My Story
I’ve been traveling my whole life—across continents, cultures, and every kind of trip you can imagine, from family adventures with kids in tow to solo city escapes to milestone trips worth saving for. That lifetime of going places (and learning the hard way what works and what doesn’t) is what I bring to every itinerary I plan. I’m endlessly curious about people and places, and I love the moment a client comes back from a trip and tells me about the tiny restaurant, the quiet morning, the thing they didn’t expect to love most.
Travel Style
I’m a hole-in-the-wall over hot-spot kind of planner. Ask me for the best pasta in Rome and I won’t tell you where the line is. I’ll send you where the nonna is. Whether you’re chasing culture, craving a real break, or trying to make a family trip work for four very different people, I’ll build something that actually fits you. Food you’ll remember, stays that feel like somewhere instead of anywhere, and just enough structure to leave room for the happy accidents that make travel worth it.

I had an excellent experience working with Melissa. She went above and beyond to ensure our trip was perfectly planned and ensured to understood our preferences. We were looking for a cruise with options catered towards an adult crowd. She was highly knowledgeable, responsive, and attentive to every detail from start to finish. Planning felt effortless, and I had complete confidence that everything was handled with care.
From understanding our preferences to providing thoughtful recommendations and timely communication, every step felt personalized and seamless. Her professionalism and expertise truly made a difference. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a smooth, stress free travel planning experience!

Melissa was awesome as our travel agent—she totally nailed it when it came to planning our Chicago trip. She paid attention to what we wanted, found us the perfect hotel close to all the cool spots, and made getting around super easy. Her suggestions for things to do were spot on, and she even gave us detailed directions so we never felt lost. The whole trip was organized in a way that just made sense, and when our plans had to change last minute, Melissa was right there to help us out. Thanks to her, we really got the most out of Chicago, even though our visit was short!
