I know how much you’ve looked forward to this time in your lives and that you have a list of places to explore - my husband and I also have our “travel bucket list” dreams! I know how important those once-in-a-lifetime travel experi

ences are to you - and I know how to make your vacation dreams come true. My expertise as a travel planner for over 10 years helps me keep up with it all. It allows me to find the best options for what my clients need. It helps me to get them the best price and the most value. It helps me to make sure that they are up to date on all that they need to know to travel. My expertise means that my clients make the best possible vacation investment, and have the best possible vacation of their dreams.

👀 ✈ As we near the end of 2024, let's take a look at some of the, ahem, more interesting items confiscated by TSA this year.

😳 Although we all would likely be in agreement that bringing a loaded gun onboard via a stroller is probably prohibited.... 🤦‍♀️

New Years is in just a few days, and that can mean only one thing - WAVE SEASON is coming! 🌊

Explore. Dream. Discover. Create memories for a lifetime.

From America’s amazing national parks, to relaxing days in a Caribbean paradise, to theme park thrills, to seeing the world on a cruise, memories to last a lifetime are just a vacation away.

Finding the best places to visit - and the right vacation for YOU - can be a challenge however. The internet is filled with sites offering “cheap vacations”, but the reality is many of these seemingly great deals are anything but. And a great deal isn’t so great when it turns into a vacation nightmare.

So how do you know the difference?

Vacations are an investment and like any investment, expert advice and reliable information can mean the difference between a good investment or a bad one. This is where a travel planner - an experienced professional - can truly be your best friend!

Whether you’re planning a vacation just for your family or a multi-family reunion….

Whether you’re traveling with small children, teens, adult children, or grandparents – or all of the above…

Whether you’re celebrating your child’s birthday, graduation, or your own special anniversary….

……when you’re ready to make those vacation dreams come true, my help is here for you. From helping you decide on the perfect destination, to making sure you get the best price combined with the greatest value, to providing you with everything you need to know for your trip, to being there to help if something goes wrong - I’m with you every step of the way.

A carefully planned vacation with the help of a travel expert can save you money and time both before you leave and while you are there, and is the single best thing you can do to make the most of your vacation dollars and insure that your vacation is truly magical from beginning to end.

Vacations can create memories that last a lifetime, and I can’t think of anything more precious than that. Those precious memories deserve the best planning possible!
