Some of the benefits of using a Travel Planner:

💰💰 It does not cost you more to use a Travel Planner. I am working for you, but my services are paid by the destination vendor when you book with me. They know I am taking care of you and planning your unique vacation and that benefits them.

🏰🚢⛱ I will use my KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE about travel destinations to help make your vacation as seamless and stress-free as possible.

⏰🙂 My goal is to save you TIME, EASE STRESS, and make planning a vacation SIMPLE. I will do the research for you, check for deals, handle the details, and be your one point of contact instead of you spending time on hold with a call center.

‍💁‍♀️💻❤️ When you book with me, you are SUPPORTING MY SMALL BUSINESS.

✨ REACH OUT and let's start planning your next vacation! ✨

It makes me happy when I open an email from a recent client with such positive feedback!

“We have never come back from a trip so relaxed!”

“You were able to take our criteria and find us stays in multiple locations allowing us a variety of choices. You made the planning process seamless and were always available for questions we had. We would definitely recommend your services to others!”

Thank you Michelle and Luke! I love that you enjoyed your vacation, being able to snorkel many times, and that your beach view was fabulous!

Travel Tip Tuesday: Double Check Your Passport Expiration Dates! 🌎

Look now to avoid last-minute stress! Remember, many destinations require that your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your travel dates. Check your expiration date now so you have plenty of time to renew if needed.

I just returned from another magical trip to Walt Disney World. ✨

Someone asked me if I continue to go back to Disney parks because the rides are that great. Well, yes, some are, but for me, visiting Disney parks is more than a destination- it’s the experience.

Each time I go back, I do many of the rides I enjoy, but I also make a point to experience something new or something I haven’t done in a while.

New experiences this trip included the Princess 5K, enjoying Festival of the Arts at Epcot, crafting a castle mosaic, and tasting delicious drinks at Sangria University.

I also found time for some of my favorites like Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain, riding the Monorail and Skyliner, resort hopping, and seeing Fantasmic again for the first time in many years! And I couldn’t miss out on eating some cheeseburger spring rolls and corn dog nuggets!!! But most of all, I was on vacation with some of my favorite people!

I’m already looking forward to my next trip and that feeling walking down Main Street and seeing Cinderella’s Castle!
