- I come from a family who have quite traditional careers... >

I come from a family who have quite traditional careers; they’re all artists or writers. Or architects. So when I told them I was giving up my career in architecture and pursuing an internet based business, it went down like a bomb.

My mum and dad were always very supportive, but my wider family who had helped me through a very expensive education, were less than impressed.

I told them about creating a unique travel website and the general response I got was ‘It sounds like a good idea but what about architecture, wasn’t that better?’ Well, no, it wasn’t really.

What’s kept us going is that myself and my business partner Chris know we have a good idea. We have confidence in the fact that it will succeed because it’s something that people want.
