My Story
Surfing is my happy place. Hot springs enthusiast. Lover of music, dancing, arts and culture.
My Travel Style
I love a good mix of activity and wellness/relaxation when traveling. 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 was amazing to work with for my honeymoon. She gave me numerous options and promptly answered questions I had over my trip across several months leading up to my trip. She booked the lodging, most excursions, transportation, and flights. Very easy to work with and good pricing. Will definitely reach out for future trip needs.

Finding Claire was one of the best and easiest decisions I made in regards to my wedding and honeymoon. This isn't relevant to everyone, but as two vegans, finding a travel agent who is also a vegan and really understands how challenging that may be while traveling really makes a world of difference. We had full confidence in Claire's ability to find us a resort that could expertly accommodate our dietary restrictions and she really delivered. There was a lot up in the air with ongoing hotel construction updates about 4-6 weeks before we planned to travel and Claire was happy to take care of all of the communication with the resort about it, updating me along the way. She really made our first experience using a travel agent worthwhile, and we'll definitely be looking forward to using her services again for future travel.

Claire was a great communicator, and gave us tons of options and completed a lot of research for us. We loved having the daily itinerary app to follow! We used her for our honeymoon and we had a nice treat and note from her waiting in our room when we arrived. Would recommend working with her if you're booking a trip somewhere you've never been before!

The Springs Resort & Spa at Arenal, Costa Rica
I visited The Springs for a three-night stay this August (2024), celebrating my husband’s birthday. The resort is absolutely unparalleled in terms of service and attention to detail as well as property amenities, variety of hot springs and premiere volcano-view location. It was one of the most special resort stays I have ever experienced and I hope to visit again many times in the future.

Green Season: One Week in Costa Rica
Costa Rica is well-known as the most popular destination in Central America. The secret that many travelers don't know is that 'Green Season', which runs approximately from May - November, can be the best time to visit. It is my personal favorite time of year. Better rates, less crowds, and cooler temperatures make for an exceptional experience.
