About
Surfing is my happy place. Vegan foodie and hot-springs aficionado. Lover of music, dancing, arts and culture.
Travel style
I like to mix it up when traveling. Whether it's camping / road-tripping, renting a house or the occasional treat of a luxurious hotel stay... I'm ready for it all! I enjoy a quiet place to retreat to after a long day of adventure and exploration, and am just as happy spending time in nature as I am exploring art and food in a big city.

Claire Lipton is a wonderful travel agent! She took all our dreams and requests for our mother/daughter trip to Paris and made them a reality. She even worked to get us airline vouchers when the plane was delayed. She made everything so easy - she planned out details of things I would never think about including driving services too and from the airport and early checkin and breakfast. We had a wonderful trip thanks to her detailed planning and communication!

Claire always responded promptly to inquiries, and didn’t even mind when we made a huge change at the last minute. Got us great deals on accommodations and our rental car. Highly recommended.
