About
Travel addict who loves the thrill of a new experience, the tastes of a different culture, the adventure of meeting new friends and wandering aimlessly through streets not my own.
Travel style
I enjoy adventures like white water rafting in the Andes, rock climbing in the south of France, riding an elephant bareback in South Africa, harvesting olives for press in Sicily and being driven around a Formula 1 track on race day in Montreal. I love to find unique travel experiences that the average person can't find themselves. But I never underestimate the simple pleasures of a comfortable bed, an ocean view and a great glass of wine. As a genealogist, I can help you walk the streets of your ancestors, a life-changing experience I feel all should have. With over 20 years experience in Access Coordination, and as a published author on the subject, speaking in national and international forums, I can help you travel the world how you need to. I love Europe, but my first love and expertise is Italian and Sicilian travel.

Marissa's reviews
I would like to thank Marissa for suggesting the Villa Cora as the final part of our dream vacation.

Without Marissa's exceptional organization and assistance this trip would not have been possible. From the first moment we contacted her about our desire to go to Italy she was right there for us. She took into consideration our age and health limitations. She had everything organized to suit us perfectly. Every last detail was considered. Which made the challenging nature of what we wanted to do much easier...especially because Bob and I are not experienced travelers and had never been overseas. She even arranged for an all-day tour of a town that my ancestors were from and had thoroughly researched the addresses of relatives with descriptions and pictures of the streets so we could locate all of the important sights there. That was way more than I could ever have dreamed of. Overall I'd have to say that Marissa is a first-class agent and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is planning to travel.

Marissa made this excellent suggestion...since we would only be in Rome one night this was just perfect.
