Travel style

My love for travel has taken me to over 30 countries and all 50 states. Whether it’s exploring a bustling European city, hiking a scenic trail or relaxing on a cruise ship deck, I believe every experience counts. My travel philosophy is all about balance: combining structure with spontaneity to make each adventure memorable. I excel at creating both budget-friendly and luxury travel experiences. While I focus on European trips and cruising, I’m always eager to plan journeys to new and exciting destinations.
