Testimonials

We were lucky enough to have Sarina speak to our global leadership team meeting recently. We were expecting to hear inspiring stories about her wonderful domestic tourism experiences with Orion and were not disappointed. However what really made Sarina’s talk even more inspiring were her personal challenges and the determination she showed to set up and sustain her business, her passion for all aspects of her business and her pursuit of excellence in all aspect of life, including supporting an individual on his Olympic journey.
