About Me
Group Travel Coordinator
A summer job in the 70's at Seatac Airport introduced me to the excitement of travel, meeting new people and learning about alluring places in a busy but happy atmosphere. My degree from the University of Toledo in Speech and Theater with Recreational Education continues to be an underlining resource for my desire to detail your group journey to your specifications. I firmly believe that a vacation is “an opportunity to vacate oneself for a time from the place where one currently resides at home/work to recreate and renew oneself.” I wish "All your Journeys may be like a Priceless Sunset."
Catholic Pilgrimages
At the same time as my commitment and participation increased in the National and Seattle Council of Catholic Women, the opportunities to travel to some of the most popular Catholic Pilgrimage sites did also. Multiple visits to Israel and the ancient Mediterranean along with Ireland and Italy fueled my passion to learn more about my church and her teachings. In the United States, I can arrange domestic Pilgrimages to DC, EWTN and 1-5 day Pacific Northwest Catholic bus tours. For many Holland America Line cruises, there is a chaplain onboard and daily Mass. Let me find the best options for your special journey.

Israel group bus tour
Reviewed By Aleatha - Woodinville, WA | Traveled to Israel ~ Middle East
Kathleen has made several trips over the years. With her experience she was able to lead our group with expertise. She provided us all with matching color sweaters which helped keep everyone in our party together. She personally knows people in Israel and we got to visit them as an extra treat. She was friendly and very helpful to each and everyone in the group.

It was wonderful, and was pleasant trip all the way, though, not able to explore the gift shops....longer (Smile).
So blessed to have made this pilgrimage with Kathleen's leadership.

It's one of the best trips that I have ever taken. I enjoyed hearing the history of each site especially from LeRoy and his friend. Thank you very much, Kathleen.

"Veronica,
I'm glad you liked our surprise guest "Leroy Lee" the key builder of the team that built the statue. I had spoken with Leroy a few weeks earlier and he said he was too old to join us but surprised me the night before we departed with a call and promise to join us. Kathleen"

Kathleen steered us to the perfect holiday on Holland America. Everything was WONDERFUL, and she was instrumental in making it so. THANK YOU so very much. Let's do it again - SOON.
Kathleen Tansey, ECC responded
"Receiving pictures from Alta & Anne from the ship with great comments was wonderful to see several times. They sent a message from the airport as they were returning home with sad faces as they didn't want the trip to end. Already asking for another smaller ship experience for 2026."
