Based in Orange County, United States
As a seasoned travel advisor based in Orange County, California, I specialize in crafting personalized journeys that blend meticulous planning with spontaneous adventures. My expertise spans diverse destinations, including Africa, Japan, Disney locales, boutique experiences, and romantic getaways for couples. My passion for travel is deeply rooted in my background as a former public relations professional and educator. These experiences have fueled my love for history, culture, and exploration. Alongside my husband, I have traversed the globe, immersing ourselves in the unique stories each destination offers. I believe in a travel style that balances thoughtful preparation with the freedom to embrace the unexpected. This approach allows me to curate authentic experiences, from savoring local culinary scenes to selecting accommodations that reflect the essence of each place. My goal is to help travelers "live like a local" while also experiencing the iconic landmarks that define each destination. Some of my favorite hotels that exemplify this philosophy include: - Stanley & Livingstone Boutique Hotel: A sanctuary of refined opulence amidst Africa's untamed beauty. - Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa: A Disney resort in Hawai'i offering excellent accommodations and activities for the entire family. - Rosewood Miramar Beach: A Santa Barbara icon turned foodie heaven on one of the dreamiest stretches of the American Riviera. Whether you're seeking a luxurious retreat, an adventurous expedition, or a family-friendly vacation, I am dedicated to crafting experiences that resonate with your unique interests and desires. Let's embark on a journey together to create memories that will last a lifetime.
