Travel style
Former hostel backpacker, now four-star hotel adventurer. I believe that people can see the world in style without breaking the bank. My favorite trips include a healthy mix of restful down time, outdoor adventures and sightseeing… oh and mezcalitas!

Lauren's reviews
Lauren was an exceptional travel advisor. This was a small trip, but no detail was too small for Lauren. She worked hard to make sure the hotel fit everything I was looking for. She is the best travel agent I have ever worked with and has a wonderful personality which made the experience seamless. Thanks again Lauren! I look forward to using you for all of my future travels.
