About Me

New Mexico desert
New Mexico desert

I'm an adventure travel specialist with boots on the ground across 61 countries. I've hiked the entire Pacific Crest Trail and Continental Divide Trail, completed 18 safaris across Eastern and Southern Africa, and led multi-day backpacking expeditions on five continents. I design hiking and multi-adventure expedition tours and safari experiences for travelers who want to get outside and explore the world but not give up your creature comforts — whether solo or in small groups. Currently based in Prague, I'm also your expert on Central Europe exploration and can guide you through the best active routes and hidden trails across the region. I'm passionate about ensuring you have memories to last a lifetime.

Hiking & Backpacking Tour Specialist

As a hiking tour specialist dedicated to crafting transformative mountain adventures across the world's most iconic trekking destinations, my expertise spans the Himalayas, Mt Kilimanjaro, Machu Picchu, the Alps, Camino de Santiago, the Rockies, Patagonia and more. I can match adventurers of all levels with carefully curated itineraries that balance challenge, culture, and unforgettable natural beauty. Whether you're drawn to spiritual pilgrimage routes, high-altitude summits, or multi-day wilderness treks, I bring both personal hiking experience and trusted supplier partnerships to ensure your mountain journey exceeds expectations. From logistical planning to on-the-ground support, let's transform bucket-list dreams into reality.

Honeymoon Bliss: Italy
Reviewed By KL - Clearwater | Traveled to Italy | Europe
We had the best honeymoon trip planned for us! It was such a treat to have our flights, hotel, and itinerary all planned out, especially after planning our own wedding. We visited Rome, Florence, and Venice. We plan to use her services again to visit the northern parts of Italy.
