If my feed has been a little quiet lately, it’s because life has been unusually busy!

While I’d love to post every day, I have always prioritized showing up fully for the things that matter most. When I’m not at my desk, you can usually find me...

• focusing on my family. School drop-offs, classroom activities, and my kids' busy schedules come first. My family is my "why."

• planning trips. In addition to creating personalized itineraries for my clients, I spend a lot of my working hours maintaining certifications and staying up to date on the destinations I offer. I want my clients to have the best possible experience.

• volunteering: Between leading a local Girl Scout troop and dedicating time to non-profit advocacy, I make sure to spend time giving back to my community.

• traveling. I’m constantly taking my own trips to scout the best destinations and local gems for your future vacations. The photo below is at a very small (4 table) Prosciutteria we enjoyed in Rome. It was delicious!

I may not always be the most frequent poster, but I am always here, working hard to bring your travel dreams to life with the same care I give my own family and community.

I've heard it a lot lately: "Travel is too difficult with kids 0-5." And while it’s certainly different, stopping completely means missing out on incredible benefits for both you and your little ones!

​From a young age, travel creates a foundation for confidence and curiosity. We're teaching them to be comfortable with change, to easily assimilate into new cultures, and even to be responsible for their own little carry-ons as they grow!
​
As for "they won't remember," I certainly will, and we have the photos! Our memories are worth the effort.

Pack the extra snacks, buy the cute scooter suitcase, and book the ticket! The benefits far outweigh the inconveniences.

A gentle reminder...
When natural disasters hit, the islands we love need support, not pressure to open instantly.

✔️ Residents first
✔️ Relief crews first
✔️ Compassion and patience

There will be a time to return and uplift local businesses, and we’ll be ready when the islands are. Until then, here's how to stand with affected communities in the Caribbean:

Today’s the perfect reminder that love doesn’t have to be bought...it can be rescued. ❤️
