Meet Hayley O’Rourke
As the Managing Director of Journeys by Design and Co-founder of Soul Wander Retreats, Hayley is your dedicated retreat coordinator. Bringing over two decades of invaluable experience in the travel industry, her journey began 24 years ago, driven by an unwavering passion for cultivating enduring and meaningful relationships with her clients. With a steadfast commitment to excellence, Hayley ensures that every travel experience she orchestrates is infused with unforgettable moments and cherished memories—the very essence of what travel is all about.
Hayley's passion for wellness travel was sparked unexpectedly during a spontaneous visit to COMO Shambhala in Bali—an experience that illuminated the profound transformative power of retreats. In 2018, fate intervened once more when she crossed paths with Tina, leading to the creation of our inaugural wellness retreat.
This retreat holds a special place in Hayley's heart, drawing from her profound connection with Africa. Having journeyed through South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Egypt, and Kenya on multiple occasions, each adventure deepened her love affair with this mesmerising continent. Africa's unparalleled beauty and soul-stirring landscapes continue to captivate her, infusing her work with an authentic sense of passion and purpose.
