Hi, I’m Alissa, your go-to family travel advisor for memorable vacations across Asia. I help busy parents trade research overload and planning stress for curated, seamless experiences that bring joy, connection, and memories that will turn into family stories.

As a Korean American who grew up in Chicago and has lived in South Korea for over four years, Asia is not just where I send my clients—it’s home. I’ve spent decades traveling extensively throughout Asia with my own family, including my two little ones, which means I know first-hand what it takes to balance cultural immersion with kid-friendly ease. From stroller-friendly temples in Kyoto to toddler-approved beach resorts in Thailand to hidden-gem cafés in Vietnam, I specialize in trips that blend cultural discovery with comfort and practicality.

Before becoming a travel advisor, I was a Spanish Immersion teache so education and cultural connection are at the heart of every itinerary I design. I’m also trilingual, which helps me connect with local guides, uncover authentic experiences, and anticipate details that most travelers (and advisors) might miss. My background as a teacher, mom, and expat gives me a unique perspective on how to make travel both enriching and effortless for families of all ages.

My clients love that I don’t just “book trips” - I offer a full concierge-level care. That means handling every detail from flights, hotels, and transfers to private guides, curated excursions, and on-trip support through apps like WhatsApp and Tern. You simply pack your bags and show up; I’ve already made sure your journey is seamless.

Some of my favorite destinations to design (and visit myself) include: Thailand – with its golden temples, buzzing tuk-tuks, and family-friendly beaches. Vietnam – where lantern-lit streets meet stunning coastal escapes. Japan – a perfect balance of ancient tradition and modern magic. South Korea – my second home, where culture, food, and innovation blend seamlessly. Singapore & the Philippines – tropical, vibrant, and surprisingly kid-friendly.

Whether you’re dreaming of a stress-free beach escape, a cultural journey that connects your kids to the world, or a multi-generational trip that feels effortless for everyone, I’m here to design it all. My goal is simple: to save you time, eliminate decision fatigue, and create a trip that feels like it was tailor-made for your family.

I believe that family travel isn’t just about getting away—it’s about writing your family’s story through the places you discover together. And I’d love to help you write your next chapter.
