Profile details
About
City living with a little country on the side. Always a foodie with yoga and surf trips on my mind.
Travel style
Roaming the planet with a thirst for adventure and an open heart.
I'm the type of person who always goes the extra mile when planning to ensure the best trip ever. When I travel, I'm all about embracing local culture, especially when it comes to food and supporting eco-friendly initiatives that benefit both people and the planet. I live for the thrill of discovering that perfect balance between luxury and authenticity. My travel journey spans over twenty years, from my early days as a backpacker, to a hopeless romantic, a mom on a mission for fun (with a side of education), and yoga retreats. Every trip has been a unique and soulful adventure, and I treasure them all like precious friends.

Nicole's reviews
We struggled to find accommodations in Newport, within biking distance of Fort Adams State Park. Nicole found us this hidden gem and handled all the details for us. We had an excellent vacation and look forward to working with her again on our upcoming trip to Ireland!

Nicole's help in planning my trip was invaluable. She did an excellent job of listening to my needs regarding accommodation, and was able to find me a hotel that met all of them! She also took time to understand what my interests were and found several activities that were really one-of-a-kind that I wouldn't have found on my own e.g. a cooking class run my a woman that was centered on Zapotec tradition and culture. Nicole worked hard to provide options each day for activities as well as restaurant recommendations and I appreciated her knowledge of great food as I really love to eat when I travel :) I highly recommend Nicole's help as it took what would have been a good trip and made it exceptional!
