About Me

Norwegian Fjord
Norwegian Fjord

My philosophy is simple: "Life's Greatest Adventures Start Here," and I live by that every day, transforming travel dreams into meticulously planned realities. I didn't just fall into the travel industry; I was drawn to it by an insatiable curiosity and a lifelong love affair with exploring new horizons.

 

My journey began with a passion for meticulously organizing my own travels, a skill that soon blossomed into a profession. I found immense satisfaction in turning my personal adventures into tailor made experiences for others. This passion translates into a commitment to unparalleled personal service. I approach each client's trip with the care and attention I'd give my own, ensuring every detail is thoughtfully considered and perfectly aligned with your unique vision for the perfect vacation.

 

My expertise isn't confined to a single niche. I've navigated the serene beauty of European river cruises, felt the raw, majestic power of Alaska's landscapes, experienced the truly incredible wonder of an African Safari, and lost myself in the rich historical and cultural narratives of Europe. This broad spectrum of experience allows me to curate journeys that are both diverse and deeply immersive, offering opportunities to truly connect with the destinations you choose. I excel at crafting trips that push the boundaries of the ordinary, opening doors to authentic experiences and hidden gems that you might otherwise miss.

 

Furthermore, I am deeply committed to sustainable travel. I believe that the privilege of exploring our incredible planet comes with a responsibility to protect it. That's why I actively seek out and collaborate with travel suppliers who share a dedication to responsible business practices and environmental stewardship. Together we can ensure that the breathtaking places we visit today remain vibrant and cherished for future travelers.

At it's heart, travel is an essential element for the soul. It's more than just sightseeing; it's about discovery, connection and personal growth. I encourage every client to embrace the opportunity to learn, to experience, and to be transformed by the world. Let me help you embark on an adventure that will not only create lasting memories but also enrich your perspective.

Our favorite vacation of all time!
Reviewed By KC - Copley, Ohio | Traveled to Europe
Lori did a fabulous job of creating a vacation to remember. We traveled around Europe on a cruise visiting France, Italy and Spain with some extra days in Paris and Normandy. She found some wonderful excursions which allowed us to see some magnificent places and experience some exciting adventures as well. She organized all of the information in a nice binder which made it simple to follow throughout this two week adventure. I would highly recommend Lori for your European and Cruise Vacations.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

40th Anniversary trip to Italy
Reviewed By Kblisa - Ashland, Ohio | Traveled to Italy | Europe
I reached out to Lori with what I wanted to happen on our trip. Sites we wanted to see and towns we wanted to visit. She created a fabulous trip. We did not want to go with a group. Lori arranged transportation for us to all the hotels and tours. We had a number from someone in Italy to give us advice or help if needed. That too was arranged by Lori! We will use Lori again for sure!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Amazing Recommendations
Reviewed By Raylynn5069 - Youngstown, Ohio | Traveled to Acapulco | Guerrero | Mexico
Not only did Lori provide us with multiple great recommendations while on our vacation search, she was easy to work when we settled on our perfect destination. Lori shared so much information about our resort (apps to download, maps, restaurant guide, etc) that we felt right at home on day one. Lori is amazing!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

An amazing trip to Portugal
Reviewed By JVS - Ashland, Ohio | Traveled to Portugal | Europe
Lori helped us book a wonderful two week vacation for our daughter’s graduation trip. Everything went as planned, Lori took care of every detail. We had two private tours that we didn’t necessarily ask for, but ended up probably being our top two excursions on the trip! Portugal is beautiful, clean, safe, excellent food, and nice people.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
