About

Always finding the best "bang for my buck." Balancing time between North Carolina and California, I'm constantly researching LGBTQIA+, pet-friendly and high-end travel for a reasonable price tag.

Travel style

I've had the opportunity to travel to over 30 countries and have learned a lot. From solo backpacking in hostels through Southeast Asia to luxury accommodations for groups in Vienna, Austria, I've always prioritized experiencing new places and cultures while keeping cost in mind. I now typically travel with my partner and sometimes my dog. You can find me looking for good food, unique experiences and safe destinations for my LGBTQIA+ community.

Andrew's reviews

This was my first time booking with a travel agent and I could not have been more impressed with Andy. He was so knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. I was so overwhelmed planning my first trip abroad and he completely eased my stress. He asked us what type of vacation we were looking for and worked with our budget. Each hotel he recommended he gave us a description which was really helpful for when we had to narrow down our choices. He always responded to our questions very quickly and even got back to me during our trip when we had a question. We loved our vacation so much, all the hotels were wonderful and it wouldn't have been possible without Andy's help. I highly recommend going through him next time you book a trip! He is such an expert and will ensure that you have a great vacation.

Andy was absolutely wonderful to work with and I'll absolutely use him and his expertise in the future. He arranged our hotel and airport transfers, but also recommended restaurants and activities. When researching hotels he called them up to ask questions on our behalf, truly going above and beyond.

Andy did an amazing job finding a resort within our budget, but also a resort that 5 stars with an amazing view. He was able to get us upgrades and handle all of the planning for our trip. If you're thinking about hiring Andy as your travel agent, do it!

Andy is absolutely fantastic. He is knowledgeable, responsive, friendly and diligent. He made booking our trip a breeze and took out all the annoying and tedious task oriented leg work. I really appreciated his ability to offer suggestions without it feeling pushy. I think he is able to do this because he truly cares about his clients experience and happiness. I have referred a lot of friends Andy's way who have all shared the same overwhelming positive experiences. We cannot wait to book our next trip with Andy!
