Day 1 at the St. Regis Costa Mujeres, and I’m already a little in love.

Twenty minutes north of Cancún, where the crowds thin and the water does that thing. A private beach, a butler who already knows how I take my coffee, and the quiet confidence this brand is built on.

I’m here to see it for you. So when it’s time to design your celebration, I’ll know exactly where to begin.

More to come!

I’m on the road for the next week with back to back trips to Mexico and then family time in Napa Valley.

I’m going to experience first hand the newly opened St. Regis Costa Mujeres, just north of Cancun. It just opened 3 months ago.

Then I will be off to spend time with family in Napa Valley and explore the bounty of California’s finest w**e country.

Follow along and send me your questions about any of these destinations!

HAPPY FRIDAY!
it’s been a busy week of monitoring client trips ans finalizing plans for the rest of my 2026 travelers.

A new client of mine who is used to booking things himself said that he loves knowing that I am on his team is the real luxury. Who am I to disagree? 😄

When you are ready for me to be part of your travel planning team, I’m just a message away!

Nothing is wrong. I promise. I’m just over here with my notebook, designing a December journey from the misty rice terraces of northern Vietnam to a private villa on the turquoise waters of El Nido. And thinking about the next story I get to help write. So when your next adventure starts calling, think of me. I’ll already be taking notes.

My honest travel philosophy: if the meals weren’t memorable, did the journey even happen? From the hotel breakfasts to the yia-yias cooking like they’ve known you for years. So when I design a celebration trip for my clients, the food is never an afterthought. No good celebration in history ever skipped the food.

And a very full-hearted thank you to , my in-country partner and host in Greece for every incredible meal, every introduction, and for keeping me impressively well fed from Athens to Crete. 😄

What’s the one meal from your travels you still dream about?

It’s 91 degrees in Seattle today, and in a few months, we’ll be clamoring for warm weather to be back.

Now is the perfect time to book that winter escape, before the best rooms, the best rates, and the best flights disappear. Mexico and the Caribbean make it easy, tiki drink in hand, sun dropping over the water, everything you’ll be craving in January, waiting for you now.

Send me a message, and let’s find your version of warm.

Full Disclosure: This could happen to you when you work with me as your travel advisor. 🤣

But sometimes a getaway from the norm and explore new places is exactly what we need to (re)discover ourselves. Don’t you agree?

Don’t skip those therapy sessions though. 😄

Happy Monday! ♥️

Who can relate? 🤣

The most expensive hotel or the priciest restaurant is not always the best.

I have stayed at properties that cost a small fortune and left me wanting more, and I have found quiet, unassuming spots that felt like magic from the moment I walked in. What you pay and what you receive do not always align, and the traveler who understands that distinction travels smarter for it.

These scenes are from my stay at the JW Marriott in Crete , where every dollar spent felt earned.

Knowing where to splurge and where to hold back is exactly the kind of judgment call I help my clients make. It is not about spending more; it’s about spending well. I see your trip as an investment.

Sometimes the splurge delivers. Sometimes it does not. Knowing the difference is its own kind of luxury.

“Have you heard this word budgét? I think it’s the opposite of boujee.” 😂

Here’s the version of that word that comes up in my world. A lead says “no budget” and means it as a compliment, like it opens every door, but it can actually close one.

Think of it this way. You wouldn’t ask a contractor to build your dream home and refuse to tell them what you want to spend. They’d be designing in the dark, guessing at every material and finish, hoping it lands somewhere close to what you imagined.

Travel design works the same way. A number isn’t a limit. It’s a language. It tells me whether we’re designing around a private villa in Santorini or a boutique suite. It directs whether to look for a private sailing on a catamran or a shared one with a small group. And they can still be extraordinary. They’re just different stories.

So if you’re working with an advisor and they ask about budget, know that it isn’t small talk. It’s the first sentence of your story, and we can’t write the rest without it.

To Lake Wanaka in New Zealand to be exact. 😆

November is a good time to go when it is their spring time. The lupines will be in bloom, the weather is pleasant and the crowds are not quite there yet.

If New Zealand has always been your dream destination, let’s have a conversation. It’s more accessible than you think ☺️
