✅ A spontaneous flight to somewhere unforgettable - YES
✅ Morning coffee watching the early morning sun over the ocean on a beautiful island - YES
✅ Learning to make pasta somewhere in the Tuscan hills - HECK YES!
2025 can and SHOULD be the year you say yes to more of the things you’ve always wanted to do and since my brain thinks in travel my mind immediately goes to hopping on planes (or trains) and taking trips.
So this is me nudging you to say yes to travel too!
Whether that’s finally touching down in a destination you’ve always wanted to visit, taking a spontaneous trip to switch up the routine, or even just booking a cute hotel for a weekend trip.
Tell me in the comments, have you said yes to any trips this year yet? ⬇️

It’s absolutely not too late to escape the cold but the clock is definitely ticking ⏰
I just booked clients in at Secrets Tides Punta Cana just in time to save them from the winter coats and the snow shoveling.
My client and her partner will be turning on the “out of office” and unplugging for a week and enjoying some much-needed beach and spa time.💆🏼♀️
And I’m handling all the details like finding flights, matching them up to the right resorts, and booking accommodations, so their last-minute trip will feel way less chaotic.

Feeling like a VIP when traveling isn’t only exclusive to people who are booking luxury getaways.
✅ You’ll feel like a VIP when you get a personalized itinerary planned for you without having to lift a finger.
✅ You’ll feel like a VIP when everything is booked, all the logistics have been taken care of and sent to your inbox before your departure.
✅ You’ll feel like a VIP when you run into challenges on your getaway, but instead of sitting on hold for hours to solve it yourself, you have someone to call who will take care of it.
When you work with me, you’re on a small list of clients I work with every year to plan their honeymoon or anniversary getaway. You’re not just a number in a queue of millions all having to call a 1-800 number for help.
Okay, who’s ready to feel like a VIP when you travel in 2025?

Here’s the problem with booking the cheapest vacation package 👇
It feels like a win, right? Knowing you’re finally making those travel goals come true without breaking the bank.
But what happens when the cheapest package means arriving at your resort too late and losing one whole vacation day or includes the resort that’s a two hour drive from the airport which will no doubt lead to a meltdown from the kids?
I recently helped one of my clients [upgrade from a basic resort room to a suite with a private plunge pool for just $20 a night more.]
No, that’s not a typo.
It’s the difference between looking for what’s cheapest and looking for value.
A small tweak like when you decide to go on your getaway can result in money saved and so much more value added to your getaway.
It also helps to have someone with their eyes on offers and promotions that could match up with your trip, which is exactly what I do.
This year, let’s make sure you get the most out of your vacation days.

Hello to my amazing clients, followers and travel family! 🫶
I wanted to express my deepest gratitude for the overwhelming love and support I've received these past weeks following the unexpected loss of my partner and best friend of 26+ years.
Your kind words, comforting gestures, and simply being there for me have meant the world.
While grief is a long journey, I'm slowly starting to navigate my way back. I will be gradually returning to work as I continue to heal.
Thank you again for your understanding and continued support. It means more than words can say. ❤️
Chrystie xoxo

Here’s an idea 💡: This spring, skip the crowds and hop on a river cruise instead to see some of the most charming, and often missed, parts of Europe.
But first, you have to choose which river cruise sounds most like you 👇
➡️ The Rhine River: Germany, France, the Netherlands—it’s like a greatest hits album of Europe’s most charming spots. Sail past fairytale castles, wander medieval villages, and soak up all the storybook vibes.
➡️ The Danube River: Ten countries, one epic journey. From Budapest’s glittering lights to Austria’s vineyard-covered hills, this river knows how to keep things interesting.
➡️ The Seine River: Parisian icons? Check. French countryside charm? Double check. This river is basically a love letter to France, and you’re invited to read every line.
Spring is calling, and these rivers are the answer — think mild weather, fewer crowds, and landscapes practically exploding with color.
Ready to pick your perfect cruise? Let’s chat about which one matches your style.
Wishing you a year filled with joy, love, and endless possibilities. 🙌
May 2025 bring you good health, success in all your endeavors, and unforgettable moments with the people you cherish most. ❤️

The past week and a half has been an incredibly difficult time for me as I navigate the sudden loss of my beloved partner/husband of 26 years. The grief has been overwhelming, and I haven't been myself.
I want to express my deepest gratitude for each and every one of you. Your love, support, and understanding have been a lifeline during this challenging period. Your kind words, comforting messages, and simply being there for me have meant the world.
Thank you for your patience with me as I've tried to process this immense loss. I appreciate you giving me the space I need while also offering your unwavering support.
I'm slowly learning to navigate this new reality, and your continued presence in my life is a source of immense comfort.
With love and heartfelt thanks,
Chrystie ❤️ xoxo

Can we add a dash of something special to your trips in 2025?
We’re talking perks, friend!🥂
You may not realize that working with me as your travel advisor opens the door to some pretty awesome travel add-ons.
🏨 Sometimes it’s a room upgrade.
🧖♀️ Sometimes it‘s a spa or dining credit.
💰 Sometimes it’s special group pricing not available to the public.
🍾Sometimes it's surprise amenities for a special occasion.
And you’ll always get the added benefit of having someone else fuss over the details, book all the things, and make sure it’s all in order.
Seriously, my clients will never go back!
“Awesome travel agent!!! She will go the extra distance. On our cruise we arrived with two bottles of champagne and decorations in our room. Thanks Christie!! Highly recommend this company.”
You can totally plan your own trips yourself, so the question really should be, is it worth the hassle?
The Pros:
✅ Full control: Every detail is yours to decide — flights, hotels, activities — it’s all up to you.
✅ The thrill of the hunt: Love chasing deals? This is your moment to shine.
✅ The planning high: Nothing is more exciting than envisioning the trip that’s waiting for you on the other end!
The Cons:
❌ Option overload: Hundreds of tabs open, thousands of reviews and no real clarity on what destination to book, where to stay, what to do, etc.
❌ The endless coordinating: You’ve got to map out the full itinerary, make sure everything jives, book the right flights, coordinate tours and experience — then you’ve got to keep track of it all.
❌ Valuable time lost: Unless you’re choosing a generic vacation package, then you’re stuck figuring out every single element of the trip yourself.
Now if you’re in the group who would rather delegate it and skip to the good part, you’ve come to the right place!
I’m currently talking with clients to map out their first few trips of 2025, want to chat? I’m in the office until December 20th. Give me a shout!

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.
My current supplier relationships include but not limited to; Carnival Cruise Lines, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line, Club Med, Sandals, Disney (cruise line, resorts and tickets) as well as connections to thousands of hotels and resorts across the world. Looking for a condo rental or cabin in the mountains? Let's try and find the perfect fit!
Whatever the reason you’re traveling, I've got you covered. Even if you only need to book a hotel because you’re heading to your family reunion in Cool, TX, and you refuse to sleep in your Great Aunt Betsy's guest room because it smells like mothballs :)
Thank you and I look forward to helping you plan your next vacation getaway!
Chrystie
P.S. Refer a friend to me and I’ll give them, and you, $25 in cruise cash on your next cruise!
