My Story

Type-A DC-based travel curator, crafting memorable trips immersed in local culture and comprised of gourmet delights, luxe getaways and romantic adventures.

My Travel Style

As a former expat with a decade of living abroad, I've cultivated a deep connection with the vibrant cultures of South America, Asia and Europe. I expertly navigate any destination in which I find myself, uncovering culinary treasures from bustling street vendors to exquisite ten-course feasts — and curating stays in stunning hotels that embody local charm. I believe every journey is a unique adventure, and I’m here to design meticulously crafted itineraries that let you simply relax and savor the experience.

Carolyn was incredibly responsive, detail oriented, helpful, transparent, and most importantly she put up with my inane and repetitive questions with the utmost patience. Despite the numerous changes I made to my itinerary, Carolyn was there to make quick trip recommendations and itinerary changes on the fly making this trip seamless for me. Not only did she organize my 10-day trip to Antarctica, but she helped me build an itinerary for an additional 10 days in Argentina. I cannot thank Carolyn enough for all the time and dedication she put in to make sure my trip was a memorable one.

Since returning, I've had numerous people ask me about how to book a trip to Antarctica and I will be sure to recommend Carolyn should they need an effortless experience through a qualified travel agent. Highly recommend!

Our booking experience with Carolyn was fabulous! Carolyn was receptive, attentive and timely. Once we made our decision. The process of uploading our payment information and details was very smooth. Carolyn was able to give us some insights about the area and things that we might need to think about while traveling to Budapest.

Carolyn was so kind and helpful through the entire booking and planning process. She was quick to respond to any questions we had. I appreciated what seemed to be insider information when it came to details on board and excursions that were offered. I highly recommend Carolyn for any or all vacation needs big or small. Thank you for all your help.

I will never be able to say enough praise for Carolyn!! She made it simply effortless in finding wonderful accommodations and booking the rental car. She was open for any questions I had and my only regret on the trip was that I didn't stay longer to enjoy more of the town and the splendid trip that she had planned with me. I will keep looking for more opportunities to book with Carolyn in the future and hope to recommend her to many of my friends too. She is simply the best, cares for the travelers needs and calms the mind of any doubt that the trip will be an enormous success!
