Adventure & Philanthropy Traveling Specialist

Aruba Ariba!

Do you have a strong desire to explore new places, try different experiences, and embrace adventure? Do you often find yourself daydreaming of sipping a pina colada from a coconut on a tropical beach, or something more adventurous like looking over the edge of a 355-foot waterfall in Devils Pool Victoria Falls? Do you get overwhelmed with where to start when booking a trip or how to narrow down where you want to go? Do you find it confusing to know what documents and requirements are needed to go where? We have all been there and I am here to help! 

In the past several years I have had the amazing opportunity to solo and group travel to 15 different Countries. Check off 9 bucket list items like, Swimming with the pigs in the Bahamas, feeding the flamingos at Flamingo Beach in Aruba, Sky Diving in Saint Martin, looking over the edge of Devils Pool in Zambia, Swimming with wild dolphins in Zanzibar, Cage diving in Gansbaai Bay South Africa, taking the plunge on the Tarzan swing in Costa Rica, waterfall repealing and zip lining in several countries, swimming under a waterfall in La Fortuna and so much more!

My love of exploring and traveling has broadened my wealth of knowledge when it comes to traveling local here in the United States, the Caribbean, Central America and Africa and I can’t wait to pass that knowledge on to you and help you plan your next adventure! I specialize in relaxing trips on the beach, finding unique adventurous activities to do, cruises, solo trips, family trips, group trips, volunteer opportunities and even luxury trips all over the world. If you can dream it, I can plan it!

Do you live in the United States and have no Passport? Have no fear! Did you know that there are many cruises you can take from the US that don’t require a passport. There are tropical locations like the US Virgin Islands and Hawaii where no passport is needed. The United States has 63 beautiful national parks to discover. Amusement parks like Disney and Hershey Park for you the big kid at heart or your family. Famous Boardwalks like Ocean City Maryland and Santa Cruz California for the beach lovers, and the Caribbean like waters in Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore in Michigan.

I have visited 32 of the 50 States, 2 Territories, 13 National Parks, 2 National Lakeshores, 5 National Seashores. I have hiked trails like the Beehive in Acadia Maine, Inspiration Point in the Grand Tetons, Lake Haiyaha in the Rocky Mountains Colorado, and the 10-mile Chapel Loop Hike in Pictured rocks Michigan. I have taken road trips from Maine to Key West and everywhere in between.  I have been to bustling cities like New York City, Miami, Dallas, Houston, Washington DC, Baltimore, Boston, Las Vegas, Gatlinburg and Nashville. Let me help you book your next adventure whether that is visiting the beach, a major city, nature, hiking, or even a long weekend away in a cabin with a hot tub close to home traveling in your car!

Besides my family and traveling, I am very passionate about giving back to the community. Two years ago, I started doing research on how I could take my love of volunteering and expand it beyond my local community. That is when I came across Philanthropy Traveling. I have been able to volunteer my time on almost every international trip I have taken in the past year and a half. The beautiful thing I discovered is you can do as little as you want like taking old clothes with you to donate to the local communities or volunteer even just one hour of your time. Some of the amazing experiences I have had so far is working with Latin America Sea Turtle Conservation in Costa Rica, helping children in a local school in Zanzibar learn English, and giving out donated clothes, shoes and school supplies to remote villages in Zimbabwe. These experiences have given me the opportunity to really immerse myself into the culture and communities and I have made some long-lasting friendships along the way! I would love to help you find ways to make an impact when you are traveling!

If you are undecided where to go let’s have a chat. I will go through some questions with you to get an idea of your interests and use all my vast knowledge of places Internationally and Domestically that I have visited to help you decide on a place!  I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you and help you plan your next adventure! We all work so hard and deserve to have the perfect trip! So let me take the stress of planning your vacation off your shoulders and you just worry about packing your bags!
