My Story
I’m an Italophile at heart, but my passion spans food, wine, history, and culture from all around the world. My first foray into travel was as a child, spending hours flipping through guidebooks at the bookstore, dreaming of distant places. That early curiosity blossomed into life-changing journeys while studying abroad in Italy, the UK, and Spain in my early twenties. Since then, I’ve wandered the world with my kids, my husband, and close friends—seeking not only unforgettable adventures but also quiet moments that take your breath away. I’m endlessly inspired by the magic of travel and the joy of sharing those moments with others.
Travel Style
I love immersing myself fully in a place—meandering through hidden streets, discovering local flavors and vibrant bars, and ending the day with a handcrafted cocktail at a stunning hotel bar where every detail feels effortless. It’s these carefully crafted, unique experiences that I’m passionate about weaving into every trip I plan.
Whether savoring a slow lunch in a village trattoria, hiking rugged cliffs, or finding peaceful stillness beneath ancient trees at a shrine in Japan, I’ve learned that travel’s true magic is both movement and pause. I want you to not just see the world—but to savor its essence. Be it adventure, relaxation, culture, or a little of everything, I help strike the perfect balance for a journey that’s as memorable as it is meaningful.

Sandi is the first travel agent I've ever worked with. She was amazing help with every logistical question and she made sure to check in with me. We had a super relaxing family vacation and I barely had to do anything. It was awesome, I am so grateful.

Working with Sandi was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end. She handled our booking with incredible attention to detail and made the entire process feel effortless. We were celebrating my husband's birthday, and she went out of her way to ensure everything was perfect — from thoughtful recommendations to personal touches that made our trip truly memorable.
Her professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care set her apart. We felt supported every step of the way, and it’s clear she takes great pride in creating exceptional travel experiences. We couldn’t be more grateful for her help and would enthusiastically recommend Sandi to anyone looking for a top‑tier travel adviser.

Sandra is an exceptional travel advisor who combines thoughtful planning with responsive support when it matters most. She helped us plan a perfect weekend in upstate New York, including a stay at the Statler Hotel at Cornell University to visit our granddaughter. Her recommendation of a local inn as our first stop was spot-on—she even suggested the specific building and room that would be perfect for us, and she was absolutely right. Sandra provided excellent restaurant recommendations and curated a list of activities that made our Finger Lakes experience truly memorable. Her attention to detail extended beyond planning: her price tracking saved us 10% on our second hotel booking, and when our flight was delayed, she immediately coordinated our hotel pickup without us even asking. The welcome gift was a lovely touch that showed she truly cares about her clients. Sandra is always available—not just to plan a great trip, but to quickly pivot when unexpected changes arise. She's the kind of advisor who anticipates your needs and delivers beyond expectations.

Sandra was amazing when we texted her from the airport when our flight was cancelled. She immediately sent us a "bookable quote" and we quickly had a hotel reservation!
