MEET THE TEAM BEHIND THE BRAND
I (hi! I’m Nisha 👋) started this business during maternity leave after being made redundant.
I went from booking my own holidays to earning a full-time income from my phone -and now, I help others do the same.
Since then, we’ve helped hundreds of people:
- Launch successful home-based travel businesses
- Create extra income around their jobs, families or side hustles
- Gain confidence, grow their skill sets, and actually enjoy the process
We’re not some corporate travel agency with a customer support ticket system.
We’re real people, offering real help - WhatsApp chats, Zoom calls, voice notes, in-person events and consistent mentorship.
If you want high-touch support in a low-pressure environment, you’ve found your people. 💛
WHO IS THIS FOR
Whether you’re:
- A travel lover wanting to fund your own adventures
- A busy professional looking for a smart side hustle
- Someone ready for more time, location freedom and income control
…we’ve created an opportunity that works around your life - not the other way around.
We believe in:
- Building businesses that create freedom
- Supporting people at every stage of their journey
- Making travel more accessible, more rewarding - and more fun
And above all?
We believe you deserve to build a life that feels good - not one you’re always trying to escape from.

I am forever grateful that my travel business has allowed me to earn a full time income in pockets of time around my little girl, saving me childcare fees and also enabling me to access the best travel rates - a godsend when you're married to a teacher!”

I set up my business when my little boy was 12 weeks old, and love the flexibility and how it fits in around him. I haven't had to go back to work and I've booked over £180K worth of travel now too! Safe to say joining the business was the best decision I could have made."

I love that this is so flexible so I can do it around all of my commitments! I will never travel in the same way again and being able to earn an additional income around my full time job at a University and two toddlers is the best move I made!”

"I started this business so I could give my kids the memories I didn't have as a child. I wanted to show them the world, Disneyland, and even the oceans! But more importantly, I wanted to be more than just a stay at home mum. I'm so happy to be able to balance time with my kids and travel so effortlessly!”

“I started this business during COVID whilst on maternity leave with a 6 month old. I wanted to show my son and family the world even though the cost of living was increasing, so finding this business opportunity was perfect. I was able to add an additional income to my job as a midwife whilst saving on travel which allows us to travel at least five times a year.
Everyday I’m developing and learning and I’m really proud to be a travel business owner. I can’t wait to see what else is in store!”

"I joined to not only travel like an insider, but also to prove to myself I could learn an entirely new skill. Fast forward two years and it’s safe to say I have done that!
I started the travel business just before I left my job in the insurance industry - I decided to take a career break to spend time with my young family, travel and self develop - all three aspects have been achieved with this business. The flexibility to work around my days is perfect, the places/hotels visited have been magnificent and learning an entirely new skill has been priceless!
Travel will never be the same again for my family and I, now I have this incredible business! I have saved thousands for my family, my friends & clients alike. And now 2024 is here, my goal is to help other like minded people see the insane benefits of this business, to help them earn an additional income for their families too!"

Growing up in Singapore, living in Australia for a decade, the UK for 8 years and now travelling the world with my own coaching and wellness business, Coaching By Susanna, I wanted to blend my passion for travel with creating a passive income side business. Not only do I love travelling, I also love organising trips for people and have always been the go-to girl for organising holidays, my birthdays, and adventures around the world. Inteletravel feels like the perfect blend between my love for travel, organising travel and running a side business, or as I call it a ‘tapas’ career 🙂"
