I've wrapped my time in Cannes attending the International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM). I am so honored to have attended this exclusive, 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭.

Why is this important to my business and what value does it bring my clients? ILTM introduces an unrivalled selection of luxury travel brands to it's extensive network of 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅-𝒑𝒊𝒄𝒌𝒆𝒅 𝒍𝒖𝒙𝒖𝒓𝒚 𝒕𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍 𝒂𝒅𝒗𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒓𝒔. 🙋

ILTM events are an invaluable platform for networking and strengthening business relationships so when I call to book my clients, I not only have an existing relationship, I have a strong connection that 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐬 𝐦𝐲 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬. Even if you are only booking a 5 star hotel or resort, you really should call me before booking. As a traveler, it pays to have an advisor with deep, personal connections and industry prowess booking that stay for you.

Sometimes luxury is fine linens and impeccable service. Sometimes luxury is having your favorite drink on ice waiting for you upon checking into your suite. Sometimes luxury is enjoying a jaw-dropping sunrise over the French Riviera. But,

Luxury is always the subtle touches and quiet reminders that you are known and valued.

In the travel industry, it's who you know as much as what you know and do. For luxury -seeking clients, I'm the greatest asset in their travel pack. My discerning clients understand the value I bring to their travel and I love playing a role in their incredible journeys.

From 5-star hotel bookings to six figure vacations, I'm here to help you .

Thank you for trusting me to be part of these moments.

All smiles when you are with friends who are colleagues you admire and adore. Few industries are chock full of people with such passion, grit, professionalism, and adventure-fueled spirits. I love sharing space in my travel industry.

Off the beaten path travelers take note: there is more to Croatia than her (amazing and beautiful) coast. Near the border of Serbia lies Osijek. Croatia's fourth largest city is known for its green areas, cultural sites, and local beer and wines.

Here, Croatia Full of life shares a two day itinerary in a town with good rail connections to neighbouring parts of the Balkans to Hungary.

Travel enriches us in ways very few things do. Worldly experiences make us wiser, more compassionate, and more appreciative of what we have and how others live.

Book the trip, I can help you

It's hard to believe, but 3 weeks from today I'll be on the ground in Europe attending one of the most prestigious events in luxury travel: International Luxury Travel Market (ILTM) Cannes.

This show is where the leading names in the industry come together to create visionary travel experiences, form powerful partnerships, and shape the future of luxury travel. This is 'the event' for unparalleled networking opportunities and is a chance to bring even more refined and purposeful journeys to life for my clients.

This will be my final travel destination of 2024, a year of epic adventures and experiences. Each journey has been an investment to better serve my clients and set myself apart as a trusted authority in this industry.

30 hours after leaving our hotels in Beijing we're back from an incredible whirlwind of a journey to China with Viking.The awesome people in this photo are adventure loving and FUN! I'm so lucky I got to experience the best of China with them!

Let's get you booked on your very own Viking Journey. Message me to schedule a call.

There's something incredibly beautiful and moving about tai chi. Watching a Master demonstrate amongst typhoon rains is next level.

We're racing Typhoon Kong-rey to Shanghai. If you haven't seen the news, this typhoon is presently pummeling Taiwan and is the largest storm by size to hit Taiwan in almost 30 years. Authorities in Shanghai say this storm might bring the worst rain Shanghai has seen since 1981; we're scheduled to arrive at 3am local time (I believe).

The sea has been angry today but the Viking team is incredible. Honestly, I'm not sure I'd feel as safe and secure with any other supplier; the officers and crew onboard are largely Chinese and they *know* this stuff.

I'll drop links to news articles in the comments and I'm sharing a stock photo of Shanghai since it's unlikely we'll see her in all her glory (and to appease the FB algo).

Dan Dan Noodle on board the Yi Dun ship sailing in China. The food on board is ridiculously delicious.

When you explore off the beaten path China, you encounter mainlander Chinese visitors who are so excited to see a Westerner in real life that they want their photo with you. You realize this might be the best moment of genuine connection you'll have in your life and you gleefully oblige...and then you exchange photos on WeChat (and you figure this all out despite not speaking a word of each other's language).

Ask me about booking your trip to China.

One more blog about Croatia for your reading pleasure. This one covers all the things we did on our trip.

Seriously, I'm your go-to girl when you are ready to 'go there'. Let's do it.

Croatia Full of life

Each stop on my Croatian Cruise revealed a different side of a country whose authenticity is preserved even as it welcomes the world.

Yesterday, a year's worth of planning came to fruition.

A small but mighty group of ASTA - American Society of Travel Advisors Board members and volunteers for the Raleigh, NC ASTA Chapter pulled off one of the bigger local events for our industry and it was amazing.

We:
🤝 sold out our exhibitor trade show space
🫶saw (again) how excited and generous our travel industry suppliers are in both their sponsorship and advisor support, and
👊 had to increase capacity to fit all the enthusiastic advisors who came from all over the state of North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.

The travel industry is about collaboration. It shows in everything we do and in every way we build a stronger community and better businesses to help our clients experience the world.

Thank you to all our supplier partners and sponsors and thank you to ASTA for your support of our industry.
