About Me

Ocean/River Cruise and Solo Travel Specialist

Greetings!

I have been traveling extensively for the last decade and a half, the majority of my travel solo, for both work and pleasure. With 1.3 million+ miles flown, 1,400+ nights in hotels and 330+ nights on cruises across six continents, my knowledge of worldwide travel is vast.

My travel experiences have had me criss-crossing the globe. From 5-star luxury hotels such as the Waldorf Astoria Berlin and the Conrad Hong Kong to a pod hotel in Mexico City airport, I’ve vast familiarity with hotels and tours around the globe.

I’ve also cruised extensively, having countless trips in the Caribbean and Mexican Riviera, to Alaska, to transatlantic and transpacific crossings. By the end of 2023, I will have circumnavigated the globe by cruise ship. I’ve also sailed the rivers of the Netherlands, Germany, France and Switzerland.

Along with personal experience, I am a certified cruise counsellor with the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) and hold certifications with all major cruise lines as well as Marriott International, Disney Theme Parks and Resorts and Universal Theme Parks and Resorts.

I look forward to a partnership with you to craft the ideal vacation, specifically tailored to you!
