The Journey is the Adventure

Exploring beyond the apparent. Going behind the scenes. Relishing the local fare. Each destination has a number of hidden gems that are worth seeing ... that's what I like to find. Of course we have to visit the the popular sites. It's what we see in pictures and feeds our inspiration. That's where we want to go. Wandering beyond is what I do. Finding that area not everyone sees. That is the true adventure and I would love to help you find yours.

LifeStraw … the perfect item to pack!

Feel guilty about buying quantities of plastic bottles filled with (hopefully) purified water on vacation? Have you seen images of beautiful destinations littered with discarded plastics? There is a solution and I’ve tested it! It’s called the LifeStraw.

The LifeStraw is designed to be used by one person. It comes in a... Read more from my LifeStraw … the perfect item to pack! story.

Kind Hearts in Egypt

This story fills my heart.

My sister and I disembarked that morning last May from the MS Monaco Nile Cruise in Edfu, Egypt. The city with population of @133,000 was filled with merchants and shoppers preparing for the upcoming Ramadan Holiday beginning that weekend.

We took our excursion in a horse drawn carriage... Read more from my Kind Hearts in Egypt story.

Underwater Adventures in Belize

Thinking about where to escape to the winter? Maybe my snorkeling pictures from Belize will give you inspiration. I've never seen such a variety of sea life, nor have I had such close encounters with the active sea life as I did in Belize. I've taken many Spring Break trips over the years...

Experiencing Ecuador Behind the Scenes

When one thinks of Ecuador the Galapagos Islands are the primary goal of most travelers. What my family discovered there went far beyond Darwin’s studies. We found ourselves relaxing in the lush countryside of the Northern Andean Highlands. A perfect place to rest for a couple days. Soak our tired bodies...

Best Travel Service Ever

Reviewed By Twins fans in Boston - Cottage Grove, Minnesota | Traveled to Boston ~ Massachusetts ~ USA
Leslie was so helpful putting the Boston trip together for us. She gave us tips and information that made the trip so smooth. She arranged the flights and hotel, a car picked us up at midnight at the airport and took us right to our hotel. The arrangements were excellent-Leslie even had us staying at the same hotel the Minnesota Twins were at! Leslie was so good to work with, she answered all our questions and got answers for us when needed. We had a medical emergency the last day of our trip and missed our return flight home. With this delay, we had less than 48 hours to get home for a family funeral. We knew we had to get a new flight as quickly as possible. When no one else was able to help us, we called Leslie. Within an hour Leslie had a flight for us to ensure we would be home in time for the funeral. Without Leslie, we may have missed the funeral. Thank you Leslie for everything you did for our family.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends

So helpful!

Reviewed By Cam - Riverfalls | Traveled to Thailand ~ East and Southeast Asia
Where do I begin?! Leslie was so incredibly helpful in planning our trip to Thailand! We had never been to Asia and we didn't know where to start. Her vast knowledge of that region was mind-blowing. Thanks to her and the suppliers she works with, we had the trip of a lifetime!

Leslie Strowbridge responded:
WOW! Thanks for the glowing review. Helping my clients experience that "trip of a lifetime" is what I aim for. Would love to hear stories & see some pictures. Stop in. We can discuss that next adventure;)

Great Job!

Reviewed By Happy Cruiser - Lino Lakes, MN | Traveled to Hawaii ~ USA
I had an idea of the type of trip I wanted with no idea of where to go or how to start. We wanted activities. Not one to lay on the beach all day. Good Food & Drink. A variety of locations. No more than a 10 hour plane ride. No big hotels. No crowds. Something out of the ordinary. Leslie planned perfect trip. It couldn’t of been better. She selected an Hawaiian UnCruise. Small expedition ship. Only 18 cabins. Kayaking, snorkeling & swimming in waterfalls. Gourmet cuisine & craft cocktails. 4 Hawaiian islands without repacking our suitcases. Great job.
