We all have goals in our professions, and one of my goals every year is travel sales of $1 million dollars. I am so proud to say that I just achieved this goal for 2024 (and my agency recognized this accomplishment, which I have shared below) 🥳

I am so very fortunate to have the absolute BEST clients, community, friends and family who always trust me with your travel plans! A huge THANK YOU to every single one of you who have supported me and helped me make this pipe dream a reality, you are truly the best and I could not do this without you!

🎉🎉Thank you, thank you, thank you! I can’t wait to see where in the world I help you travel to next! 🌎✈️🚢

Portugal! I have 2 different couples headed to Portugal this week on custom itineraries that I booked for them. One couple will be spending time in Porto and Lisbon and opted for all private tours and transfers to experience these destinations at their leisure and with a private guide.

The other couple will also be visiting Porto and Lisbon but wanted to add on some time in the Algarve region where they will spend some leisurely beach days and a tour of the famous sea caves!

If you have ever wanted to visit Portugal, but don't know where to start, I'd love to help you with your plans! Portugal has been my most requested European destination over the past 6 months!

🇱🇨 Saint Lucia! 🇱🇨

Have you been? Is it on your list? There are so many unique accommodations and experiences on this Caribbean island for families, honeymooners or multi generational groups! BONUS, there are nonstop flights from Boston on select days for all my local clients! ✈️

I spent today meeting with the St. Lucia tourism board and representatives from many local resorts, and learning about all of the different options available to my clients! If you’ve been thinking about a new tropical destination, let me tell you all about St. Lucia! 🏝️

Thinking of all the people in Ketchikan after the landslide there on Sunday 💛

We were just there on Friday, and while we only had a short visit, we loved walking along the harbor, getting entertained at the lumberjack show, and watching bald eagles soar in the wild 🦅

The residents we talked to are resilient and passionate about their community. Sending them all the thoughts and prayers as they recover 💛

It’s my last day cruising on the Norwegian Encore 🚢 I have tons to share when I get back about Alaska and cruising Norwegian, but I want to make sure I answer any questions you have while I’m still onboard! Ask me anything about cruising Norwegian or to Alaska!

21/08/2024

Juneau! You were stunning yesterday 😍. From glaciers to waterfalls, snow capped mountains to rainbows, whales to bald eagles. We even sailed away with the biggest full moon I’ve ever seen 🌕. There was more natural beauty than I could ever have imagined! Thank you for a stunning day 🌈🏔️🐋🦅

20/08/2024

I’ve been posting to my stories on Instagram to document my trip (for some reason the cross posting from IG to FB will not work if anyone knows how to fix this, please help)! 🙏🏻

But I wanted to post some photos here as well! We spent two fun filled days in Seattle before embarking on the Norwegian Encore to sail to Alaska!

I always recommend arriving a day early when cruising, just to make sure you don’t have any issues with flight delays. And if you’re cruising from a city you’ve never visited before, two nights is perfect!

We had a great time visiting the Space Needle, exploring Pikes Place market, and learning some history of the city during a walking underground tour. We even went to a tiki bar! Here are some of the highlights!

📣 Out of Office Alert 📣

I am so incredibly excited to be headed to Alaska on the Norwegian Encore next week! I had the pleasure of experiencing this ship in 2019 during it’s inaugural sailing events, and I can’t wait to sail on her again, and this time to one of my bucket list destinations, Alaska! 🏔️🚢

But first I’ll be exploring a new city (for me) and spending some time in Seattle! I’d love to know what you want to see from this adventure, what you want to know about Alaska and cruising on Norwegian, and I’d also love any recommendations for Seattle if you’ve spent time there before! We will be hitting all of the tourist spots, but I want to know hidden gems, and of course all the good eats!

Make sure to follow along on my IG page for all of the fun content!

Thank you for your patience while I am away! I will be monitoring emails and supporting clients in destination, but won’t be starting on any new requests until I return.

Who has Hawaii on their mind? I loved meeting with the team from Outrigger during the conference I recently attended, and I promptly came home and completed my training with them (and I may have also booked a future stay for myself to return to Maui)!

Hawaii has always been my happy place and I absolutely love to help my clients pick the perfect islands to visit and plan itineraries to see all that the islands have to offer! If you are considering a Hawaii vacation, I would love to help you with your plans! 🌺🏝

Let's chat ALASKA! 🗻I have absolutely been loving helping so many clients plan Alaska vacations lately! I have clients currently sailing on the Norwegian Encore to Alaska where they will get to sail thru Glacier Bay, and visit Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan (and I just so happen to be sailing on this same itinerary in just a few more weeks)! See below for our itinerary and stunning ship! 🚢

I also have clients headed to Alaska on Royal Caribbean in just another week, AND I'm currently working on 2025 Alaska cruise quotes sailing on Princess and including a land extension to Denali National Park and Mt. McKinley!

But it's not just cruises! I recently had clients return from a custom Alaska land vacation that I put together for them which included stays in Anchorage, Talkeetna and Denali with helicopter tours, a raft trip, train rides and more!

If you are considering an Alaska vacation, I'd love to help!

I am SO excited about this news! Norwegian Cruise Lines is bringing the NCL Breakaway to Boston in 2026! She will be sailing to Bermuda weekly from the Boston cruise port, this is HUGE!! Cruising from Boston is literally the easiest vacation I have ever taken, and this is a great ship with so many features! Plus Bermuda is truly paradise 😍 I’m sharing some pics from both Bermuda and my cruise on the Breakaway last year!

These itineraries are now available to book, in fact I already booked clients on this for May 2026!

If there is interest, I’m going to block some group space during one of the peak summer weeks (this means I can lock in cabins at a lower rate). Drop a comment below with what week you want to sail!

Selected advisors meet with leading cruise, hotel, tour and destination suppliers seeking to conduct business face-to-face.

During the conference, I attended:
☑️ 18 boardroom meetings for in depth training and discussions with specific suppliers
☑️ 52 1x1 meetings with select suppliers to generate new business and add so many more tools and resources for my clients!

Just to give you a small sample of some of the different companies I met with, I’ve included some of the companies that I had boardroom sessions with; everything from River Cruising, to Villa Rentals, to African Safaris and Caribbean Resorts!

With all of these new suppliers and resources, I can truly help you plan vacations anywhere in the world! 

Where do you want to go? Let me help you get there!

I just spent several nights attending a conference at the beautiful Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood, FL. This resort is on a stunning stretch of beach and would be perfect for a few nights pre or post cruise to extend your vacation! I also met with the team at Visit Lauderdale during my stay, and talked to them about all of the fun and unique experiences in the area!

Remember, when I book your cruise vacation for you, I can assist with all of those pre and post cruise add on’s like hotel stays, transfers and tours!

This is too fun not to share! You all know how much I love to travel, and want to see the world 🌍 🤩. When I’m not traveling in real life, I like to jump on my treadmill and do a workout wherever I feel like traveling virtually thru the iFIT program. Today was Hawaii, yesterday St. Lucia, last week Bora Bora, Bryce Canyon and Italy. The options are endless! Many of you know that a couple of weeks ago I completed a rim to rim hike across the Grand Canyon, and I was so thankful to have been able to train so much on my treadmill that I posted in the iFit Facebook group, and they asked me to be the member spotlight of the month! So if you happen to be an iFIT member, check your newsletter! 😄 It was fun to see my picture and story in the newsletter today!

And if I can ever help you plan a bucketlist adventure, please let me know!
