My travel playground is built around trips that celebrate local culture, creativity and a strong visual sense of place — from courtyard mezcal tastings in Oaxaca to spotting wild horses on the windswept coast of northern Japan. I design journeys that lean into the unexpected: off-the-beaten-path, a little adventurous and always grounded in local flavor, thoughtful design and soulful experiences. Whether it’s a slow morning sipping coffee, a long hike to a glacier or standing in the shadow of ancient pyramids, I create travel that feels alive, connected and uniquely unforgettable.
