Vancouver Base. Global POV. Before becoming a Travel Consultant, Patrick (Paddy) Moore was a multi-media journalist and free-lance writer. For 15 years he traveled throughout Canada “from sea to sea to sea” writing, directing and producing stories for CBC News and Current Affairs. He founded Moore Media in 1990 and began producing stories for the next 10 years from around the world - from the sark beauty of the Atacama desert to the lush jungles of Zambia. Today, as a Vacation Consultant with Expedia Cruises in West Vancouver, Patrick channels that same curiosity into crafting transformative travel experiences. His philosophy is simple: travel should do more than move you—it should change you. "I enjoy curating experiences that don’t just take you to incredible destinations but change you in ways you never imagined. Whether it’s standing atop Machu Picchu, exploring the mystical lands of Haida Gwaii, immersing yourself in the vibrant culture of Oaxaca, camping under the desert stars with the Bedouin near Petra, walking the Camino de Santiago, venturing into the Amazon, or witnessing the breathtaking wildlife of the Masai Mara—I can help you experience the world in a way that leaves a lasting impact. What sets me apart is my deep, firsthand experience. I’ve been to these extraordinary places and many more. I understand both the profound rewards of travel and the challenges of getting there safely and economically. When you travel with me, you’re not just booking a trip—you’re gaining a dedicated consultant, guide, and support system. From planning to departure, throughout your journey, and even after you return, I will be with you." Patrick is also the author of two spirited books: Quarantinis Eh? Cocktails from the Pandemic (2021), a collection of stories and cocktails born of a paused world, and Traveltinis: Around the World in 40 Cocktails (2024), a playful exploration of destinations through the drinks that define them. Because in Patrick’s world, every great journey—like every good cocktail—should be well-crafted, memorable, and worth savouring.
