The Tales and Travels of Taylor Made PA – The Story of my Travels

Hello!

The Story of my own Travels

Its been a while since I last posted about my own Travels. 

Although i’ve had a great couple of years professionally. And Business is going great. And I thank everyone that has been supporting Taylor Made PA and trusting me with their Travel Plans. 

But personally. I’ve struggled sometimes. A lot. I lost my Nan at the end of 2021. And I kind of lost myself at the same time. 

And my travels this year are based around this. Wellness and Healing. Heart and Mind. 

 

Celebration Travels

I turn 50 this year. Yeah. I’m not sure how that happened either. Pretty sure I only turned 30 last year.

Travel has always been a big birthday focus for me. 

I went to Tenerife for my 21st Birthday with friends. Then my 30th I spent in Seville. On a work trip with Northampton Town Football Club! I thought it made a better story in years to come than a party! 

For my 40th Birthday, as I started planning a weekend in Marbella I was invited to a Wedding in Majorca. So plans changed and we headed for Magaluf. My friends flew home and I went over to the other side of the Island for the Wedding. 

And now it is 50. And I am heading to Bali with a stopover in Doha.  

 

Doha, Qatar

Doha or Qatar wasn’t originally on my radar. Despite a fantastic flight with Qatar Airlines to Australia in 2017. Which really impressed me. 

But one of my friends. A girl I was a Travel Agent with back in the mid 90’s, when we were Children (!), moved there last year. And oh my god. She has blown me away showcasing Doha on her Social Media. 

Doha is stunning. But more than that. It’s clean. It’s safe. It has fantastic transport links. Metro and Bus. Making it easy to get around. And its so safe for a Solo Traveller. 

I cannot wait to see as much as I can in the few days I have. West Bay. The Cultural Village. Pearl Island. Corniche. The Inland Sea. Camel Racing. Horse Racing. Whale Watching.

I’m staying at the fabulous 5-Star Hilton Doha in West Bay. 

 

Bali, Indonesia

After 4 days in Qatar, I am heading to Bali for 5 weeks. A week for each Decade! 

This part of the trip I am affectionately calling my “Mid Life Crisis Month”. 🙂

Rather than staying in 5-Star Luxury this time. I have opted for small Balinese Home Stays. Immersing myself into Balinese lifestyle and culture. 

I’m staying inland for 3-weeks amongst the Paddy Fields of Ubud and Sideman. I will be combining working a few hours a day. The time difference is perfect for this. With making time to heal my body and mind. 

I’ve booked a private driver for a few days each week. Travelling around the Centre, East and North of Bali. Visiting Waterfalls and Temples. A Sunrise Dolphin Cruise. And then meeting a local Balinese Healer. 

The last two weeks will be spent Travelling the Islands on actual holiday! The Gili Islands. Lombok. The Nusa Islands. Being healed and soothed by the Sea. 

I’m finishing with 3 days on the Mainland. Relaxing. 

But I am heading back to Doha for a final 2 days before I head home. 

I’ll definitely share more of my Travels when I am there. 

 

Ibiza Baby!

But first. I’ve a cheeky few days in Ibiza with the bestie!! 

A stay at Pikes Hotel. The home of Club Tropicana. We are actually staying in the room where some of the Video was shot!!

Then we have 3 days All Inclusive at the Adults Only Sandos El Greco Resort.
