Gem Hansen

I am Gill's daughter. I was born at St.Mary's Hospital, and grew up on Bryher. I went to Tresco Primary School and then St.Mary's Secondary, Truro College and Reading University. I have been working for Inclusive Holidays for about 18 months and previously worked at Hell Bay on Bryher and the Island Hotel on Tresco.

I live with my husband on Bryher and have been married for 5 years; we had our first child, Joseph, in November 2010. I am taking maternity leave but remain involved in the business from home, and with some part time hours in the office.

I enjoy working in the travel industry as I love travelling and have been to Europe, Las Vegas, New Zealand, Tobago, Australia, Mexico, Florida and the Bahamas. I enjoy yoga, summer barbecues on Samson and cricket on the beach. I ran the Tresco Marathon in 2008- lots of hills but definitely some of the most beautiful scenery of any course in the world.

My favourite things about Scilly are finding you have the beach all to yourself, and watching the sunset from Popplestones Bay.
