Villa Specialist
Matthew Corcoran
A little about me, I have worked in Travel since leaving school at the age of 16. Working for a range of different tourism roles within hotels, attractions, theater and much more. I love working in travel because you get to be the first point of contact for the customer, you get to suggest things which as a tourist you wouldn't know about and offer some niche products. Also I love travelling, I have been to some incredible places around the globe and have memories which will always be with me. Outside of work I enjoy traveling, going to the theater as much as I can and also music, from going to some amazing festivals to seeing some incredible artists and having a great time.
What is your favourite destination?
This is such a hard question but I'd have to say India. I've been lucky enough to visit this destination a few times and I've explored 6 different cities. Its such a beautiful country, I've seen so much from the Golden Temple to the Taj Mahal and of course, eat at some incredible dishes.
Which destination is top of your bucket list and why?
I have so many places I still want to visit but at the top of my list is San Francisco to visit Alcatraz Island and see the Golden Gate. I'd also love to visit Salzburg in Austria because The Sound of Music is my favorite musical and I'd love to see some of the filming locations.
How do you spend your time whilst on holiday?
When I am on holiday I love to meet new people, learn more about the destination, visit some of the best attractions and sample the local food. Oh and of course a bit of sun never goes a miss, catching up on a tan and visiting a water park is always great fun.
What's your top travel tip?
First of all decide if you want an active or relaxing holiday, there is something for everyone regardless of the destination. Make sure you know what your priories are, and choose a villa that suits your needs.
