About

I am a Minnesota native who does not like winter! I love spending sunny days visiting friends and family in California, and exploring special get-aways in Mexico, the Caribbean, Florida and Arizona.

Home airports

Minneapolis – Saint Paul International Airport (MSP).

My travel style

A born researcher, I like to make the most of every vacation and new place I visit. My perfect vacation combines beaches and views with some local culture, including excursions and wonderful meals.
