Founder

North Shore resident Jenny Karmali has long been passionate about philanthropy and travel. “I’ve been brought up to always give back to the community,” she says over the phone. So in 2008, the travel consultant, who for over 30 years has been arranging trips for her personal and corporate clients, decided to combine the two passions by founding the volunteer-run travel organization, Journeys with Heart. Fast-forward to 2018 and the organization has raised $130,000 for local charities.

Just returned home on Saturday evening. Extended the trip as you know with a couple of days in San Sebastian and then a day in Bilbao. The trip was fabulous. I enjoyed it immensely. A few hiccups, but my goodness, when you consider the ambitiousness and scope of the trip, a few are to be expected. You did a great job putting the trip together. Aside from a few issues with respect to the shellfish, everything went along smashingly well. One thing I may comment on is the pace of the trip. We did so much and saw so much and our tour director, Javier tried his best to ensure we saw as much as we did and were as well cared for as we were.

He was a terrific guy - and I think was criticized by a few in the group unfairly. He worked tirelessly for all of us

Thank you again for organizing such a wonderful trip.
