Travel style

Equal parts meticulous planner and spontaneous explorer, I've traveled to 42 countries and counting in search of the best hidden gems, boutique stays and top-tier eats. From tucked-away cocktail bars to authentic local experiences, I curate trips that balance deep research with the freedom to explore. Whether you're after the perfect points redemption, an itinerary that blends comfort with local charm or don't even know where to start, I've got you covered.
