Born in Canada and raised in Sardinia, travelling has always played a big part in Monique’s life. After studying Hospitality, Events and Tourism, she worked as a Yacht Assistant and Event Manager for eight years. She was then lucky to live in some of the most exclusive locations in the world, working as a land-based assistant for a number of superyachts. Monique also has extensive experience in managing regattas, weddings and private events. Now London based and still a passionate traveller, Monique is thrilled to be part of the Pelorus team.

Number one unforgettable travel experience?

This is a tough one! The underwater world of the Maldives surprised me with its spectacular beauty every day for 6 months. Yet, island hopping in the Caribbean gave me a whole different view on how diverse each island is and how each one can offer its own distinct experience.

Top of your travel bucket list?

Since I’ve joined Pelorus my bucket list has changed several times, but definitely French Polinesia and Asia – every single inch of it! 

Who is your ultimate travel partner?

It took me forever to find the perfect travel partner but I did: Gabriele, my new husband. We finally got married with family and friends in Italy this summer.
