Dane Sheridan has joined Specialist Holidays Group as Business Development Executive for the North and Midlands. Travel Gossip found out a bit more about him…
I never travel without… my hair dryer and hairspray.
The famous person (dead or alive) I’d most like to sit next to on a plane is…Beyonce.
My weakness is… Pepsi Max, I have a very unhealthy obsession.
The next place I’ll visit is… Sardinia. We’ll be taking a group of agents out to Forte Village on a fam. It’s featured in both Citalia and Sovereign Luxury Travel. I’m hosting the trip at the beginning of June, which I’m really looking forward to.
The last place I visited was… Mexico. My partner and I went back in March to celebrate my 30th birthday.
The worst thing I ate or drank abroad was… probably a mystery meat skewer on a fam trip to Greece back when I worked for Thomas Cook. The whole group ate the same thing and spent the final day violently ill. Let’s just say the flight home was a long one.
My bucket-list destination is… Canada. I would love to experience the Rocky Mountaineer.
Born and brought up in… St Helens.
Live in… St Helens.
The best piece of advice I’ve been given is… as my Mother-in-law always says: “Shy Bairns Get Nowt.”
If I could eat one thing/meal for the rest of my life it would be… pizza. Specifically, Dominos stuffed crust and an extra garlic and herb dip.
The thing I miss most while travelling is… my barber, especially when I’m away longer than a week.
When I left school, I wanted to be… a weather man.
The thing I’m most proud of is… owning my own home with my partner, Calum, and our little family, including our child/dog, Henry.
In my new role, I’ll be… building relationships with agents across the North and Midlands. I’m really looking forward to helping SHG grow their trade business and visibility across the UK.
What attracted me to the job was… meeting new people and the fact no two days are the same.
The first thing I notice about a person when I meet them is… their smile. Then their shoes.
If I won the Lottery tomorrow, I would… book myself and Calum the most ridiculously expensive holiday we could think of, then figure out what to do with the rest of the money while we were sipping cocktails somewhere sunny. Although, knowing my luck, I’d probably just win a fiver.
