Profile details
About
Type-A planner whose appetite for travel is only rivaled by her love for her golden retriever, Kimchi. When not scoping out new restaurants, you can find this tech lover brainstorming new startup ideas over espresso martinis. A globetrotting, oenophile ball of positive energy who lives life to the fullest, one leopard print outfit at a time.
Travel style
A budget baller with champagne dreams, I'm a California native who has called Europe home for the past three years, exploring over 28 countries along the way. You will find me seeking out hole-in-the-wall eateries where the locals eat, as well as finding an aesthetically pleasing hotel with a lively lobby bar for impromptu nightcaps in a great location. The food and hotel make the experience for me. Ideal travel day includes a mid-day nap after morning sight-seeing, feeling cozy, eating memorable food and getting great pictures for the 'gram! I take it very seriously that you only get a few meals on a trip, so don't waste 'em on subpar grub!

Alyssa 's reviews
Alyssa took care of everything so I could focus on my event. It was a relief to not be the one planning every little detail. I knew she had my back the entire time so I could focus on enjoying myself and enjoying time with friends and family. Will never book without her again! I felt very well taken care of.

Booking with Alyssa was wonderful! She was super responsive and found us a few options within our price range. The added benefits of the hotel made us go with the nicer option since so much was included. Will definitely book through Alyssa again.
