🌍 Big News + A Special International Women’s Day Celebration! 🌍

Today, we’re celebrating women in travel, friendship, and new beginnings—and we have something exciting to share!

✨ First, a reintroduction! I’m Nora Sommerkamp, Founder & CEO of Travelkunst. I grew up in Germany’s Black Forest, fell in love with travel early on, and spent 15 years working in luxury hospitality, including being part of the opening team at The Jefferson, Washington, DC. Some of my most unforgettable travel moments? Exploring Iceland’s dramatic landscapes, meeting an Alpaca at Machu Picchu and witnessing the Big 5 in Tanzania—experiences that remind me why travel is so powerful.

✨ And now, we’re thrilled to welcome Shelley Kissel as an Independent Travel Advisor at Travelkunst! Shelley and I met while working at The Jefferson and quickly bonded over travel, food, and finding those unforgettable experiences. With a background in cultural anthropology and culinary arts, Shelley has spent years traveling the world—from watching the sunset over Dubrovnik’s islands to walking among fearless wildlife in the Galápagos. Now, she’s bringing her passion for meaningful, immersive travel to our clients!

💫 Two friends, one shared love for travel, and endless adventures ahead.

Join us in welcoming Shelley to the team and celebrating all the women who inspire us to explore the world! 🌏💙
