My Story
I have a bucket list that mostly consists of restaurants I want to try. My simple pleasures include Bravo shows, chicken fingers, the dance floor at a wedding and spicy margs.
My Travel Style
I plan my travel around the restaurants I want to try, and I often have to extend my trips — there aren't enough meals in a weekend! My focus is on building my itineraries around unique experiences, like designing a custom cowboy hat at the base of the mountain in Aspen or learning to make traditional tzatziki on the beach in Santorini. It is important to me to build relationships with the locals. This is how I step outside the traditional tourist spots and curate what feels like a VIP experience — whether it is at a Michelin star restaurant or a roadside bratwurst stand.

I've gushed about Claire in my other reviews, but wow, could not be more grateful that we worked with her for this trip. Passalacqua was her recommendation, and I can't believe I was able to experience such a wonderful place (that I previous had no knowledge of). She made sure everything went perfectly - including recommendations for dinners and bout tours off of the property - and had a bottle of champagne, a note, and fresh pastries waiting for us in our room upon arrival. Claire made this the trip of a lifetime for us, we can't wait to book with her again!

Claire was a fantastic travel advisor. She took into account our interests as she scheduled activities, dinners and hotels. The local partners she works with were wonderful and outdid themselves in making our trip very special.
The trip was one of our favorites because of Claire's attention to detail and follow-through. We will book all of our future travel with Claire.

Booking with Claire was 5 stars! I'd give more if I could. She listened to our initial thoughts on what we'd like to do and gave us carefully crafted options with a plethora of activities, locations, and budgets to choose from. She provided us with a clear itinerary and followed up as our trip approached to ensure every detail was perfect. We also greatly benefited from the perks of booking with her and received upgrades on our rooms, and included breakfast (which was our favorite meal of every day). She helped us build a trip that felt very "us", while bringing the expertise and experience to bring us new and exciting adventures.

Claire is an absolute professional who doesn't overlook a single detail when it comes to booking travel. She made sure we felt like true VIPs at Banyan Tree, helping to ensure we got an upgrade upon arrival, as well as early check-in and late check-out. Between the time that we'd booked and before our trip, she noticed that the prices for our dates had gone down so she did her due diligence with the hotel to help ensure we had the best deal possible. Will absolutely work with her again!

Claire was fantastic in every aspect. We started off with a handful of ideas on where to go and she was able to tell us which places would be great for the activities, budget, and weather we were looking for. The Sumba recommendation was unexpected and ended up being the highlight of our trip and we never would have even heard of the island, much less stayed there without Claire. She is knowledgeable and diligent while also being friendly and understanding of your vacation goals. Will be using her for every trip of ours in the future!

Girls Weekend Guide in Nashville, Tennessee
I grew up stopping in Nashville, Tennessee on road trips with my mom and sister. I always loved the combination of food and music in a town that really delivers on Southern hospitality. Now, it's so fun to go back and see how the city has grown, try new restaurants and experience the nightlife. It's a magical place — even people who don't like country music, for some reason, still feel a little at home in Nashville.
