My Story
Travel guru aspiring to make your travel dreams come true and help you see the world!
Travel Style
I come from a long line of world travelers and grew up traversing around the United States multiple times a year. The travel bug has always been with me. As a result, I aim to explore the world and visit as many countries as possible in my lifetime. This led me to study abroad and live abroad in Europe. I’ve traveled in every style, from backpacking in my college days, to having a destination wedding on the Amalfi Coast as a young adult, to luxury adventure, couple and family travel, and luxury Viking cruises these days. My approach to being a travel advisor includes 30+ years worth of being around those who love to travel, having experiences from every aspect of travel styles, to having a passion for seeing all the must-sees in the world that stems from having a deep curiosity to explore and find those off-the-beaten-path places that few know about. I’m a huge foodie and enjoy including all the best restaurants when crafting a detailed and bespoke itinerary for clients (Fun fact: I started crafting itineraries when I was 17 and still have them!). My adventurous spirit has molded me to prefer unique experiences that few can say they have done, and I enjoy helping clients make their experience dreams come true. I’ve traveled extensively throughout the world to nearly every continent, 40 countries and counting, and some of my absolute favorite trips include Iceland, Vietnam, France, Italy, Spain, and anything in the South Pacific. My expertise in travel planning matches most of my experience in traveling. I have extensive knowledge of French Polynesia, Fiji, South Pacific, Mexico, Western Europe and Iceland, as well as SE Asia. Having had a destination wedding on the Amalfi Coast, I love being able to help make a dream wedding come true for couples and naturally, I enjoy creating a honeymoon. With a naturally curious mind, if I haven’t put the type of trip you’re looking for together yet, I’d love the opportunity to rise to the occasion—don’t hesitate to speak with me about your next dream trip!

Lauren was absolutely amazing in every aspect. Out of many many qualities my partner and I loved about lauren and the experience was her attention to detail and quick communication!! She made sure everything went smoothly and always checked up on us and activities. We truly couldn’t have had a better experience if it wasn’t for her. We are already scheduling more trips with her help and guidance. Not only that but we receive her help with booking flights and doing all the legwork for us individually. She makes everything happen and feel so smoothly so you can truly enjoy the experience and vacation time. I cannot rave enough about her!

Lauren is an outstanding travel advisor. Her effort far exceeded her renumeration. Outstanding value for money. Her personal touches were special: welcome notes in our hotel rooms - personalized on-line itinerary.
