About
Hey, I'm Simon, a Santa Cruz, California native, math and science educator, surfer, husband, dad, and lifelong travel lover. With a passion for outdoor adventure, world exploration, and natural beauty, I specialize in cutting through the stress of travel planning to streamline your dream trip.
Travel style
I love designing trips that blend exhilarating outdoor adventure and deep relaxation, and strategizing how to get the best possible experiences with your time and budget. Specializing in California, the Mediterranean, and tropical regions, I create custom itineraries for solo travelers, couples, groups, and families, that weave together popular tourist spots and hidden gems.
I’m focused on finding accommodations that not only pair well with your itinerary, but that feel beautiful, comfortable and well-matched for your travel style. Whether you want to be out exploring or stay in and recharge, my intention is to design a trip that feels like your dreams have come true.
Ready for a beautiful adventure? Let's plan it together.
