Happy New Year! What was my favorite trip of 2024? Glad you asked! The highlight was finally experiencing a river cruise! Our journey started in Budapest and ended in Prague. Even though we had been to several cities on previous trips there is always more to explore and learn! Where will 2025 take you?

Merry Christmas!

This month has flown by and it has been busy around here!! What have I been booking lately? I’m glad you asked…..Italy is my most often requested destination, followed by Alaska, Hawaii, and Caribbean cruises. Also working on a two month trip to the South Pacific and Asia! And did I mention Norway and Denmark?! I love helping my guests see the world on a trip planned just for them!

As we celebrate Thanksgiving, may you enjoy time with your family and friends and enjoy good food and fellowship!

Instead of thinking about election results today, why not focus on your next vacation?!

I absolutely love planning European adventures - every trip is unique and customized just for you! This family was headed to a wedding in Ravello so we planned extra time in Italy to make more memories.

Comments like these make my❤️happy! “Thank you so much for making this very stressful vacation be a vacation we will never forget! Neither Carlee nor I could ever have made this such an effortless and organized vacation.” And this: “Daniel and I had the time of our lives over the last 10 days. Without a doubt we would not have had such an incredible experience without you!“

Thank you Bell and Schiffner family for trusting me with your travel plans!

I have traveled to over 35 countries so far….where will your next adventure take you? I’d love to help you plan the perfect trip and make the process easy so you can relax and enjoy the world!

Have you been dreaming of cruising in Alaska, but not crazy about a large ship? I have just the thing for you!

Azamara Cruises recently announced their return to Alaska in 2026! Even though I have cruised Alaska twice, I am seriously considering a third voyage!! You may be wondering why in the world I would want to go again. Aren’t all of the cruises essentially the same with the same ports? Azamara is truly unique - here’s why:

Azamara Cruises has four ships with 700 passengers and always includes gratuities, a beverage package, a special AzAmazing Evening and White Night event, unique itineraries with more time in ports so you can fully experience the culture, wonderful entertainment, and a relaxed feeling on board. In addition to some of the usual ports like Ketchikan and Juneau, Azamara will include some of the less traveled ports like Haines, Valdez, Nanaimo, and Klawock. And did I mention no crowds?

Sound interesting? Let’s talk - soon! Now is the time to book for the best pricing!

Questions I am asked regularly or posts I see on social media:
 ”We are planning a trip to (fill in the blank) and it’s overwhelming - do you do this kind of trip?”
 “I’m trying to book a cruise and I’m so confused - can you help?!”
 “The Venice water taxi was so pleasant until I realized I was on the wrong one.”
 “I’m in Florence and can’t get tickets to the Accademia Gallery to see the statue of David…guess I should have planned ahead.”

Sure, you can book your cruise yourself or spend hours online finding hotels, trains, and tours for that European vacation, but why not trust a professional who has traveled to over 40 countries on land and sea? My training, experience, and attention to detail lets you enjoy your vacation and eliminates stress and worry. Let’s plan together!

Helping guests make memories is the best part of being a travel advisor! I had the joy of watching the journeys of my travelers this summer!

One family made memories in Mexico as they celebrated their oldest daughter’s graduation. Seeing thsee words when they arrived made my day! “Day 1 of our family vacay started out with a pleasant flight experience, a nice surprise with a huge 2 room suite (thank you !), dinner and a sunset.“

For one special couple we were able to arrange a birthday celebraton on top of Mt. Pilatus during their European vacation. Priceless!

Let me walk you step by step to plan your next adventure!

It’s always fun when I hear from this adventurous couple! “We’re going to Kenya….we were wondering if we could do a layover in Egypt to see the pyramids.”. Of course!!!!

I was able to arrange a driver and guide to greet them at the airport, get their visas for Egypt, tour the Pyramids, Sphinx, and Sakkara complex, and overnight at the Cairo airport before making the journey home.

I love making dreams come true! What’s on your bucket list?

Travel Tip Tuesday: Did you know that some countries require that your passport have at least six months of validity beyond the dates of your trip? Some airlines will not allow you to board if this requirement is not met.

Be sure to check your passport’s expiration date. Right now there is beta testing for online renewal at https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports.html?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAqbBk5u_ojqrM_ew4av6-m2-m67ch&gclid=CjwKCAjwtNi0BhA1EiwAWZaANAzANTaYx9AJ-pQFTnI98gnrRcFxVhYs4uFq_uw_xMpXpatrTJ4s6hoCrU8QAvD_BwE. It took a few tries to get in, but I was able to renew mine online and it was super simple!

UPDATE - I received my passport in one week!!!!!!
