Catherine's biography

Catherine’s passion for travel has been burning for as long as she can remember! Having grown up in America’s Midwest, she has always wanted to see the world and has visited over 70 countries. Tanzania is her favourite country so far, because of its wonderful people, vibrant culture – and of course its wildlife! While at university Catherine sailed around the world, and afterwards she went to Tanzania to teach English. Catherine’s time in Tanzania and exploring neighbouring countries inspired her to pursue a career in the travel industry – and she hasn’t looked back since!  

Most memorable experience

Trying to pick just one memorable experience is very difficult for me! One of my most enduring (and favourite) memories during my travels has been gorilla tracking in Uganda with my best friend. We watched a gorilla family interact with one another for a bit and then carried on (you’re only allowed so much time with them). All of a sudden, a baby gorilla fell from a tree nearly on top of us! We just stood there, staring at this baby gorilla who was also staring back at us! He then stood up and climbed back up the tree!
