“Adventure may hurt you, but monotony will kill you.”
I realized my dream of traveling the world solo for a year after walking away from my 15-year Advertising Sales career that spanned from New York to Chicago. What started as one year turned into two, and what started as a passion turned into a career.
So far, I visited over 30 countries throughout Europe, Asia, Africa and South America and have no plans to stop! While traveling, I love finding off-the beaten-path restaurants and bars to mix with the locals.
My specialization is in Beach & Sun; Food & Wine and LGBTQ travel, both for individual travelers and groups. Most of my clients are successful professionals who entrust me with making the most of their vacation time, as they have the means, but not necessarily the time or expertise, to plan their travels.
