Liz gave us multiple options for us to ponder for our 5 day stay in Melbourne.
We wanted something that was within walking distance of the Australian Open tennis tourney and within walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants.
W Melbourne was a good selection for our needs.
Liz was very professional and understood our wish list.....she did an excellent job.

Liz did a phenomenal job. This was a tricky vacation given we were going to three totally different locales, and each one had its own challenges. Bora Bora, New Zealand and Australia.
Liz did a marvelous job listening to our needs and desires and then matching it with terrific hotels, day trips and other events. It was a great match of being busy and being quiet at the right time of the journey.
Amie and I are looking forward to continuing our world travels and that will include Liz and her expertise. She lead us in the right direction on every front....outstanding job!

Queenstown, New Zealand: A Guide to Adrenaline Adventures, Local Flavors & Iconic Scenery
I spent time in Queenstown and the South Island in fall 2025, and it quickly became one of my favorite destinations for its mix of adventure, scenery, and great food. The landscapes are big and dramatic, but planning a trip here isn’t always straightforward—weather, drive times, and the logistics behind many experiences can make things tricky to navigate on your own. That’s why working with trusted on-the-ground partners is key to making the entire experience seamless, safe, and unforgettable.

3 Days in Kyoto: Bamboo Forests, Temples & Soba
Kyoto is a city of contrasts: centuries-old temples and quiet gardens sit alongside neon-lit arcades and 100-yen shops. Michelin-star dining just a few blocks from ramen counters. It’s every bit as magical as the photos, but also surprisingly approachable once you wander beyond the main sights. This three-day itinerary blends a balance of elevated and everyday experiences. For some, that’s a Michelin-star dinner; for others, it’s a 7-11 egg salad sandwich by the river. There’s no right answer. It’s travel. Your way.

Wine Country Without the Crowds: Your Guide to Los Alamos & Los Olivos, California
Los Olivos and Los Alamos are two of my favorite spots in California’s Santa Ynez Valley—walkable, relaxed, and full of local character. In Los Olivos, it’s all about small-town wine tastings, historic buildings, and easy charm—many of the tasting rooms are run by the same folks who farm the nearby vineyards. Los Alamos brings a little more edge, with vintage shops, standout food, and a quirky Western feel. Just two and a half hours from LA and 30 minutes from Santa Barbara, it’s an easy getaway where you can pack a lot of great meals, wine, and local shopping into a laid-back 36 hours.

How to Spend a 100-Degree Weekend in Palm Springs
Palm Springs has long been a favorite escape of mine—a place where desert serenity meets retro glam. I love this city: old-Hollywood charm, Spanish colonial architecture, and a relaxed, sun-soaked vibe that feels both luxurious and low-key. While most people flock here in winter and spring, the summer has its own magic—think fewer crowds, better rates, and pool days that stretch long into the evening. Is it hot? Yes. Is it worth a visit? Yes, again.
