HJ Lim Hui-Juan  Born into a family of travel addicts, HJ has started circumnavigating the world from the age of 4. Armed with her trusty collection of cameras and innate moderate map reading skills, she has breathed the air from more than 80 major cities in 29 countries to date. An engineer by training, there is a logical explanation for everything. Experienced in self-drive holidays, backpacking, rail and sightseeing by foot, she is however still working on space travel. Reminiscing fondly on her last trip to Arizona: "I remember vividly the dramatic scenery made up of interesting rock formations, valleys of dry rock and never-ending roads filled with beautiful desert scenery. Most poignant was the chapel in Sedona, which appeared as if it was rising out of the rocks."
Jav Javiny Lim  Completely sold to the idea of independent travelling as soon as she tasted the sweetness of it. Jav is the key player in seeking out life and civilisations with friendly inhabitants and good accommodation. She has been genetically modified to seek out the best ways to travel to any destination in the world. On a more human note, she very much pines to return to the week she spent in Iceland. "Waking up every day to the scenic landscapes made up of fjords, geysers and rolling hills, going snowmobiling on the glacier, and ending the day off in a thermal bath at the Blue Lagoon. I"m not sure there"s anything better! Hmm, maybe a 3-month long vacation, driving and railing from Scandinavia through to Russia, and ending up in China?"
Rufus Rufus Tan  believes that travel is really all about the new experiences gained and the memories formed. This mentality has resulted in him getting into trouble on more than one occasion. He is now dedicated to helping his fellow travellers avoid the same pitfalls to get a pleasant holiday experience. He believes that there is no place too boring, and will squeeze the fun out of any destination. He describes his favourite trip: "Lying on the massive rock formation at Bald Rock National Park in New South Wales, just staring at the sky, and looking down at the broccoli-like trees below. It was like I had found my resting place."
Wei

Lim Wei  A true sybarite with a fundamental understanding of the the sublimely fabulous. A person for whom luxury travel is not simply an indulgence but a continuous expression of an idiom. An understanding that beneath the graceful swan of Modernist, Art Deco or Neo-Baroque must lie the frantic legs of logistics and ergonomics. His addiction to luxe in the continent is key to his uncompromising standards for all travel that passes by him.


Asked to describe his idea of a holiday, he rattles off the top of his head:
"I would start out from Frankfurt and head north towards Dresden on the Autobahn at speeds in excess of 250km/h. Turning off at the greatest driving track of all time - the Nurburgring, I would race my way through the 30km long track in a rented BMW or Porsche. Coming down from the adrenalin rush, I would head to Im Schriffchen for one of the finest dining experiences in the world. The 2-starred Michelin restaurant boasts amazing amuse bouches, stunning desserts and petit fours. Next, I would continue down south to Vieux Ferrete in France to pick up cheese from the atelier of Bernard Anthony (supplier to most 3-starred Michelin restaurants), and make my way through the town of Molsheim (home of the insane Bugatti Veyron) to the Alsace region for great Gewurztraminer wines.
 
Continuing on to Geneva in Switzerland, I would unwind at the After the Rain spa, and camp out for a few days at the luxurious mountain resort of Leysin. Picking up the pace, I would then head out to Torino, for some of the world’s best nightlife, before continuing on to Modena for a tour of the incredible Pagani Zonda and Lamborghini. In Modena, I would stuff myself silly with fantastic Prosciutto and Prosecco, and end the trip off at Lake Garda, engaging in watersports against the beautiful backdrop of medieval towns.”

Connie Lai  In true Quotient spirit, Connie has been planning and researching her own trips long before joining the company. Not content with the rigidity and inflexibility of tour packages on the market, Connie took on the role of family holiday planner. Till date, she has planned her family trips to New Zealand, the UK, Spain, China, Korea, Italy and Taipei, not to mention countless other shorter trips. Her passion with travel has led many of her friends to approach her for help in planning their own trips.

Previously involved in her own trading business, Connie decided to give it all up to devote her time to her two boys. Now, that they’re grown up, she’s finally able to pursue her passion for travelling full-time with us.

A memorable travel experience to her need not be extravagant, and considers the simple things to be the most fulfilling. She counts having tapas in Spain as one of the travel experiences she would very much like to do again in the near future.
