Alina Baldrich
Alina has been living in Darwin since 2011. She was lucky to begin travelling with her family and to various summer camps at a very young age, experiencing different environments and cultures from close range. Many holidays were spent camping and exploring nature, awakening Alina’s passion for the natural environment. Whilst travelling Australia extensively, Alina fell in love with Northern Australia and decided to stay.
Alina’s studies in business administration & marketing and her post graduate degree in international tourism management allow her, together with Greig, to maintain the shaping and direction of Charter North 4WD Safaris. Her expertise in international marketing also allows her to manage all of Charter North’s in house online and offline marketing. Alina completed her Master Thesis on the topic of “sustainable tourism development in the Kimberley Region”, a topic very close to her heart.
Alina’s role in Charter North is a combination of guiding diverse groups through the Top End, as well as managing bookings, tour preparations, logistics, administration and marketing. Alina or Greig will be your first contact when booking your Charter North tour.
