About Me

Chichén Itzá 2024
Chichén Itzá 2024

I spent fourteen years as a funeral director guiding families through life’s most tender moments, and I have now turned my detail-oriented spirit toward helping people make beautiful memories around the world.

As a travel agent, I blend empathy with a love for adventure, creating personalized journeys that celebrate life in all its richness.

Whether planning a peaceful retreat or an exhilarating escape, I try to bring warmth, wisdom, and a touch of joy to every itinerary.

Let me help you make your travel dreams a reality!

I love searching the world for exciting travel opportunities and would love to help you narrow down your options for the perfect trip for you!

I have traveled extensively in the United States - especially enjoying our National Park system.  I have been to Canada and Mexico often, as well as cruising the Caribbean and Mexico.  I have been blessed to travel to Europe multiple times and would love to share my expertise with you!

Trip of a lifetime
Reviewed By Alaska trip - Kansas City Mo | Traveled to Inside Passage | Alaska | USA
Amazing. Highly recommend Astra Hotel in Seattle. Modern, friendly staff, clean room, great location. Rooftop lounge with view of Space Needle. Excellent Food and service in both restaurants. Holland America cruise line. Everything was great except the food. Both in dining room and buffet setting. Lukewarm, bland, with a few exceptions. Hit and miss. Balcony room was spacious and clean. The only way to cruise Alaska, balcony room. Staff friendly and ship easy to navigate. Excursions were great, but time limit and didn’t get the chance to explore the villages. There is so much to see, we plan on going back and seeing what we missed. Silver king lodge in Ketchekan was absolute best for seafood feasts. Walk into Tongas Forest was incredibly beautiful. Boarding and disembarking easy process.

"Thanks for taking the time to share a review of your trip! I’m glad you enjoyed your overall experience. Astra Hotel sounds fantastic, with a view of the Space Needle! It’s great to know your Alaska cruise delivered on scenery, excursions, and service, and I appreciate your honest feedback about the food onboard Holland America. Your highlights, like the seafood feast at Silver King Lodge and the walk through Tongass National Forest, sound incredible. Thank you again for sharing your experience!"
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Galapagos Inner Loop on Celebrity
Reviewed By TI Fan - Mission Hills, KS | Traveled to Galapagos Islands | Ecuador | South America
From the time we landed in Quito to the time we left Quito for home, the Celebrity service was outstanding. On the ship the entire crew was friendly, knowledgable and responsive. The Galapagos Islands are one of earth's treasures. The variety of animals, the variety of landscapes and of plants are amazing. The various excursions provided variety for individuals of differing interests and capacities. I can strongly recommend this trip.
Alena Haskins responded

Patient, Understanding and FANTASTIC
Reviewed By BillanDeb - Kansas City Missouri | Traveled to Alaska | USA
Alena counseled a couple who had no idea what they were doing but wanted to go somewhere. She shared with them ideas and didn't get frustrated when they continued to be a challenge but get delivering. Her nickname should be "Alena delivers the goods" as she sure did!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Once in a lifetime 3 generations trip.
Reviewed By Barbie - Kansas City, KS | Traveled to London | England | Europe
From start to finish this trip was one I looked forward to for years. The specific details (which cruise, which excursions, extra stops after the cruise) were all adjusted & fine tuned before & even during our trip. The needs, wants & interests of all on the trip were all taken into consideration. From 6 year old to 74 year old, the trip was a joy. I am reminded every day of some part of our trip. The destination list is not actual trip friendly. We went to Iceland, Norway, Amsterdam, Bruge, London & Paris.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
