River Cruise and Soft-Adventure Travel Specialist

My Son Ruins, Vietnam

I help curious, active, often mature travelers explore the world through river cruising, soft adventure, and meaningful, low-impact travel. My clients often seek experiences that go beyond the surface — cultural connection, nature, comfort, and a sense of discovery.

Before launching my travel business in 2019, I spent decades in hospitality and sales, building a career around great service and personal connection. I’ve lived in Europe, sailed the Mediterranean, trekked through the Amazon, and explored ancient temple ruins in Vietnam. Later in life, I returned to school to earn degrees in Environmental Studies and Sustainability — a choice that deepened my commitment to thoughtful, low-impact travel. These experiences shape the way I design travel — with insight, empathy, and an eye for the extraordinary.

My specialties include:

• River cruises in Europe (France, Germany, Austria, the Netherlands & more)
• Soft adventure & cultural immersion (Peru, Ecuador, Vietnam, and beyond)
• Personalized itineraries for solo travelers, couples & multi-generational families
• Nature-based travel with sustainability in mind
  
  

I work with travelers who want more than a vacation — they want stories to bring home lasting memories.

I'm proud to be part of a trusted host agency and a leading travel consortium, giving my clients access to top-rated suppliers like AmaWaterways, Avalon Waterways, Intrepid Travel, and G Adventures, who help me to offer exclusive perks and support.

I’ve participated in AdventureNEXT Latin America in Ecuador and attended an ASTA River Cruise Expo, where I connected directly with nine river cruise lines and a canal barge company. These opportunities — along with ongoing webinars, conferences, and industry trainings — have given me a deep, firsthand understanding of the travel landscape and the suppliers I recommend.

Why travelers choose me:

• Real travel experience — not just what’s in the brochures
• Personal attention, creative ideas & boutique-level care
• A respectful, low-impact approach to people, culture & place
• Support before, during, and after every trip

If you're dreaming of a river cruise, a journey into nature, or a custom trip built around your pace and passions — I’d love to help you plan it.
