About Me

El Morro, Old San Juan
El Morro, Old San Juan

The word "boricua" is proudly used to describe someone from Puerto Rico or someone of Puerto Rican descent. With my mom being a native Puerto Rican, this is a word I've heard a lot throughout my life, and it's one I'm incredibly proud to get to use when describing myself!

I’ve visited Puerto Rico a number of times to see family, and each trip deepens my love for the island. From the colorful streets of Old San Juan to the breathtaking beaches of Culebra, Puerto Rico is full of unforgettable beauty. Add to that the warm, vibrant culture and delicious traditional dishes like mofongo and arroz con gandules, and it's easy to see why it's such a special place.

Whether you're planning your first visit or your fiftieth, I’m excited to help you make the most of your time on the island—and to share my love for my culture along the way!

Excellent Pre-Trip Advice
Reviewed By Nikki Beranak - Lakeville, MN | Traveled to Paris | France | Europe
Laurie and Nikki provided excellent advice on which tours to go on, which spots to see and gave me a chance to enjoy my trip far more than if I had to do the planning by myself. This was my first time using a travel agent...will 100% call them again. Worth every penny!
