Just for Fun
Travel has this magical way of shaking the dust off your brain. One minute you’re staring at your own navel, the next you’re wide‑eyed, curious, and remembering there’s a whole world out there that doesn’t revolve around your to‑do list.
When I was a teenager, I was obsessed with Reader’s Digest—mainly the humour pages. I clipped the best bits and glued them into a scrapbook like some people collect stamps. Eventually my business Filofax became the grown‑up version: part diary, part comedy notebook, part “what on earth just happened on that fam trip” log.
One day, a few colleagues got hold of it. They decided my observations were far too funny to stay hidden in the leather binder. Their laughter ended up nudging me into a sales manager role… which then opened the door to becoming the UK director for a major travel consortium.
All from a Filofax full of travel‑fuelled nonsense. Proof that in this industry, curiosity—and a good sense of humour—can take you a very long way.
