My Story

Florida transplant from Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I have a passion for travel and for helping people. My husband and I, along with friends, enjoy motorcycling, including long distance trips. Aruba has been my destination many times and now retired, I have traveled to Italy and Switzerland by train. Living in Florida we have access to many cruise ports. While I will assist anyone in any type of travel plans, I am currently learning what I can about cruising. Having had a very successful career as a certified therapeutic recreation specialist, I will combine my passions for travel and inclusion and focus on travel planning for individuals with a handicap or special needs.

Travel Style

I have traveled to many U.S. cities, including New Orleans, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Boston, Charleston, Savanah, and Myrtle Beach. I have traveled to Europe with a guided group tour and recently independently, by train, through Switzerland and northern Italy. Pros and cons to both but I enjoyed both and learned so much to pass along! I love visiting new places with breathtaking views and engaging in the culture. For over 30 years I have visited Aruba staying a total of 52 weeks. I have also visited Barbados, Curacao, Saint Martin/Sint Maarten, St. John, and St. Thomas US Virgin Islands. I would love to help you plan your trip!

Valerie asked all the right questions to get me close to my location. She also asked my needs and wants for the hotel. Valerie was courteous and pleasant to talk with.

Ms Hayes arranged for me to be approximately .3 of a mile for my conference. That was awesome!! She made the booking smoothly and was personable on the phone. I enjoyed the experience!
