The Small Guide Team
Ian Heydon
Ian first visited Vanuatu in 1999 for a holiday. That two-week break turned into three fantastic years. On returning to Australia in 2003 he applied for a travel agent's licence to specialise in romantic breaks to Vanuatu. He, and business partner Jenny, formed Small Guide Travel with the philosophy of offering local knowledge, personal service and competitive prices. While Ian and his family live in Queensland these days, he visits Vanuatu regularly and always finds something new and wonderful.
Jenny Cowles
Jenny has worked in the travel industry since 1994 with international, domestic and regional airlines within Australia and more recently Internet travel companies. Jen has travelled to the UK, the States, Asia, most of the South Pacific Islands. Jen's love of the Tropics mostly came about through frequent visits to Vanuatu for work and pleasure. She loves the relaxed lifestyle, friendly people, and beautiful landscapes, and, since June 2008, she and husband Roland have made Vanuatu their home. Jenny is 'on the ground' to assist.
Laura Gant
Laura joined Small Guide Travel in early 2004. With a comprehensive background in organising travel, she took to her new role like a canoe to a tropical lagoon. Laura has travelled extensively throughout Europe, North America, Asia and Australia and has visited Vanuatu, Fiji, Tonga and the Cook Islands for both work and holidays. She intends continue exploring the Pacific with her partner, Scoot, to find new favourite romantic places. They have yet to find one that beats Vanuatu but it's worth the search!
Naomi Gray
Naomi joined Small Guide Travel in June 2008. After completing a Bachelor of Business majoring in Tourism and Marketing she travelled for 3 months to various places including North America, Hawaii, Canada, Ireland, London, Paris, Rome, Barcelona, Turkey and Egypt, and then another 3 months travelling through Australia and New Zealand. Naomi previously travelled to Vanuatu and loved her time there and plans on visiting many more times.
Emma Davies
Emma started working with Small Guide Travel at the beginning of 2007. Before joining the Small Guide team Emma travelled to Vanuatu many times, including the outer islands, where she has stayed with the local villagers as a part of their family (Moso, Paama). Emma loves socialising with friends and pretty much spends all her wages on shopping for new clothes.
