About Me

Atypical Travel Agent/Scout

Niagara Falls Maid of the Mist
Niagara Falls Maid of the Mist

I'm way more into crafting unique experiences than just doing the typical tours. I love taking people off the well-trodden paths and nudging them to explore beyond their comfort zones. I actually moved to Eastern Europe in 1994 with a one-way ticket, thinking I'd be back in the US in a year. Ended up staying for almost 8 years! I couldn't put into words what I experienced, so I started showing others through travel. After years of helping friends and family plan trips, I finally listened to their advice and became a travel agent. I feel more like a guide or a scout, showing people paths to adventures they never knew existed. Places like Antarctica and the Galapagos Islands are amazing and achievable, you just need the right help, and that's what I want to be.
