Things don’t always go according to plan. That’s where travel insurance comes in.

From delayed bags to unexpected cancellations, missed connections to medical emergencies, insurance turns a major headache into a minor hiccup.

It’s one of the smartest things you can pack, trust me.

The holidays sneak up fast—let’s make sure you

The holidays sneak up fast—let’s make sure yours is unforgettable for all the right reasons. ✨

Dreaming of snow-dusted villages and twinkling markets? I’ll find you the perfect chalet. Craving sunshine and bare feet in the sand? How about an overwater villa where holiday dinner comes with rosé and a sea breeze.

And because I specialize in sustainable luxury, I’ll connect you with places that not only feel festive and magical—but also give back to local communities and protect the destinations you love.

No scrambling. No sold-out suites. Just meaningful memories with every detail handled like a VIP.

Google can’t know you the way I do—and it cert

Google can’t know you the way I do—and it certainly can’t tell you which luxury experiences will leave a destination better than you found it.

The real value of working with me goes far beyond what any search engine can offer. Here’s why conscious travelers choose a specialist:

✨ Insider access with impact – Instead of mainstream resorts, I connect you with conservation lodges, local artisans, and family-run stays that rarely appear online. Imagine learning pasta secrets from a grandmother in Tuscany or staying at an eco-lodge funding wildlife protection—experiences that give back as much as they give to you.

✨ Travel that reflects your values – Luxury that uplifts communities. Adventures that support conservation. Cultural immersion that helps preserve traditions. I design every detail around what matters most to you.

✨ Responsibility at every step – Travel plans can shift. When they do, I don’t just rebook—I find alternatives that align with your values, from eco-certified hotels to local guides who keep your journey meaningful.

✨ Connections you can’t Google – The village baker’s pastries, a dinner that supports coastal conservation, an artisan teaching your kids a traditional craft—these aren’t happy accidents. They’re intentional touches that create lifelong memories while making a positive impact.

Ready to travel with luxury, purpose, and access that transforms both you and the places you visit? Let’s plan your journey. 🌿

City energy. Boutique luxury. Conscious hospitalit

City energy. Boutique luxury. Conscious hospitality.

Austin Proper in Texas checks all the boxes—including the sustainability ones that matter. Designed by Kelly Wearstler with bold textures and a lot of swagger, it feels more like an art collector's loft than a hotel, but one that's committed to protecting the creative city it calls home.

Right in the middle of downtown (walkable to everything—no car needed), this LEED-certified gem sources locally wherever possible. Their rooftop beehives produce honey for Goldie's craft cocktails, while The Peacock's mezze menu features ingredients from Texas farms and purveyors—yes, that famous hummus supports local agriculture.

Cool off at the rooftop pool with skyline views, knowing your stay supports a property that's actively working to preserve Austin's unique character through responsible operations and community partnerships.

Looking to experience Austin with style, substance, and purpose? This is the address and I have the connections to VIP you 😘

2026 is shaping up to be the year of "slowmance".

2026 is shaping up to be the year of "slowmance". Packed itineraries are out, and lingering, deeply personal honeymoons are in—which happens to be the most sustainable way to travel.

If you're dreaming of a post-wedding trip that reflects your pace, style, and story as a couple, here are three destinations where slow travel supports local communities:

🇮🇹 Puglia: In Italy's sun-drenched south, romance moves slowly and supports generational family farms. Stroll barefoot along quiet beaches, share long lunches at family-run agriturismos where your stay directly supports local olive and wine producers, and toast the sunset with locally-made Primitivo in countryside farmhouses that have been welcoming guests for generations.

🇯🇵 Japan: Peaceful mornings and temple bells set the tone for mindful travel. Stay in a traditional ryokan where centuries-old hospitality traditions are preserved, soak in a private onsen, and savor quiet moments over hand-whisked matcha with tea masters who've dedicated their lives to this ancient art.

🇦🇷 Patagonia: In these wild expanses, your slower pace allows deeper connections with conservation efforts and local gaucho culture. Ride through valleys with guides whose families have worked this land for generations, and choose eco-lodges that actively protect the pristine wilderness you're falling in love with.

Wherever you go, your honeymoon should feel authentic to you and beneficial to your destination. I'll help you create something personal, unrushed, and meaningfully connected.

This one's for the conscious food lovers who want

This one's for the conscious food lovers who want to taste a city's soul, not just its restaurants.

Capella Hanoi was just named one of the World's Best Hotels by Travel + Leisure, but what really excites me is how they're celebrating Vietnam's culinary heritage. Start with a hands-on pho masterclass led by local chefs who've perfected recipes passed down through generations—your lesson directly supports traditional cooking techniques that might otherwise be lost to modernization.

At Backstage, their theatrical Vietnamese fine dining experience features lacquered duck and river prawns sourced from local suppliers, ensuring your culinary adventure supports the very communities that make Hanoi's food scene extraordinary. Then descend to Koki, their subterranean Michelin-starred Japanese restaurant, where the 12-course omakase experience showcases how thoughtful fusion can honor both cultures.

This isn't just dining—it's cultural immersion that gives back to the destination as much as it gives to you. Ready to taste Hanoi through the eyes (and kitchens) of the people who call it home?

Big ships pass by. Small ships pull in and linger.

Big ships pass by. Small ships pull in and linger.

This is cruising for travelers who want more time and fewer crowds. Azamara’s ships dock where others can’t, slipping into quiet harbors just steps from sleepy villages and local markets.

With late departures and overnight stays, you get to experience destinations when the locals come out. On board, expect elegant spaces, standout dining, and a sense of calm that feels more boutique hotel than cruise ship.

If you’re dreaming of a slower, more meaningful way to explore, let’s plan it.

Wild encounters = unforgettable memories. 🌍 Families are seeking once-in-a-lifetime wildlife moments that respect and protect the animals they come to see:

🦒 Sharing breakfast with endangered Rothschild giraffes at Giraffe Manor in Nairobi (conservation at its heart)
🐘 Sleeping in jungle bubbles in northern Thailand, where elephants roam freely and are never ridden
🐾 Spotting rare black panthers on safari in India with expert naturalist guides
🦴 Watching wild meerkats emerge at sunrise near Botswana’s salt pans
🐻 Searching for spirit bears in British Columbia’s Great Bear Rainforest, led by Indigenous guides

These are the kinds of memories that change us—and help protect the wild places we visit. 🌿

San Miguel de Allende was just named the world’s

San Miguel de Allende was just named the world’s best city by Travel + Leisure—and it’s easy to see why. ✨

A UNESCO World Heritage city, it’s alive with color and culture: over 100 art galleries, a thriving creative community at Fabrica La Aurora, and a culinary scene that rivals much larger cities. 🌮🎨

For a stay that feels both boutique and deeply authentic, I love La Valise San Miguel. Behind a historic façade are just six suites, layered with curated art and local craftsmanship. Step outside to buzzing plazas and rooftop bars—or stay in for pure courtyard calm and sunlight. 🌿

Ready to explore the city everyone’s talking about—through a more authentic lens? Let’s start planning.

Not a hotel. Not a resort. Richard Branson’s own

Not a hotel. Not a resort. Richard Branson’s own private vision of paradise.

You arrive by boat as the cliffs glow—villlas carved Balinese-style into the hillside, lanterns flickering alive, lemurs and flamingos greeting you on the trail. This is Necker Island, Sir Richard Branson’s 74‑acre private retreat in the British Virgin Islands—once exclusively booked by groups, now offering individual room stays on select dates.

From cliff-side tennis and floating sushi bars to all-inclusive luxury served by a full staff, everything here feels slightly surreal—and entirely unforgettable.

Plus, Necker is committed to sustainability: powered largely by wind and solar, with conservation efforts and renewable systems aiming for carbon neutrality.

Paradise, Branson-style—luxury with a green edge. Ready to experience it? Message me to start planning.

Malbec mornings and mountain views—sustainably served.

At The Vines Resort & Spa, Argentina’s wine country goes VIP and eco-conscious. Nestled in Mendoza’s Uco Valley, this boutique escape was thoughtfully designed to blend with the land—using local stone and handcrafted concrete fixtures, minimizing carbon footprint right from the build

What’s more, the property’s Vines Foundation actively supports the local Tunuyán community through initiatives like food kitchens, vocational training, and an animal rescue shelter

All that, with wine-country luxe: private villas among the vines, asados under the stars, vineyard harvest days, horseback rides, and blending your own bottle as the Andes glow at golden hour.

Raise a glass—to luxury with heart.

Every traveler (and every trip) is unique. 🌍

Maybe it’s your time for a solo adventure through South America. Or a wellness retreat with your favorite group in Bali. Or that Bora Bora honeymoon you’ve been dreaming about.

Here’s the thing: every trip has moving parts, but I make it feel easy. For groups, that means aligning flights, villas, and activities—even across continents. For honeymoons, I add VIP touches like upgrades or private excursions. And for solo travelers, I recommend trusted properties and guides who care as much about the planet and community as they do about you. 🌿

What’s your next chapter? Let’s plan it together. ✨

Hawai‘i isn’t just one destination—it’s fi

Hawai‘i isn’t just one destination—it’s five distinct worlds, each with its own magic. 🌺

From Big Island’s active volcanoes to Maui’s humpback whales, Kaua‘i’s emerald cliffs, O‘ahu’s surf towns, and the quiet luxury of Lāna‘i—each island offers something unique. When you travel with care, you also help preserve these fragile ecosystems and support local communities who call them home.

I’ll help you choose the island that fits your style and arrange luxury villas, private guides, and experiences that honor Hawai‘i’s culture and land—so your journey is unforgettable for you and respectful to the islands.

Luxury on the water gets greener. At SeaDream Yach

Luxury on the water gets greener. At SeaDream Yacht Club, you’re sailing on just 56 staterooms, with a near 1:1 crew-to-guest ratio—and now you can dock with zero emissions, thanks to the entire fleet’s shore power connectivity

They were first in luxury yachting to ban heavy fuel oil (HFO), opt for lighter, cleaner fuel, serve expansive plant-based menus, and eliminate single-use plastics, including providing refillable glass water bottles and organic bath amenities

Plus—think barefoot Champagne & Caviar Splash® at secluded coves, secluded harbors, and that friendly-yacht vibe. Sustainable, intimate, unforgettable.

Croatia isn’t just pretty views—it’s private sailings to car-free islands, boutique stays in heritage towns, and seafood so fresh the boat’s still at the dock. ⚓️

Skip the cruise crowds and discover the authentic side: floating oyster farms, family-run vineyards, and coves locals only whisper about. 🌊

Luxury travel that’s authentic and kind to the places you visit. ✨

This year’s biggest travel trend? Going big—and going beyond the usual paths. ✨

Think private safaris in South Africa that support local conservation, spring strolls beneath Japan’s cherry blossoms, Zodiac cruises through Antarctica’s pristine waters, or starlit nights in Australia’s Outback.

With private guides, eco-minded lodges, and insider perks only a travel advisor can unlock, I’ll help you design a journey that’s as meaningful as it is unforgettable.

Where do you go when you want luxury with a side of adventure and sustainability? ✨

At Stillpoint Lodge in Alaska—accessible only by boat or seaplane—you’ll find eco-luxury woven into every detail. From solar design, reclaimed wood, and farm-to-table dining to community-made ceramics and composting with resident hens, the lodge truly lives in harmony with its wild surroundings.

Spend your days kayaking with sea otters, heli-hiking across glaciers, or fishing for salmon the chef will prepare that night. Evenings bring cedar saunas, fireside cocktails, and multi-course meals that celebrate Alaska’s bounty.

Adventure and sustainability, beautifully balanced. 🌿
