About
Travel and exploring the world is such a gift, and I'm so excited to help make the process fun, easy and inspiring each step of the way. Let's experience as much of the world as possible!
Travel style
Learning how to travel when times were lean made all the difference when planning travel when times are plentiful. Wonderful experiences can and should be had, no matter where you're at in life. Travel can be deeply spiritual or a totally frivolous jaunt — it's for you and the people along for the ride. I love planning trips and knowing the people taking them have enjoyed what was laid out in front of them but also that they had the freedom to explore and go with the flow, too. I look forward to helping people get what they want and more!

We had a wonderful experience working with Nicole on booking and coordinating our trip to Italy. She took the time to meet with us and understand our travel preferences and interests, and quickly turned that into recommendations for hotels, activities, and excursions that perfectly reflected what we had in mind. Nicole is a timely and clear communicator, and once everything was booked she checked in with us to make sure everything was as we envisioned. The digital itinerary tool she provided was well organized, updated, and easy to follow. She also provided useful tips and information that were very helpful in navigating a country we’d never been to before. For the past couple years my partner and I had been talking about visiting Italy but could never find the time to plan trip—Nicole was able to help us make it happen. We’re excited to work with her again in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Nicole from Fora to plan my birthday trip to Punta Cana, and I cannot sing her praises enough! From start to finish, Nicole made the entire process effortless and enjoyable. Communication with Nicole was an absolute breeze. She was incredibly responsive, always getting back to me promptly with answers to any questions or concerns I had. Whether it was via email, text message, or even in person, Nicole was always there to lend a helping hand or offer valuable advice. One thing that truly stood out to me was how thorough Nicole was in her planning. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in my birthday trip, and then went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of. From booking the perfect accommodations to arranging exciting excursions, Nicole left no stone unturned. And let me tell you, everything was exactly as Nicole had described it – and even better! The accommodations were luxurious, the activities were thrilling, and the entire trip went off without a hitch. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect birthday getaway, all thanks to Nicole's impeccable planning. Without a doubt, I would not hesitate to use Nicole's services again in the future. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and unwavering dedication to her clients make her an absolute joy to work with. If you're looking for a seamless and unforgettable travel experience, look no further than Nicole from Fora. She truly is a gem in the world of travel planning.

It was a no brainer to trust Nicole in booking my vacation, since she is a previous colleague of mine. She not only understands what I was looking for, but also was able to navigate me in the right way. With 7 countries in the list and the time period, she was able to not only provide the best offers and rate, but the overall experience as well.
