It's not too late plan your summer adventure. While popular destinations like Italy and Paris are booking up, there's magic in exploring lesser-known locales!

Check out these six underrated summer travel spots that offer a refreshing alternative to the usual crowds:

✨ Instead of Spain, wander through the fairytale charm of Budapest.
🌅 Swap the busy UK for the dynamic and sunny vibes of Copenhagen.
🌊 Trade the bustling Greek islands for the serene beauty of the Mani Peninsula.
🏰 Opt for Prague over Paris to dodge the Olympic rush.
🌺 Visit vibrant Puerto Rico instead of Mexico for an early summer getaway.

Nothing makes me think YIKES more than seeing online forums and messages of people whose vacations were ruined because they got to their resort or hotel, and it was not as expected.

Now, some of you may not necessarily care too much about where you lay your head at night, you’re there to explore and enjoy the destination.

But for some of you, the resort or hotel experience can absolutely make or break your whole trip.

👉 My advice?

Don’t go off of the photos online, and outdated reviews you’re hoping still reflect the current situation.

I love that I can give my clients dynamic knowledge of resorts and hotels, either by visiting myself or by tapping into my network of trusted people on the ground.

They get the scoop so they don’t end up at a place with shabby rooms, stiff mattresses, and a pool that’s closed for maintenance.

When you’re ready to book trips fully armed with ALL of the information, not just what you see online, this travel pro over here is ready to help!

Before you dive into planning your next vacation, take a moment to really think about the goal of this trip.

What do you need right now, and why are you planning this vacation?

🌟 Today is Global Travel Advisor Day!🌍

A year ago, I embarked on this entrepreneurial journey to fuel my passion for travel and destination events. With a background in planning events around the world, I knew it was time to channel my expertise into creating unforgettable experiences for my clients. Exploring new cultures and uncovering hidden gems has always been my joy, and now, I get to share that passion with you!

Some little known facts about me:

🔸My passion for traveling started when I signed up to do a volunteer project in a small village called Jonzac in France shortly after high school. My job was to rebuild a castle wall using old stone masonry techniques. I slept on a cot in the cafeteria of an old primary school with 20 other teens from around the world. Three of us decided to ditch the group and took a train to Paris to spend our last few days enjoying the city 😂

🔸I got inspired to plan events professionally when I saw J.Lo in the movie ‘The Wedding Planner’. So I left my job in early childhood to work for an event management firm in California. Let’s just say, it was more like working for the ‘Monster-in-Law’, so I decided to quit and go back to work in nonprofit.

🔸I love planning events for other people but when it comes to planning events for me and my family, I’d rather not do it 😅 So I’ve convinced my two young kids to take trips to celebrate their birthdays in lieu of me throwing their birthday parties 😂

So, why choose a travel advisor like me for your next adventure? It’s simple! I bring a wealth of knowledge, insider tips, and personalized recommendations to every itinerary. But what truly sets me apart? I love nothing more than surprising and delighting my clients with unexpected experiences that they wouldn’t have discovered on their own.

Here’s to the joy of exploration, the thrill of discovery, and the magic of travel! ✈️

25/04/2024

Perks like....

Room upgrades, spa credits, little surprises in your room.

But also...

✅ Someone to save you time by planning your trips for you.

✅ Vetted information so you can make informed decisions about where to stay, what to do, etc.

✅ Support while you travel.

✅ No having to call a 1-800 number and sit on hold for help.

Just a handful of the perks you get when you work with an experienced travel advisor like myself.

If you're interested in elevating your future travels, send me a DM, I'd love to help.

I hear wedding bells!

Does this sound like you: Recently engaged, crazy excited and dreaming of a destination wedding, but not 100% sure where to start?

Allow me to introduce myself!

My name is Jacks and I help client book their dream destination wedding all over the world.

From Hawaii to the Amalfi Coast, I’ve got the real scoop on what it takes to plan a destination wedding, from insights on the best venues to guidance with getting a larger group of people to a destination.

Book a discovery call with me through the link in bio today so we can get ahead of the game.

Not nearly enough travel blogs and influencers are talking about the fact that when you book your trips online, you’re leaving a ton of value on the table.

An influencer may get the red carpet rolled out for them, but what about people who don’t have thousands of followers?

The quickest way to more perks, room upgrades, special pricing, etc, for your next bucket list trip is to work with industry insiders.

That’s me, friend!

I have a personal relationship with countless hotel managers around the world, access to those special perks I mentioned above, and the inside track on the latest information at different hotel properties — because nobody wants to pick accommodations that are undergoing renovations.

Have questions about planning and booking travel with me? Fire away in the comments, or send me a DM.

🌟 I am still relishing every moment from our unforgettable European adventure! 🌍 From the dazzling streets of Paris to the serene beauty of Geneva and Zurich, our family trip was an absolute dream. ✨

Our hearts are still soaring from our stay at the magnificent Pullman Paris Montparnasse. The memories of their VIP service and warm hospitality continue to bring smiles to our faces. A HUGE thank you to their attentive staff, who graciously embraced and nurtured my children's fascination with all things Pokémon! We filled our days visiting the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe, La Tour Eiffel, Disneyland Paris - not to mention an unforgettable lunch at the quintessential Maxime Frédéric at Louis Vuitton café and their LV Dream Exhibition.

The next leg of our trip was to Switzerland and the charm of Geneva captured our hearts. Our stay at the Eastwest Hotel only added to the enchantment. I find myself reminiscing about the cozy ambiance and impeccable service and delicious cheese fondue at the famed Auberge de Saviese. A day trip to the village of Gruyere for a history lesson in cheesemaking and a quick jaunt to the historic Ca***er Chocolate factory for a taste of their decadent chocolate.

And then it was off to the breathtaking beauty of Zurich, where Alex Lake Zurich provided us with a sanctuary of relaxation and luxury. Danke schön, Alex Lake Zurich, for an unforgettable stay! We spent the day wandering the streets of Old Town Zurich. And of course, we couldn’t leave without a trip to the iconic Lindt Home of Chocolate, where we lived out our W***y Wonka dreams.

As we continue to reel in delight over the memories of our European escapade, we extend our sincerest gratitude to these wonderful hotel partners. We barely scratched the surface and can’t wait to go back again. Until next time, Europe! 🇫🇷🇨🇭

In a world filled with inspiring travel influencers, it's crucial to approach their recommendations with a discerning eye. While many offer valuable insights, it's essential to recognize the potential biases and limitations in their suggestions. From sponsored partnerships influencing their choices to the exclusive treatment they receive, what works for them may not align with your preferences or expectations. Before booking that dream trip you spotted on your feed, remember to conduct your own research and consider seeking guidance from a trusted travel advisor. With travel poised to be more unpredictable than ever, having a second perspective can ensure your journey is truly tailored to your needs and desires.

There are five-star hotels, and then there are hotels for which “five-star” doesn’t quite cut it. Some properties just knock it out of the park. Enter: Aman hotels.

Aman, Sanskrit for “peace,” is the crème-de-la-crème of luxury travel. What began as a luxury hotel in Phuket, Thailand (the idyllic Amanpuri) has since expanded into a global collection of out-of-this-world getaways in 20 countries, from Sri Lanka to Montenegro. (And did I mention that 15 Aman resorts are located within a UNESCO World Heritage Site?)

Needless to say, I'm in love with all things Aman. Their locations are breathtaking, their design and accommodations cannot be matched, the food is to die for and their holistic wellness programming is transformative (trust me on this one).

Check out a few of my favorite Aman properties and why they're on my bucket list via the link in my bio.

Truth be told, planning your own vacation is like planning and hosting your own surprise party - what’s the fun in that?

Why not allow yourself to be taken care of for a change?

I start the process by having you fill out a quick inquiry form.
This is where you give me an idea about the type of trip you want.

Then we get together on a planning call where I get to know you - expect me to ask rings like what kind of experience are you looking for (i.e. beach, city, cultural, adventure) and what are your top three priorities for this trip (i.e. sightseeing, local cuisine, wellness, shopping).

After that, I present you with your itinerary designed with your interests and needs in mind.

And even if you’re the type who loves to plan your own party, that’s okay, this is a team effort, and we work together every step of the way.

Do you have any questions about travel planning? Comment below or send me a DM anytime.

When someone says wellness getaway, so many places come to mind.

But if you’re looking for luxury accompanied by wellness, then let me introduce you to Costa Rica.

And here’s why it’s so great for this type of getaway:

📍Costa Rica boasts a wide array of luxury wellness retreats and spas, offering an extensive range of holistic treatments, yoga and meditation classes, detox programs, and personalized wellness consultations.

📍Luxury wellness resorts in Costa Rica incorporate eco-friendly practices, such as using renewable energy, organic farming, and eco-conscious architecture, allowing visitors to reconnect with nature while minimizing their impact on the environment.

📍The country's abundance of natural beauty provides a serene and tranquil setting for wellness activities, promoting relaxation and rejuvenation.

📍The "Pura Vida" lifestyle, meaning "pure life" in Spanish, is deeply ingrained in Costa Rican culture. This philosophy emphasizes living life to the fullest, appreciating the present moment, and finding joy in simplicity. Costa Rica's laid-back atmosphere, friendly locals, and emphasis on well-being make it an ideal destination for those seeking a luxurious wellness experience.

When you need more travel inspo for that relaxing getaway that’s been on your mind, you know where to find me.
