Originally from Connecticut, I caught the travel bug when I took my first overseas trip to France in 2007. Since then, travel has become my passion.I consider travel to be one of the great romances of my life.
I have travelled to over 20 different countries and 26 U.S. states and territories. I have also been to Disney World three times, once as a toddler, once as a teenager, and once as an adult couple. I have experience traveling as a couple, as a family of three, and as a solo traveler. Each experience has been unique in its own special way! I consider myself a somewhat adventurous, independent traveler, but also value the comforts that a more low-key kind of vacation an all-inclusive type of experience can provide…. Especially when traveling as a couple or family! Ask me about my epic wedding and honeymoon in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland!
Travel planning for me and my family has become my favorite hobby! I have put together detailed itineraries for every trip I have ever taken, and even written a couple of “menu guidebooks” on places like Savannah, Charleston, and Montreal where I have traveled multiple times.
In addition, I have worked as a tour guide and an Uber driver in the DC Metro area and have a wealth of knowledge about the history and offerings of that area as well. I have a healthy social media following of friends, colleagues, and acquaintances, many of whom ask me, “How do you do it?” I am happy to share his tips, tricks, and hacks, and am excited to expand my travel planning hobby into a career.
