Travel style
I am a woman who likes to have the best of both worlds. I have been lost in Montenegro’s rugged mountains, zipped on the back of motorbikes through the dense streets of Southeast Asia and hiked glaciers in Norway. However, I also cherish unwinding poolside at a Mexican all-inclusive, strolling the medieval streets of Italy and Croatia with a spritz in hand or vintage shopping in the urban sprawl of Paris. Whether adventure or relaxation is what you seek, I am here to make your travel dreams become a reality!

Working with Emily was a wonderful experience! She took the time to hear my vision for the trip and my preferences for activities, lodging, and transport and curated an unforgettable experience that fit that vision! Having lived in Spain for years, her recommendations were spot on, from intimate Flamenco shows to boutique hotels that didn't break the budget to unique tours of landmark sites. She provided an easily accessible document with the details and directions to activities and local recommendations. Her communication was timely and organized; she thought through the details so I all I had to do was pick from the options she provided and enjoy the trip! I already have and will continue to recommend her to friends/family; would love to have the opportunity to work with her again!
