LACEY KEMPTHORNE
TRAVEL CONSULTANT
After working in the same cafe/bakery since I was fifteen, I decided that I needed a fresh start in my life. I wanted to continue my passion for travel, so I applied for a travel consultant role at Newell’s Travel and started in December 2021.
I spent two years at college studying Travel and Tourism back in 2015. Once I completed the course, I started to work for Thomas Cook as a Transfer Representative. I lived and worked in Zante, which is now my home away from home. I was fortunate to have been able to work abroad, and I would recommend it to anyone.
Countries visited:
I have only visited Spain, Portugal and Greece. Still, I am very excited to travel to many more destinations in the future.
Favourite destination:
I will have to say Zante as it is my second home. I always stay in the Kalamaki area.
Last holiday:
My last trip was a girl’s holiday to Tenerife in December. Tenerife is my go-to destination when I need some sunshine in the winter months.
Where next?
I would love to go on a road trip around the USA, go island hopping around the Greek island or stay in a waterfront villa in the Maldives.
Travel tip:
My travel tip would be to plan your holiday well in advance instead of leaving it to the last minute.
Doing some research will give you some idea of what you want to see and where you want to go within your chosen destination.
