My Story
I call myself a "tipsy gypsy." I love dishing out travel tips & living like a nomad. I visited 30 countries by age 30 (mostly solo) and my passion further ignites with each new place I go!
My Travel Style
I'm a “splurge and save” type of traveler. Whether it's staying in hostels or high-end hotels, or exploring via hop-on-hop-off bus tours or a gourmet 5-course meal on glass-roofed bus tours, I know how to strike a balance with my knack for stretching budgets while maximizing experiences. My career has been in running golf and tennis events and my hobby (travel) has led me to 4 continents (solo) and 42 US states. This combination makes me a “go-to” for splurge and savers, solo travelers, buddies golf trips and incorporating Grand Slams (tennis) into your travel plans.

Izzy was extremely helpful. This was for a mom and daughter trip, and my daughter was looking for something with a cabin vibe, hiking, etc & Izzy found the perfect destination for us. She was always quick to respond and gave great recommendations. I look forward to having Izzy plan another destination for us in the future!

Izzy was amazing. We were all over the place with what we wanted to do and Izzy never once got frustrated or made us feel like a pain with all the changing and swapping we were doing. She was also kind, considerate, and was happy to go back to the drawing board when we needed to.

Izzy was very helpful! She was understanding about our goals for our vacation, and what our expectations were. Due to her experience, she was able to explaining how everything would work. She was able to book us a great room, taking different factors into consideration. She was helpful from the time we booked until the time we returned from our cruise with any and all questions.

Izzy was amazing and so helpful laying out all of the options for hotels in each city that could accommodate a larger family! She went above and beyond figuring out a game plan for each city we were in and then laying out a general itinerary/booking tickets with helpful travel tips to navigate especially knowing we were traveling with younger kids. We could not have planned this trip without her!!!

Izzy went above and beyond to make this trip extraordinary! She found us the best hotel within our budget and got us amazing upgrades, including a large credit toward breakfast and even a credit for the spa! We even received a personalized letter and the best chocolate-covered strawberries on the first night. Izzy was always quick to respond during the planning phase and her communication was impeccable. She provided us with a list of recommendations for dining and excursions while in NOLA and every last one lived up to the hype. I will never again plan a trip without Izzy's help. I HIGHLY recommend booking your next trip through Izzy!

Eat and Wine (No Whining) Your Way Through St. Helena, CA
I went to St. Helena on my sisters-in-law's bachelorette trip and fell in love! Some of the best wine and food I have ever had! St. Helena felt a little “small town” and “off the beaten” path in all the best ways possible.
