WHO ARE WE?

OUR PASSION IS TRAVELING. NOT JUST ORDINARY TRAVELING — HAND-CRAFTED ITINERARIES THAT MAKE OUR JOURNEYS TO IRELAND UNIQUE AND PERSONAL.

ABOUT TRAVELING WITH A PURPOSE…

We all have a thirst and personal desire to express beauty in our own way. Every one of us inhabits a secret gift to express in the world. Some gifts just stay wrapped up longer.

I launched myself into the world of travel like many, embarking on a leap of faith from a long career in the corporate world. Out of personal curiosity I wanted to explore other cultures, teachings and landscapes. In 1994 I embarked on this journey around the globe seeking answers and time away to rediscover myself and a passion for a new career.

It is said that we spend most of our life meeting at crossroads or threshold moments. Travel can force oneself to wake up to these life-changing decisions to a life you have dreamed. My years of training in the corporate world in marketing and the field of people-change enabled me with the skills and patience to work with all sort of challenges group travel will offer.

My experience with groups reveals that travel “can allow one to experience something new inwardly and outwardly.”

I find meaning and purpose by doing the work I love in service to others. This is what travel has been about for me as a solo traveler and with bringing groups along with me for many years.

Friends and strangers are referred to me from all over the United States, and it is an honor and large responsibility that I take with humility and gratitude. What a privilege for an unknown collective of people to place their dreams and wishes into the trust of Margarita and Traveling Matters.

From the surprise visit to the Irish National Stud Farm to the touching presentation at the Skibbereen Heritage Center and finally the tour of EPIC Ireland Exhibit, you created the trip of a lifetime. We appreciate all your effort and hard work. The experience was enriching, educational, spiritual, memorable and of course just great fun!

With Margarita at the helm, I would go anywhere, even some place I didn’t really care about, because I know it would be worth every minute and every penny I spent. Sue
