About Me

CIE and Viking River and Ocean Specialist

After retiring from education, I became a travel advisor driven by the belief that "To Travel Is To Live," as Hans Christian Andersen said. My passion is helping people see the world and I welcome clients who share that desire. My travel experience is diverse; it spans escorted tours to cruises around the globe with various suppliers. I frequently book trips with CIE, Collette, Globus, and cruise lines like Viking Ocean, Avalon, AmaWaterways, Uniworld, and Scenic. Ireland remains my favorite country to visit, not just for its sights but its people as well. What sets me apart is my focus on delivering the best value for my clients, paired with an educational approach to help them fully engage with their chosen destinations.
