The World is Waiting Travel

12/02/2025

The most common mistakes travelers make — from a travel advisor who books dozens of trips a year.👇

I’ve seen it all, from canceled flights that leave people stranded to fighting food poisoning on the other side of the world.

But these are the most common mistakes I see travelers making:

➡️ Packing way too much and then dealing with lugging heavy luggage all over the place

➡️ Skipping travel insurance because ‘nothing will happen‘ (until it does😬)

➡️ Booking connecting flights that leave you with just minutes to sprint between gates.

➡️ Choosing the cheapest deal and realizing they have the lowest room category and the worst flight option.

My job? To make sure that none of these happen to you.

I’ll guide you through everything from packing tips to insurance options, and the best way to maximize your budget.

I’m all about getting you to that first cup of coffee as you listen to the ocean and watch the sun sparkle over the ocean/as you munch a croissant from a cute little cafe in Nice as seamlessly as possible.

Let’s make this your best travel year yet — DM me and let me know what destination you’d like to visit next.

Three Caribbean islands you’ll LOVE other than Jamaica 👇

Jamaica gets a lot of love (and for good reason), but if you’ve been before and you’re ready to explore a little deeper to some of the smaller islands, here are three I’m currently planning trips to for clients:

🏝️ Saint Lucia – Think lush rainforests, dramatic volcanic peaks, and the iconic Pitons. This island is made for couples who want romance and adventure. You can hike Gros Piton for epic views, then cool off in a private plunge pool with the ocean as your backdrop. It’s the perfect mix of thrill and chill.

🏝️ Grenada – Sure, it’s called the Spice Isle, but Grenada is full of surprises. The underwater sculpture park? A total must for snorkelers and divers. And if you’re a foodie, you’ll love visiting a local chocolate estate or sipping rum straight from the source at a distillery. This island has flavor in every sense of the word.

🏝️ Barbados – Yes, the pink-sand beaches are dreamy, but there’s so much more to love here. From luxury catamaran cruises to secret coves only the locals know, this island nails that blend of elegance and authenticity. And let’s not forget—it gave us Rihanna. Enough said.

Every island in the Caribbean has its own unique experiences and if you ask me, that just means more excuses to book trips.

Which island is your cup of tea? If I had to play favorites for a minute I’d pick St Lucia. What about you?

Ever tried arguing with an airline at 2 AM?

As a travel advisor, I have 🙋‍♀️ and believe me, it’s the last thing you want to be doing when you’re in vacation mode.

When people ask me “Why would I work with a travel advisor when I can just book my trip online?”

There are lots of reasons but one of the biggest? Because when things go sideways, you won’t have to be the one dealing with it all by yourself.

Instead, I’ll be the one making the calls, finding alternatives so you can still be in the moment and enjoy your trip.

For you that means no waiting on hold, no stress, no last-minute scrambling — just problems solved. Wouldn’t that peace of mind be nice on your next trip?

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 find the perfect hotel, with a gorgeous beach, in a room with rooftop private plunge pool for only $50 nore per night than what they had found.

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..

This year, let’s make sure you get the most out of your vacation days.

It’s absolutely not too late to escape the cold but the clock is definitely ticking ⏰

I just booked clients at Xcaret Arte in Mexico just in time to save them from the winter coats and the snow shovelling.

Now my clients will be soaking up sun, sipping drinks and enjoying all of the eco parks while many of us will be sitting here in the cold.

My client Aubrey and her husband will be turning on the “out of office” and unplugging for a week at Xcaret Arte.

And I’m handling all of the details like finding flights, matching them up to the right resorts, and booking accommodations, making park and dinner reservations so their last minute trips will feel way less chaotic.

Message me today, and let’s get you somewhere warm before the next cold spell or snowstorm hits ❄️

Tired of bundling up and braving the chill?

Let’s rewrite the story of your winter.

Trade those icy sidewalks and layers of fleece for warm breezes, golden sunsets, and the sound of waves lapping at the shore.

I just helped a client who was over the cold and snow book an escape to Aruba. They’re leaving behind the cold in a few weeks and it’ll be just the thing to breathe a little life back into them.

This could be you — sipping cocktails on a sun-soaked beach or soaking in ocean views from your private infinity pool.

Why wait for spring to feel alive again? Send me a DM, and let’s get something booked!

The destination you didn’t know you needed on your radar for 2025 if you’re celebrating an anniversary, a big milestone, or want to get away on a romantic adventure, just because!

I’m talking about Saint Lucia!

Now, Saint Lucia. Let me just say — the Pitons are not just for pretty pictures (though they are pretty gorgeous). This island is for you if you’re into rainforest hikes, lazy days in natural hot springs, and sunsets so perfect they’re almost unreal.

I had a couple who wanted adventure and romance (yes, you can have both), and they ended up hiking one day and soaking in a mud bath the next. Their verdict? “We’re never going back to the same-old beach vacay.”

Here’s the thing: Saint Lucia isn‘t for the “seen it, done it” crowd. It’s for the couples who want to skip the main Caribbean hubs like Jamaica and DR and who want something unforgettable but without all the chaos.

2025 is the year to shake it up!

Ready to start planning? Let’s chat—I’ve got ideas for days.

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.
