If you chartered a yacht, what would you do, who would take and where would you go: Go somewhere that’s just not the same when you do it on land – Patagonia, Tonga, Antarctica, the Norwegian Fjords, even Croatia and Greece. These are destinations that a yacht really exemplifies the itinerary and gives you access to places you never could on land. I would take my most adventurous group of friends to make the most of watertoys, hikes, heli-skiing, meeting local communities and eating fresh food from the area.
Your favourite place to travel to and why: I live in New York City so really anywhere to escape the hustle and bustle is a great escape! If I had to pick one place, I’d say Ireland. My first-time visiting was when I was young with my grandfather who was able to tell us all about our ancestry and travel to visit our distant cousins. I returned to Galway for three months for study abroad in college followed by a reunion trip a few years back. The people, history, and of course, the craic, make you feel at home the moment you arrive.
Best experience you have had and why: Snowmobiling on a glacier in Iceland. Tied with hiking 21 miles for 15 hours up Mount Toubkal, the tallest mountain in Northern Africa – but I’m still hurting from that one!
