Walking into the Rayleigh shop we had very little idea of where we wanted to go on holiday. After a short while talking to David and discussing our preferences of what we would like for our holiday we settled on a destination. David’s patience with very vague guidance from us was excellent. His explanation of what we could expect from our chosen destination was first class. Many thanks to him for what he did to help us chose what we hope will be a great holiday to Cape Verde
