About Me

Culinary & Luxury Curator

I’m Stacy, the founder of a luxury culinary travel agency with a deep-rooted passion for travel and culture. Originally from Washington, DC, and now living in a vibrant melting pot of cultures, I’ve been part of the travel industry since 2017. However, my love for travel runs much deeper—it's been over 20 years in the making, inspired by three generations of travel agents in my family.

Travel, for me, is about more than just destinations; it’s about the stories, flavors, and traditions that bring people together. My fascination with different cultures, cuisines, religions, and ways of life began over heartfelt conversations around the dinner table. I believe that food isn’t just fuel—it’s a bridge that connects us, a window into a place’s history, and a way to form meaningful bonds with people.

Through my agency, I’ve designed immersive culinary tours and experiences that take you on a journey beyond the typical tourist trail. Whether you’re savoring street food in bustling markets or indulging in a fine dining experience, each moment is curated to give you a deeper appreciation of the world and its people. Personalization is at the heart of everything I do because no two travelers are the same. Every itinerary is thoughtfully crafted to reflect your unique tastes and desires.

Some of my favorite destinations are Thailand, with its vibrant flavors and rich culture, and Curacao, where colorful traditions and stunning landscapes captivate the soul. Wherever you dream of going, I’m here to help turn your travel aspirations into unforgettable, one-of-a-kind experiences. Let’s us help you explore the world, one bite at a time!

I’ve know Stacey for almost 20 years and this was our first time using her as a travel agent. I can say that she exceeded our expectations.She was always available to answer questions via text and phone calls which helped confirm that everything was going good. Me and my had a blast in Dubai and plan on going back to visit again soon. She’s already planning our next vacation to Greece in 2024. Thank you for all your help. -Darian H

Stacey has booked the past 3 trips for me. I took an international solo trip for the first time and she constantly checked on me due to my nervousness. She's always honest about making recommendations. I will continue to use her services and will always recommend her to anyone I know looking to travel. -Crystal B
