My Story

From hostel bunks to boutique beds, I’ve learned that the best trips feed your curiosity, your taste buds, and give you the downtime you deserve. I’m passionate about planning trips that spark joy, create unforgettable moments, and leave you feeling refreshed and inspired to explore more.

Travel Style

Originally from Portland, Oregon and now based in NYC, I’ve traveled to over 30 countries—and in each one, I’ve asked locals what they think I should do with my time. Those personal recommendations from locals have shaped some of my favorite travel memories—and now I love passing them along to the travelers I work with. I also spent two years living in Italy, which deepened my love for slow travel, local food, and meaningful connections. Whether you want a beach read, a hike through the mountains, a bit of history, or a seat at a local brewery, I’ll help you plan a trip that feels like your kind of adventure.

travel to Miami

Working with Emma was one of the best choices for this trip! From the beginning till the end, she was super helpful, attentive to our preferences. She provided the best recommendations for our trip, she took care everything for us - the booking, parking etc - and gave us clear instructions about our airbnb. During our trip, she kept check in on us, asked how our trip was going, whether she could do anything to improve our experience in Miami. Thank you Emma for being the best travel advisor and I recommend everyone to work with her!
