There are thousands of travel advisors and each one brings their own expertise and set of values. You’ll have the best travel planning experience if your values align with the person planning your travels. Here are some of mine!

• Quality Over Quantity. When you work with me I will strive to get you the best value for the right vacation, versus getting the lowest price for a crappy trip.

• Practice What You Preach. I invest my time and money into traveling often. so I can provide you with the best advice.

• Leave It Better Than You Found It. I design trips to respect local cultures, protect the environment, and ensure that tourism benefits the communities visited. Similarly, I do not support activities that exploit animals or harm wildlife. I only recommend experiences that prioritize animal welfare and follow ethical, conservation-focused practices.

• Talk the Talk. My background in opera performance means I’ve studied multiple languages - Spanish, Italian, French, German, Turkish. Speaking to people in their native tongue, even a few basic phrases will get you far and earns you a lot of respect.

• Time is Money. My prior career in event/wedding management means I know how to create and manage a detailed timeline.

• Take Responsibility. I believe it’s important to own up to one’s mistakes and make every reasonable effort to make it right.

• Everyone Deserves Kindness. That’s it.
