An Interview With Heather Taskey

How many years have you been selling travel?
I have been in the travel industry for 25+ years. I am originally from Nanaimo with a 10 year stint in the Vancouver area. I have worked hard at building the trust of many clients that are still with me today. I want to thank everyone for their business as I do APPRECIATE it. So please contact me and lets get started on your next dream vacation.

What are your hobbies?
Walking is my favorite hobby....Walking on the beaches in any destination. The longer the beach, the better it is. I enjoy exploring the cities and the culture of my destinations.

What type of resort activities do you favor? ie water sports, lounging by the pool, etc?
I enjoy the water aerobic classes or water volleyball in the pool, or down at the beach I love Kayaking on a smooth body of water with friends. Then by night I love to visit the nightclub and get my fill of music and dancing.

What are your favorite destinations?
That is such a hard question to answer. How do I pick a favorite when each trip is measured by the memories I made there. I have been blessed to travel with some pretty amazing people and my travel experience are made mostly because of this. I have many memories that I treasure. I have cruised the Caribbean a lot and love each Country, however my favorite beaches so far have been in Aruba and Punta Cana DR. Cruising through the Panama was amazing and probably one of my most memorable trips. My cruise from Rome around the Med was amazing and I must say Greece was just like every blue and white picutre you see of it.

What languages do you speak?
English

Travel History

Avalon Waterways 7 Night River Cruise - Romantic Rhine - 2017

Avalon's claim to fame is that their staterooms have a unique feature. Their beds actually face your wall-to-wall floor to ceiling panoramic windows. A view with a room and a feature I love. To lay in comfort on my bed and still see the world go by. . Our cruise Countries were Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, Germany, France, Netherlands . You can go in either direction. Ours was Basel to Amsterdam. Avalon includes excursions in most of the ports with extra excursions available to purchase. With this being my first river cruise having ports up close to each city the easy access to explore was amazing. I have also cruised many times on ocean cruises and now I can compare both and give you direction to what you are after.
