About
Marketing executive turned digital nomad. Brazilian-born, Miami-based. Often slow-traveling my way around a new destination with my dog, Finnegan.
Travel style
I love stepping out of my comfort zone and letting the world surprise me. I celebrate the art of slow, immersive travel that evokes a sense of adventure, discovery, and personal growth. I'm all about traveling in style and tend to veer off the beaten path looking for more authentic local experiences, adventure, and food! I specialize in crafting boutique experiences, Virgin Voyages cruises, and empowering solo journeys.

Denise 's reviews
Denise was phenomenal! Very thorough and she listened to not only what I said I wanted but what I didn’t say. She made this 10th year anniversary trip a trip of a lifetime! She holds a wealth of information about Europe and eased my fears since this was the first time I have traveled in this area. She told me the good and bad which was great. I have used other travel agents before who were completely unorganized and didn’t think about the service they provided so my guard was up at first but she peeled away at my shell and I am a forever client of hers. I just love Denise!!
