Travel style
Embracing a laid-back travel vibe, I revel in the perfect mix of adventure and rejuvenation in serene settings. I love combining small boutique hotels with luxury resorts during trips to experience the best of both worlds. As a food lover, I enjoy exploring cultures through their flavors. Therefore, delicious local food takes center stage in my travel planning, spanning from hidden gems and award-winning chefs to the hottest new restaurants on the scene.

Leslie was amazing! I can’t sing her praises enough. Iceland is a huge place with so many different activities to choose from and places to stay. She found us fabulous hotels, and really streamlined our schedule, which was perfectly timed with wonderful, once in a lifetime excursions scheduled! We so appreciate Leslie, her professionalism, and attention to detail! Will absolutely book with Leslie again!

Leslie made our trip seamless and unforgettable. Our room was incredible, she made our dinner reservations, signed kids up for tennis, my spa appointments and even the Brightline reservations for us to get there. The property is stunning and service is exceptional. Will be back!!
