial or physical, to experience other destinations, which opens up the world to a whole new audience. It’s so good on so many levels.
Any place off the map. I enjoy cities but crave natural landscapes with ocean views or open plains, mountains and wildlife to see experiences with my husband.

My iPhone for sure, hard to remember what life was like without one.
Facebook and LinkedIn (perhaps a clue to my generation!), they can be incredibly time consuming!...and a daily wordle
A chef! In fact 10 years down the lane, I’d love to run a café cum design gallery serving a fusion food inspired by Indian flavours with western influences. Not exactly a butter chicken pie but definitely a rose ‘n cardamom macaroon!

Japan. The food, the mountains, the owl cafes, the robots. It really has it all.

My ideal holiday is a serene escape to a Hawaiian beach, where the soothing sounds of the waves and the warmth of the sun create a perfect backdrop for quality time with my family. Whether it's building sandcastles, exploring the clear blue waters, or simply enjoying each other's company under the shade of swaying palm trees, the Hawaiian beach setting offers a blissful retreat that combines relaxation and cherished moments with my loved ones.
I am most excited about the future of virtual reality (VR). The immersive potential of VR technology opens up exciting possibilities across various domains, from gaming and entertainment to education and healthcare. The prospect of being able to transport oneself to different environments and experiences seamlessly is not only thrilling but also holds immense potential for revolutionizing how we learn, connect, and engage with content. As VR technology continues to advance, I look forward to its integration into everyday life, offering novel and transformative experiences that were once limited to our imaginations.
If I were to have a pet robot, its primary function would be to assist with household chores, streamlining daily tasks and making life more efficient. This includes cleaning, organizing, and perhaps even assisting in meal preparation. Additionally, I would love for my robot companion to have a bodyguard function, ensuring both personal and home security. This dual-purpose robot would not only lighten my domestic workload but also provide an extra layer of safety and peace of mind in my daily life.
