Spring flings aren’t just about romance. Sometimes they’re about falling in love with a place.🏝

You know the feeling. That moment when you step off the plane, take a deep breath, and instantly know — this place is special. Maybe it’s the way the sun hits the water, the charm of a little café tucked on a quiet street, or the way the locals make you feel like you belong.🫶

For me, that place was the Dominican Republic. One visit, and I was hooked. I found myself daydreaming about it long after I’d unpacked my bags. For me it was the people, white sandy beaches, and diverse mountainous landscape.🌟🌊🏞

Have you ever fallen head over heels for a destination? The kind that lingers in your mind like a great love story?

Spring is when nature shows off, and some places take it to a whole new level!

Think cherry blossoms so stunning they don’t look real, tulip fields that stretch for miles, and hidden spots where spring flowers steal the show.

I help my clients lock in the best stays and experiences for these once-a-year spectacles, and if you want front-row seats to the magic, it’s not too late to plan.

Here are my top recommendations for this year:

🌸 Kyoto, Japan – Kyoto in cherry blossom season? Unreal. Ancient temples framed in pink, lantern-lit festivals, and hanami picnics under the petals. Timing is everything—I make sure my clients hit peak bloom for the most breathtaking views.

🌷 Amsterdam & Keukenhof, Netherlands – Tulip season is legendary here, but there’s a difference between seeing the flowers and experiencing them. I arrange private bike rides through the fields, VIP Keukenhof access, and the best boutique stays away from the crowds.

🌼 Washington, D.C., USA – The National Cherry Blossom Festival is stunning, but if you want picture-perfect views without the tourist chaos, location and timing are key. I help my clients score the best spots, from festival events to exclusive hotels near the Tidal Basin.

🌺 Provence, France – Spring in Provence means rolling fields of wildflowers, early lavender blooms, and the most scenic vineyard road trips. Add in boutique stays and incredible food, and it’s a spring dream done right.

These springtime moments don’t last long so prepping ahead of time is key. It’s not too late to lock in an adventure for this year, or if you want in for 2026, let’s get it locked in now.

You know that first perfect spring day? 😊

The one where you step outside, and the sun actually feels warm? ☀️
It’s like the world is waking up, and suddenly, you remember what it’s like to sit outside with a coffee, take a walk just because, or plan something fun for the months ahead.

That feeling?

It’s the same one I get when I help people plan their next getaway.
The kind of trip that makes you excited just thinking about it.
The kind that reminds you how good it feels to break out of routine and just go!

So, let’s play a game—if you could be anywhere in the world right now, soaking up that sunshine, where would it be?

What’s the REAL Difference Between a three, four, and five-star hotel?
Let me break it down for you:

⭐ 3-Star Hotels – Think Holiday Inn, Courtyard by Marriott.
Three-star hotels major on being the comfortable & functional option for travelers. Expect on-site dining, standard rooms, and solid service, but don’t count on luxury perks like room service or spas.

⭐ 4-Star Hotels – Think Westin, Hyatt Regency, Kimpton.
Four-star hotels are a step up in style, service & amenities. You’ll find upscale décor, concierge service, multiple dining options, pools & fitness centers. Rooms are typically more spacious with premium bedding.

⭐ 5-Star Hotels – Think Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis.
This is the ultimate luxury experience. Expect personalized service, Michelin-star dining, designer interiors, world-class spas, and exclusive experiences. The difference? Every detail is crafted around your comfort, privacy, and experience

Pro Tip: Star ratings aren’t always universal.
A 4-star hotel in Europe might feel more like a 3.5-star in the U.S. (or vice versa). That’s where expert guidance truly does come in to help you find the right fit for you.

03/07/2025

Ever thought about taking a solo trip, only to immediately hit yourself with an “uhhh… is this a terrible idea?” moment? 🫣

I get it.

Stepping out of your comfort zone isn’t exactly a walk in the park (unless, of course, you’re taking a solo stroll through a park in Paris, in which case, chef’s kiss).

And let’s be real, traveling alone as a woman comes with questions, mostly along the lines of:

Will I be safe?

Will I get lonely?

Who’s going to watch my bag when I need a bathroom break? 🤔

But here’s the thing, solo travel is like the ultimate main character energy moment.

No compromises.

No “where do you want to eat?” debates.

No waiting for someone else to get their vacation days approved.

Just you, doing exactly what you want, when you want, and realizing you’re way more capable than you gave yourself credit for.

And it doesn’t have to be some epic, multi-country expedition.

Maybe it’s just a spontaneous weekend getaway at a luxury hotel where you don’t have to worry about cooking a thing and can finally dig into that book that’s been on your nightstand for months.📖

The point is, it‘s *your* adventure, and sometimes, the best company you can have is yourself.🫶

So, for the solo travelers out there, what’s the best thing you’ve learned from traveling alone? Spill your wisdom in the comments! 😁

🌟🌟RENEW YOUR PASSPORT🌟🌟

Possibility that passport processing will see a slowdown in the coming months. Be PROACTIVE and get your passport renewed NOW!

Why renew now? 🤔

➡️Most countries require a minimum of 6 months validity from the date you RETURN to the U.S.

➡️Some countries require a minimum number of blank 'visa' pages. So, if you travel often, you may need a new passport well before expiration.

➡️Even though processing has been swift lately, there is anticipation that we will see slowdowns in the coming months.

The most common mistakes travelers make — from a travel advisor who books dozens of trips a year.👇

I’ve seen it all, from canceled flights that leave people stranded to fighting food poisoning on the other side of the world.

But these are the most common mistakes I see travelers making:

➡️ Packing way too much and then dealing with lugging heavy luggage all over the place

➡️ Skipping travel insurance because ‘nothing will happen‘ (until it does😬)

➡️ Booking connecting flights that leave you with just minutes to sprint between gates.

➡️ Choosing the cheapest deal and realizing they have the lowest room category and the worst flight option.

My job? To make sure that none of these happen to you.

I’ll guide you through everything from packing tips to insurance options, and the best way to maximize your budget.

I’m all about getting you to that first cup of coffee as you listen to the ocean and watch the sun sparkle over the ocean as seamlessly as possible. 🌊

It’s so easy to underestimate how many decisions go into planning a trip from start to finish. Maybe you’ve narrowed down your destination, but now you’re scrolling through hundreds of resort options, wondering, ‘how do I even choose?’🤷🏼‍♀️

Here’s how I help my clients cut through the noise:

✨ Start with your priorities. Ask yourself: What’s most important for this trip? Is it an all-inclusive experience, being close to specific attractions, or having a kid-free vibe?

✨ Consider your must-haves. Think amenities: Swim-up bars, private plunge pools, or even family-friendly suites with plenty of space. Make a list of non-negotiables and let that guide your search.

✨ Think about the vibe. Do you want something relaxed and intimate, or lively with lots of activities? The feel of the resort can make or break your trip.

✨ Lean on an expert. I recently helped a couple plan their honeymoon find the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. They skipped the overwhelm, and I handled the details.

Here’s the good news: You don’t have to figure it all out alone. I can help you find that one perfect resort or itinerary that checks every box—and then some. 🥂

Here’s the thing about booking a trip online through those big booking sites (Think Expedia, Booking...com, etc.)...

You’re a number in a queue, a confirmation email in their system. There’s no one looking out for you, no one who knows what you actually want from your trip.😕

But when you book with me? You’re never just a transaction — you’re my priority.

I’ll make sure every detail is right, from the perfect room setup to ensuring you avoid surprise construction at your resort. And if something goes sideways, I’m here to handle it, so you don’t have to.💪

Because when it comes to such a special thing like travel, you deserve to be a priority — you deserve care, attention, and someone in your corner. That’s what I’m here for. 🫶

Three Caribbean islands you’ll LOVE other than Jamaica and Dominican Republic 👇

Jamaica gets a lot of love (and for good reason), but if you’ve been before and you’re ready to explore a little deeper to some of the smaller islands, here are three I’m currently planning trips to for clients:

🏝️ Saint Lucia – Think lush rainforests, dramatic volcanic peaks, and the iconic Pitons. This island is made for couples who want romance and adventure. You can hike Gros Piton for epic views, then cool off in a private plunge pool with the ocean as your backdrop. It’s the perfect mix of thrill and chill.

🏝️ Grenada – Sure, it’s called the Spice Isle, but Grenada is full of surprises. The underwater sculpture park? A total must for snorkelers and divers. And if you’re a foodie, you’ll love visiting a local chocolate estate or sipping rum straight from the source at a distillery. This island has flavor in every sense of the word.

🏝️ Barbados – Yes, the pink-sand beaches are dreamy, but there’s so much more to love here. From luxury catamaran cruises to secret coves only the locals know, this island nails that blend of elegance and authenticity. And let’s not forget—it gave us Rihanna. Enough said.

Every island in the Caribbean has its own unique experiences and if you ask me, that just means more excuses to book trips.

Which island is your cup of tea? If I had to play favorites for a minute I’d pick Grenada. What about you?

Mexico is so much more than Cancun!

One of my favorite parts of being a travel advisor is introducing my clients to new ways to explore and go beyond Cancun.

And yes — Cancun is amazing. But if you’re looking for something different, here’s a few ideas:

Isla Mujeres
🌴 Postcard-perfect beaches without the crowds

Just a 20-minute ferry ride from Cancun, Isla Mujeres feels like a hidden gem. Think crystal-clear water at Playa Norte, vibrant local charm, and epic snorkeling with colorful marine life. It’s a quiet escape where time slows down, and yes, you can still sip margaritas by the beach.

Holbox
🏝️ This tiny island feels like a secret slice of paradise.

Holbox is where I send clients who want untouched beauty and a slower pace. No cars, just sandy streets, boutique hotels, and flamingos casually hanging out on the shore. Plus, the bioluminescent waters at night? Total bucket list material.

Playa del Carmen
☀️A little more action, but with a local twist.

Playa del Carmen is all about variety. Stroll Quinta Avenida for vibrant restaurants and shops, or head to quieter beaches just outside the main area. I always recommend a day trip to Cozumel for incredible snorkeling or diving, it’s just a ferry ride away.

Once you’ve picked your destination, you need the perfect resort or hotel to stay, and I just happen to be an expert in matching clients to accommodations that fit their needs and vibe.

Get in touch when you’re ready to plan your next getaway to Mexico!

Travel is Life.

Since the age of 7 I have had a passion for travel. Received my first airline “wings” from TWA at age 8 (flying solo w/airline chaperone). At age 13 I took my first cruise and it is then that I realized I wanted to "see the world!" Whether it's a day trip along the coast to dreaming of my European vacation and Mediterranean escape, I realized my true passion is not only traveling but sharing my passion with others. I have had the opportunity to visit such areas such as Tortola and Antigua, St. Thomas, St. Maarten, St. John, San Juan, Bahamas, Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Key West, and Jamaica. I’ve also lived or have visited over a dozen states within the United States stretching from California to Vermont. I also seem to have a “BUCKET LIST” that seems to grow daily (which includes a 50th birthday celebration to London, Ireland, Belgium and Amsterdam).

I plan travel with one thing in mind... get the "most bang for your buck" and committed to helping my clients get the most value out of their vacation, from start to finish!

Most of my travel experience consists of a lot of cruising. I would not consider myself an expert by any means but I have "learned the ropes" over the years. Especially those little details that I would have never thought about in the beginning. These details are what I enjoy sharing with people the most. Whatever I can do to help in making their vacation better!

So, next time you start to daydream about taking a cruise or going on vacation, you can look at my website or, just give me a call at 386-562-2996! Also, please feel free to tell anybody and everybody that you know that you have a “friend in the travel business” that will take great care of them.
