Our Story
Physician. VP at Pfizer. Recovering workaholic. For 15 years, I’ve planned annual trips with my closest friends to extraordinary corners of the world—and loved it so much I made it official. I’ve lived on three continents, traveled to 50+ countries, and at any given time have six to ten itineraries sitting in my desk drawer. I’m obsessed with the details that make a trip unforgettable—the right room, the right guide, the experience that turns a good trip into a great story.
Let me plan your next one.
Travel Style
I plan trips that are equal parts luxury, adventure, and amazing experiences. Intimate groups, extraordinary destinations, and the kind of itineraries where every single day is unforgettable. Think private conservancies in the Maasai Mara, volcanic coastlines in the Azores, the first light over Torres del Paine—with the right hotel waiting at the end of it. Just travel that makes you wonder why you waited so long.

5 Days in Bulgaria: Roses, Ancient Cities & Rila Monastery
I planned this trip around a single obsession: seeing the Valley of Roses at peak bloom. What I didn’t expect was how much the rest of Bulgaria would deliver—the ancient layers of Plovdiv, the surreal drama of Buzludzha, the sacred quiet of Rila Monastery. This itinerary covers the heart of the country in five days, based entirely on a trip I took in late May 2026, timed deliberately for the week before the Rose Festival when the fields are fullest and the valley still feels like a secret.

Bulgaria Beyond Sofia: A Guide to the Valley of Roses, Plovdiv & Beyond
Bulgaria surprised me in the best possible way. I came specifically for the Valley of Roses at peak bloom, and what I found was a country that layers extraordinary history, unexpected food, and genuinely unhurried travel in a way that feels increasingly rare in Europe. This guide covers the heart of the country—the rose-growing region around Kazanlak, the ancient city of Plovdiv, and the Rila Monastery, one of the great UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Eastern Europe.

Chasing Roses in Bulgaria: A Peak Bloom Journey Through the Valley of Roses
Bulgaria’s Valley of Roses is one of those destinations that sounds almost too romantic to be real, until you’re standing in a field at dawn, surrounded by thousands of blooming Damascena roses, watching local women pick by hand in the early morning light before the heat sets in. I planned this trip specifically to arrive the week before the official Rose Festival, when the fields are at absolute peak bloom and the valley still feels like a secret. What I found was one of the most sensory, unhurried, and genuinely transporting travel experiences I’ve had in years, and I’ve had quite a few.
