About

I plan like it is my own trip, because it kind of is. If you are happy, I did my job right.

Travel style

I love the process of planning almost as much as the travel itself. I take the time to listen, to dig and to connect with the right people so every trip feels personal and effortless. I believe great travel is about finding the moments and places that fit you perfectly, not just filling an itinerary. I bring energy, care and experience to every trip I plan because I genuinely want you to love where you go and how you get there.
