About Me

Paris fun with friends!
Paris fun with friends!

Travel is an integral part of my life.  My mother was a Flight Attendant with United Airlines for over 40 years and I was fortunate enough that she started showing me the world from a young age. This sparked my interest and passion for traveling to new and exciting destinations. It also opened my eyes to broader experiences beyond my small New England town. Early world travel allowed me to wholeheartedly embrace opportunities such as living abroad and a global business career in advertising and marketing.

I officially started my travel advisor business in 2022, but have a wealth of trip planning experience and knowledge from decades of personal travel and advising. Since I have traveled my whole life – as a young child, a teen, a college student, a 20s single, a young married couple, a family with infants and young children, a family with teens, a large extended family group – I have a deep understanding of travel expectations and practical experiences for trips at all life stages. Having lived in Munich, Germany for 3 years in my late 20s, my husband and I traveled extensively in Europe. It was fulfilling to act as an experienced tour guide and trip planner for so many of our visitors who were eager to be a part of our exciting adventures.

Through world travel, I have a robust appreciation for so many interesting cultures, historical sights, breathtaking landscapes, bustling cities, nature and animals beyond where I live. Approaching our empty nest years, not only am I looking forward to continuing to broaden my horizons while creating incredible memories, I am excited to take my love of travel to the next level by establishing my own travel agency, CTM: Create Travel Memories. Whether you want to relax on a beach, immerse yourself in a new culture, hike or ski in the mountains, try an exhilarating new activity, or just give your family a great Disney experience, I can’t wait to work with you to plan great trips!

From a moderate budget to a luxury experience, we can "Create Travel Memories" that will fulfill your getaway needs. Whether with my host agencies preferred partners or your own, I can curate options from all sources. So whether you are a wanderlust or a reluctant traveler there is something for you! I am so grateful my mother’s wanderlust career inspired me to see the world and am honored in her memory to pass that on to others. One of my bucket list items is to visit all 7 continents (and I have one left)! What is on your bucket list?! Let me help you get there! 

Specializing in Independent Europe Vacations

Whether it is the big 3 -- London, Paris, Rome -- or all the wonderful off the beaten path gems Europe has to offer, I have extensive experience traveling in and planning Europe vacations.

Majestically Unforgettable
Reviewed By Sheila - Fairfield. CT | Traveled to Yellowstone National Park | Wyoming | USA
We recently returned from an unforgettable trip to the Grand Tetons, and Yellowstone, and I cannot thank Cristin enough for crafting such a flawless experience. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and the entire trip went off without a hitch—from the stunning accommodations to the scenic routes and must-see attractions. This was our second trip we booked with Cristin, with a third in the works! She out did herself! One of best trips we’ve ever taken. The logistics were seamless, the accommodations top-notch, and the scenery…beyond words. Huge thanks to Cristin for making this experience not only smooth and stress-free, but absolutely magical.

Our Amazing Trip to Denmark and Sweden
Reviewed By Sue - Southington | Traveled to Denmark | Europe
Cristin helped us plan an amazing trip to Denmark and Sweden. She listened to our wants and desires and took into account our budget for the entire trip. The hotels she selected for us met all of our requirements and were centrally located in the different cities we visited. She is extremely organized, responded to my questions in a timely manner and put together a well organized itinerary before we left on our trip. She even reached out to me a few days before we traveled to see if we needed anything else from her. I would highly recommend her as your next travel agent. I would certainly use her services again.
Cristin Wallace responded

Amazing Iceland!
Reviewed By Alexis - New Canaan, CT | Traveled to Iceland | Europe
Cristin provided us with invaluable advice on traveling to Iceland and a great independent itinerary. We took our family of five (3 young adult/teen) children to Reykjavík, the South Coast and the Snaefellsnes peninsula in August. Cristin determined this route with accommodations that were a great fit for a family of 5 with varying interests and travel stamina. Using CTM's detailed itinerary planning services is a must! It included bookings of several guided activities in advance, as well as estimated travel times, and suggested additional adventures depending on how energetic or adventurous we were feeling. Cristin takes great interest in understanding each family member's likes and preferences ahead of time to develop an appropriate itinerary. She is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with! This is the second trip she has planned for us and I will most definitely be returning to CTM for future family and couples trips.

Unforgettable Trip
Reviewed By Matthew - New York, NY | Traveled to Europe
Cristin was integral in helping me and my friends set up an intricate Europe trip that included 5 different countries and 10+ different cities. As people that haven’t done a trip of this magnitude and don’t really have the time to plan, Cristin was able to help us with hotels, travel, what to see, and the best things to do in each place.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
