Travel style

My travel style is all about balance! I love hitting the streets of a new city, discovering hidden gems and savoring world-class cuisine. But when it’s time to unwind, nothing beats a romantic and relaxing beach escape. Whether I’m packing in the adventures or soaking up the sun, I’m all about creating memorable experiences!

Syd attended to every detail for us from beginning to end. She not only booked our hotel, but also booked all our dinner reservations. She checked in with us during our stay and asked if she could advise or do anything else to make our stay better. We already booked a cruise with her. Syd is a dedicated worker who enjoys working as a travel agent. We will continue to book all our travels with her. She is a delight to work with!
