About Maria + Nick

Meet Maria Northcott, the heart and soul of Steward and Porter Travel. Her journey into the travel industry was as serendipitous as the travels she plans. It took a spark at the tender age of 18, while working as a reservations agent at a ski resort in Park City, and a bolt of lightning realization decades later in 2020 to finally embark on her dream to become the travel agent

she is today. Steward and Porter Travel isn't just a name; it's a throwback to an era where travel was synonymous with elegance and impeccable service. It's where the heavy lifting is done for you, and you're transported – quite like royalty – through an effortless, worry-free journey. With 26 countries stamped on her passport, Maria confesses that Greece holds a special place in her heart – a testament to the wondrous marriage of scenic beauty, cultural richness, and the unparalleled warmth of its people. When the suitcases are tucked away, Maria finds joy in the simplicity of life in Maine. With three kitties, a love for literature, a passion for fitness, and the tranquility of home comforts, she embodies the spirit of a world wanderer who treasures her roots. The mantra "it is what it is" can turn potential travel tribulations into treasured tales. For those itching to craft their own escapades or simply want to start a conversation with this kindred spirit of travel, an email to [email protected] is the beginning of your next great journey. Maria's expertise is not just in the logistics of travel, but in weaving experiences that resonate with the soul. Now, with the world as our oyster and Maria as our guide, the question isn't 'if' we should go, but rather 'when'.

PRO TIP: You’re allowed just “one tax-exempt portable computing device” per person when entering Mexico. More than that and you could pay a tax on the additional devices.

Travelers bringing electronic devices to Mexico are getting hit with hefty fines at Cancun airport. Here's what to know about visiting Mexico with laptops and iPads.

I received this glowing review from Brooke who just returned from her honeymoon in Greece!

"We are so glad we left the scheduling and planning to Maria for our elopement in Greece! Since all of the “not so fun” parts of planning were done before hand, all we had to do is follow along and have fun! It made for such a relaxed travel experience and vacation. She also held our hand through all of the pre trip prep and helped us make sure we had everything we needed!

I was referred to Maria from a friend. We told her our budget, and where we wanted to visit. Maria made the process so easy for us!
If you want to plan a trip in the most enjoyable, simple and worry free way, Maria is the one!"

Thank you, Brooke! 🫶🏼

This is yet another reason why we don’t book Basic Economy flights and we recommend you don’t either. This is such a great quote: “what [you] save in airfare [you] pay in time.”

United Airlines offers less value on a basic economy ticket than competitors do. They don't allow basic economy passengers to bring a regular carry-on bag on, and they haven't allowed basic economy passengers to check in online, wasting passengers' time. Fortunately they're relaxing the online check...

The very cool origin story of Virgin Voyages. It's a quick read!

I’ve wanted to launch a cruise line since I was 27-years-old. At first, I wanted to create a cruise-line for under 30-year-olds. They it became a cruise line for under 50-year-olds. When we were finally able to bring Virgin Voyages to life, we ditched the age limits and just said, ‘no kids’… Here’s the full story: https://virg.in/4bxjggR

Peat Cutting on the Isle of Lewis
Peat Cutting on the Isle of Lewis

Check out these two men cutting peat on the moors on the Isle of Lewis, Scotland. The families there are each given a plot of peat to cut. Even in this day and age, they’ll cut it and dry it and use it for heating.
