Madrid, Spain

My name is Lolita Smith, and I am the driving force behind Smith-Hairston Travel. I embarked on my journey in the travel industry in June of 2023. My love affair with exploration began much earlier, ignited during a transformative Christmas break in Spain during my 10th-grade year. Roaming through the vibrant streets of Madrid, Barcelona, Segovia, and Avila, I was captivated by the kaleidoscope of cultures, planting the seed of wanderlust.

With a family history steeped in globetrotting adventures, it was only natural for me to follow suit. Yet, it was a chance encounter with a travel video, graciously shared by my hairstylist, which propelled me into the world of travel agency. Fueled by my own passion for exploration and a desire to share the wonders of the world with others, I eagerly embraced the role of a travel agent.

A firm believer in nurturing the next generation, I have seamlessly integrated my daughter into the heart of Smith-Hairston Travel. Entrusted with the realm of marketing and advertising, my daughter’s creative flair infuses the business with vibrant social media content and eye-catching graphics, breathing life into merchandise that carries the essence of our shared vision.
