Dany Girgis was born in Sydney, Australia.

As a child, Dany displayed an unusually strong drive towards achievement, creating exceptional results in academic and sporting fields. His involvement in sports 5 to 6 days a week helped develop the competitive edge which saw him become Australian Junior Champion in Tae Kwon Do and proceed to attain a 2nd Degree Black Belt.

The discipline gained from martial arts also contributed to Dany being awarded several academic awards in the field of Mathematics, Computers, Commerce, English, Music, Physics and Business Studies.

Travelling became part of Dany’s life from a young age and soon emerged into a passion.

Having an ongoing desire to travel meant that Dany grew to gain perspective and an understanding of what the market demanded.

Dany Girgis was awarded University Scholarship in the USA. This created an opportunity for Dany to study and travel simultaneously, increasing his desire to contribute to the travel industry.

After receiving a full set of High Distinction grades in USA, Dany returned to Sydney and was given the opportunity to work in a prominent position in sales. Dany moved up the rankings quickly and become assistant team manager within 3 months, then manager, then sales coach for a major Australian bank with a record-breaking performance.

The company awarded its top 50 staff with a trip to Fiji – As the person who received the Number 1 ranking, Dany Girgis was asked to give a speech in front of a large audience – the topic they requested for Dany’s speech was “What it takes to be the Best of the Best”.

Dany then chose to complete another year of tertiary education in the field of marketing – once again, he topped the course. This inspired Dany to start his own business with a vision to employ staff with a similar attitude to their work – and a goal to create amazing holiday experiences for the customers.

One of Dany Girgis’ favourite holiday destinations is Vanuatu – he works closely with all the hotels and resort in the nation and is considered to be an expert in the field.

Dany’s hobbies now include boxing, DJ’ing, flying and helping the community as a Volunteer Fire Fighter as the front line of defence in fighting rural bush fires to help save lives each year.

In 2007, Dany Girgis was invited to sit an exam for International Mensa (The world’s most exclusive Genius community) which involved sitting an extensive exam to test whether Dany had “genius” status. Dany passed the exam and became part of Mensa. The knowledge shared within the community provided an additional contribution to the success of Sure Thing Travel as a company.

The company has now grown and runs travel events for Australians in 8 nations. Dany has continued to select exceptional staff with a positive attitude who display the 3 fundamental pillars: Honesty, Quality, Efficiency.

As the Director of Sure Thing Travel (a leading Youth Travel Company in Australia), Dany Girgis has managed to balance this with regular community volunteer work whilst somehow having the time to maintain an incredible level of vitality and health.
