My Story
Researching and planning travel is my happy place. What's life about if you don't have your next trip to look forward to? I love crafting journeys filled with unique adventures and culinary delights.
Travel Style
My travel style encompasses a wide range of destinations, from idyllic beaches in Kauai to secluded Italian villas and bustling Manhattan hotels. I love the chance to establish a home base, immerse myself in local culture, and take day trips to nearby areas. Behind-the-scenes museum tours, private boat excursions, and cooking classes pique my interest, but I also find solace in reading on the beach. A well-structured itinerary that balances planned activities with leisure time, delicious cuisine, and fantastic wine (with captivating views of course) are essential elements of my ideal travel experience, whether I'm exploring with family, a loved one, or a friend or two.

I have not previously used a travel agent as I've been comfortable with my trip planning. Sasha Pazanowski, however, was highly recommended by two seasoned travel families, as someone whom they would not travel abroad without her inputs. Having utilized Sasha for this special 2-week 50th birthday trip for my wife to France, I now view it precisely the same. From the start, Sasha listened well, asked great clarifying questions, and then curated a beautiful back-and-forth process of pointed options and suggestions to flesh out an itinerary far greater than what I would have created. She was patient, knowledgeable, and constructive throughout the iterations, and you could feel the joy she had in her crafting the right kind of travel for us. Even amidst her own travels, she remained exceedingly reliable, creative, and with high follow-through on our discussions. She also was able to extend great perks with her relationships with many hotels. We now will not travel on large trips without Sasha's inputs -- she's that good!

Sasha found the perfect places for us to stay in Paris and Florence. It was awesome that she offered different options that all took into account what we were looking for and our budget. We loved the app that she used to list the details of our trip. It made our planning so much simpler and we appreciate her attention to detail as well as her kind and responsive service. We can’t wait to use Sasha again for our future travels.

Sasha went above and beyond. Planned a great trip for us and super helpful and selecting hotels that would accommodate a three person family of a mom and two young adults. Sasha was able to pack into our seven day trip, plenty of activities in both London in Paris and we got a great overview of both cities with some really wonderful experiences. She was very detailed and provided a lot of help and reassurance while we were on the trip as well.

This booking experience with Sasha was fantastic! I can't rave enough about the care, time and detail she put into every aspect our trip of a lifetime to Japan. Sasha handled every detail -- from airport and bullet train transfers and tickets to finding the most spectacular hotels (including a traditional Japanese Ryokan) that didn't break the bank to amazing tours and activities. She provided options at various price points which was helpful. She even made the stress of planning a fairly complicated trip fun with her great sense of humor and top-notch travel industry knowledge and connections. We will never again plan a trip without Sasha.

A huge thank you to our travel agent, Sasha Pazanowski, who planned everything flawlessly for our group of eight. She was available the entire trip and made sure every detail—from transportation to accommodations—was seamless. I’d highly recommend Sasha for any type of travel—she made this trip truly unforgettable.
