Bucket List Vacation Expert

Christmas Market River Cruise

I am a luxury travel advisor and the owner of  My Bucket List Vacations, a boutique travel planning service dedicated to designing exceptional, personalized journeys around the world.

 I specialize in luxury river cruises, bespoke land itineraries, expedition and specialty group cruising.  I curate travel experiences that are refined, immersive, and entirely tailored to each client’s vision.  My approach goes far beyond booking trips — I serve as a personal travel concierge, taking the time to understand my clients’ interests, pace, and travel style so every itinerary feels effortless and uniquely theirs. Whether it is a romantic European river cruise through the Rhine or Danube, a privately guided cultural journey through Italy, or an adventure expedition to the Arctic, Galápagos, or Antarctica, I ensure every detail is expertly arranged.

I am particularly known for my expertise in luxury river cruising, where I match travelers with the ideal cruise line, stateroom category, and itinerary based on their preferences. I guide clients through ship selections, excursions, pre- and post-cruise extensions, and exclusive amenities, often securing added value through my strong supplier partnerships. My knowledge allows clients to enjoy the elegance and intimacy of river cruising while feeling confident that every element has been expertly planned.

In addition to river voyages, I design bespoke luxury travel across the globe. From private drivers and hand-selected boutique hotels to curated culinary experiences and unique cultural access, my itineraries blend comfort, authenticity, and memorable moments. Clients appreciate my attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to transform ideas into seamless, high-end journeys.  

For travelers seeking exploration and discovery, I also specialize expedition cruises. I work with respected expedition operators to provide once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to visit remote and extraordinary destinations with knowledgeable guides, small-ship intimacy, and enriching educational components. My guidance helps clients choose the right level of adventure while maintaining comfort and safety.  

My mission is simple: to remove the stress of planning while elevating the travel experience. My clients value the reassurance of having an advocate before, during, and after their trip, along with access to exclusive promotions and insider knowledge. Through thoughtful planning, strong industry relationships, and a passion for meaningful travel, I help her clients turn their bucket lists into beautifully realized memories.
