About
Hiking and nature enthusiast with a love of visiting wine regions around the world.
Travel style
You can usually find me on a hiking trail or doing something in nature. But, by evening, I want to relax and be pampered — find me a pool or jacuzzi, a nice class of wine and a gorgeous view.
After the privilege of enjoying over 20 years as a university professor and administrator, I look forward to transforming from travel hobbyist to travel advisor. With even more tools at my fingertips, I am excited to meet new friends and send them on their dream trips.

She did an excellent job of getting us to the city center. Picked a quality hotel that was reasonably priced. I will use her again.

Carol was so thoughtful and detail oriented in every respect. There were certain things we definitely wanted to do and she made sure that they were all built into our itinerary. Carol has a special skill and deep knowledge for wine and vineyard tourism which was a highlight of our trip.
