Judy Fawcett

Knitting Tour Specialist

Biography

Judy’s passion for travel started when she was a child.  After reading the book “Heidi” her dream was to visit Switzerland.  That first trip to Switzerland as a young adult was everything Judy imagined and fuelled her desire to not only visit, but learn about the people and cultures of different countries.  Judy’s adventures have taken her hiking in Bhutan, dog sledding & fishing in Norway, and paddling in Botswana.  Along the way, Judy realized that she loved to share her travel experiences with friends and family and now does just that, designing unique itineraries for her clients as well as escorting small special interest group tours. Judy’s knitting groups have travelled from coast to coast as well as north to the Yukon and Churchill, Manitoba.  Internationally she has escorted small groups to Antarctica, Europe and South America as well as major cities in the USA and Canada.   

Besides travel, Judy’s interests include reading, knitting, canoeing, hiking, snowshoeing, music, theatre and cooking.  Her chocolate chip cookies are highly sought after and her curried mac and cheese raises eyebrows and garners rave reviews.

For Judy, being in the travel business means helping clients plan trips that will meet and exceed their expectations and create lifelong memories.
