My Travel Style
I'm all about embracing the thrill of adventure and soaking up the essence of every place I visit. Flexibility is key for me — I love having a loose itinerary that leaves room for spontaneity and unexpected discoveries. It's the best way to truly immerse myself in the local culture and uncover those hidden gems that make each destination unique.
Exploring at my own pace is where the real magic happens. Renting a car gives me the freedom to roam wherever my curiosity takes me. Whether it's cruising down scenic routes or stumbling upon charming villages off the beaten path, I relish the freedom to chart my own course and dive deep into the heart of a region.
For me, travel isn't just about ticking off landmarks — it's about forging connections, creating memories and experiencing the world in all its authentic beauty. And with each journey, I'm reminded that the best adventures are the ones that unfold spontaneously, one hidden gem at a time.

Amanda is an absolute ROCKSTAR! She has transformed the way I think about booking travel because I will 100% be booking ALL my travel through her in the future! Her suggestions, itinerary, and thoughtful touches (wine with a card in our room!) made this an over the top experience for us!

Amanda was absolutely fantastic! I don't know how I could have planned this trip without her. She seamlessly coordinated hotel rooms for 22 people and multiple shuttles to and from the airport in the most cost-effective way! She was helpful, communicative and so friendly! Always on top of the next step before I could even think about it. Amanda is amazing, I would highly recommend using her to book your next vacation. I will be using Amanda for the next trip we book! I can't say enough how wonderful she is.

She was great. Very responsive. Very patient. She gave us a wide variety of resorts to pick from and she broke down prices and broke down resorts that could benefit us. She was great. And we’re going to be booking 2025 with her.

3 Days in San Antonio: A Local's Guide into the Culture, Food & Hot Spots
Before moving away from my hometown of San Antonio, I never found it special. It wasn't until I explored other cities, countries and lived elsewhere that I learned how special my city really is. I describe it as the Mexican New Orleans full of great food, colors, music and culture. I encourage everybody who has never been here to spend a minimum of three days in San Antonio to experience the city. I hope you enjoy a glimpse of what I think are the highlights!
