Nadia Gay

Trip designer & customer sales

Nadia comes from a family of keen rock climbers and hikers so naturally she has become an experienced hiker herself. She has travelled the world, often with just a backpack, a good pair of hiking boots and bucket load of curiosity! Nadia loves the challenge of creating a customer’s perfect trip. Her favourite destination and happy place are the Verdon Gorges, where wilderness & natural beauty reign.

Martha Lees

Trip designer & customer sales

English by origine, French at heart, Martha has lived in France for over 20 years, initially in the Dordogne, then on the northern coast, down to Normandy, Brittany, the French Alps and now Provence, where she has chosen to settle. More of a country bumpkin than a city dweller, Martha appreciates rural landscapes, quaint villages and anywhere where there is water, so her ‘coup de coeur’ is for the Dordogne.

She joined the Intura team as a production assistant and discovered the Portuguese islands of the Azores.
