Its very simple, I have a passion for travel! My passion for travel shows in every client’s travel experience. Helping families plan multi-generational trips so that Grandpa and Grandma can watch their smallest grandchild enjoy seeing the ocean for the very first time, these are the memories that last forever!! Watching each of the families that I work with grow, from spring break travel, to engagement trips, to destination weddings, and onto their own new family vacations, it's all so incredibly meaningful. My love for travel has brought me all over the world, including Australia, Tahiti, Maldives, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Mexico, St. Lucia & Europe, just to name a few. I have also had the opportunity to experience 4 European River Cruises which are now extremely popular amongst all ages. When I get to travel to new destinations or even some of my favorite destinations, each experience helps me to help you better. Do you have a bucket list? Does it grow with each passing year? Pick something off the list, and let's plan the trip of a lifetime!!!! Perhaps it's seeing the Opera House in Sydney, Australia, or the Glaciers of Alaska, maybe it's visiting the Hawaiian Islands. Whatever is next for you, let's make it a reality!

London was a dream. From iconic landmarks to rich culinary surprises, here’s a snapshot of my recent adventure through this vibrant city.
A Hotel Lover’s Dream
As a travel advisor, hotel tours are a must—and in London, I explored nearly a dozen properties. From classic elegance to modern luxury, each one had its own charm. I took notes on amenities, room layouts, dining options, and overall ambiance to match future clients with the perfect stay. I also have a few new favorites I can share with you.
A Royal Moment at Windsor
No visit to London is complete without a brush with royalty. Windsor Castle was beautiful and rich in history. Watching the guards in their iconic red uniforms was a highlight—a moment straight out of a storybook.
Iconic Sights and Towering Views
Of course, I played tourist too. Big Ben stood proudly against the skyline, the London Eye offered endless views of the city, and Tower Bridge was a picture-perfect stop. Each reminded me why London is one of the most beloved cities in the world.
Tea, Please!
One of my favorite experiences was a Thames River tea cruise. We enjoyed the river waves, lovely views, and a tiered tray of “snickty-snacks”—everything from finger sandwiches to delightful pastries. It was the perfect pause in a busy day.
The Tube: Efficient and Fun
I can’t say enough good things about the Tube. It was easy to navigate, reliable, and gave me that true local experience. Zipping from one side of the city to the other was a breeze.
Dining Delights
London’s food scene surprised me—in the best way. One dish I’ll be dreaming about for a while? A mushroom risotto that somehow managed to be both comforting and elevated. Whether I was grabbing a bite in a cozy pub or dining in style, the meals were consistently delicious.
Trafalgar Square:The Heartbeat of the City
Trafalgar Square buzzed with energy. I spent time wandering nearby shops, soaking in the culture, and enjoying a relaxing meal al fresco. The people-watching alone was worth it!
Sips Worth Savoring
And yes—coffee lovers, rejoice. I had some truly excellent cups while exploring the city. London knows how to do coffee right.
London captured my heart with its mix of charm and modern flair. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a returning traveler, there’s always something new to discover. And if you’re planning a trip of your own, I’d love to help you uncover your perfect London experience. Until next time—cheers!
