About Me

European Culture and Heritage Specialist

I come from many generations of travelers; my travel career began the day I was born.  I have been fortunate to travel often, primarily throughout Europe, with a strong focus on France and Switzerland.  For me, travel is holistic. The method of transportation, the accommodations, the food and wine, the festivals, the history, the literature, the language and the music all combine to create a total experience that will stay with you a lifetime.There are moments in my life when I find myself daydreaming about the fried rye bread dipped in garlic sauce that I ate in Tallin, Estonia.  Or my first view of the Matterhorn from the train between Tasch and Zermatt.  My goal is to create similar experiences and memories for my clients by understanding their needs and customizing their travels to reflect what is important to them.  With strong attention to detail and over 20 years of experience of creating custom itineraries, booking ocean and river cruises, finding the best tours and planning resort vacations, I am excited to share the world.
