Wellness is trending, but not just the green juice kind. These days, it’s about experiences that meet you where you are.

That could mean a week of mountain hikes and sound baths, rooftop spa days with skyline views, or science-backed retreats that serve miso soup after your IV infusion.

The best part? It’s not one-size-fits-all. Your reset might lean spa and slow mornings, or it might look like culinary therapy and ocean swims. However you define wellness, I’ll help you build the version that feels right.

Your wellness style is as unique as your travel style. I’ll help you connect the dots.

Some destinations come with bragging rights—and a UNESCO badge.

It’s one thing to see the Pyramids or the Terracotta Army in a textbook, another to walk alongside them with a private historian. UNESCO World Heritage Sites aren’t just well-preserved, they’re alive with stories, textures, and traditions passed down over centuries.

I’ll connect you to expert-led tours, boutique hotels that echo the local culture, and once-in-a-lifetime moments.

Let’s make the past feel present. Your story starts now.

There’s something effortlessly cool about staying in a castle that’s hosted royalty and rockstars.

Gstaad Palace brings timeless glamour without feeling stuck in the past. Open December through March and again from June to September, it shines in winter with ski-in mornings, après-ski fondue by the fire, and candlelit dinners in wood-beamed lounges.

Come summer, trade snow for sun-drenched hikes, garden lunches, and poolside lounging with sweeping valley views. Different seasons, same legendary experience.

This Swiss landmark sits in the heart of the Bernese Oberland, and I’ll make sure you experience it right: ski passes, e-bikes, panoramic suites, and a few off-menu surprises I love to share.

Is your next trip shouting “group celebration”?

Countryside villas in Italy? Private yachts in the Med? I plan trips that bring your people together, seamlessly and stylishly.

Family reunion, milestone birthday, corporate escape - no matter the reason, your itinerary will hit the right balance of shared fun and personal space.

Gather your crew and leave the logistics to me. Your group trip, handled start to finish.

Ever wondered what it feels like to stay in what The World’s 50 Best Hotels calls “a love story”? Passalacqua took the top spot in 2023, and honestly, it’s easy to see why.

This isn’t your typical Lake Como villa. Passalacqua is an 18th-century estate reimagined for modern-day indulgence, with just 24 suites layered in antiques, original frescoes, and soul. One suite used to be a music room. Another has a chandelier worthy of an opera house.

Insider tip? Don’t miss an early morning stroll through the rose garden before the estate fully wakes up, and save time for a private gelato-making session with the chef (it’s as fun as it sounds).

Your Lake Como dream is just one message away. Reach out today!

Ocean breeze, latte in hand, and the first tee overlooking waves: this is how mornings start at The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay.

Set above one of California’s most dramatic coastlines, this resort has two championship golf courses (one links-style, one parkland-style), both hugging the cliffs above the Pacific. Even non-golfers love tagging along in the cart just for the views.

Want to unwind another way? The spa delivers with sea-inspired rituals, steam rooms, and seasonal treatments (yes, the pumpkin enzyme wrap is as good as it sounds). Add in e-bikes for coastal cruising, nearby wine tastings, and fire pits that glow at sunset—just in time for the bagpipers on the bluff, a Ritz-Carlton signature.

Reach out to me to plan your seaside escape.

It starts with a spark. Maybe a destination you’ve been daydreaming about, or just a feeling you want to chase.

I'm here to take that spark and shape it into something real. I take your ideas (even the half-formed ones) and turn them into something extraordinary, with every detail handled behind the scenes.
• Private transfers and fast-track perks? Covered.
• Chef’s table dinners, local makers, and guides who feel like old friends? Done.
• Support before, during, and after your trip? Always.

This is travel without the guesswork. Let’s build something unforgettable; I'm ready whenever you are!

When you arrive at Chablé Maroma, the biggest stress of the day might just be deciding between your private plunge pool or the beach hammock. (Tough life, right?)

Set along Mexico’s Riviera Maya just north of Playa del Carmen, this retreat has 70 private villas (each with its own pool) and a spa that’s worth the trip on its own. If you haven’t heard of the 3-hour Ya’axche Forest Awakening, let me just say: steam, stretch, exfoliate, champagne. In that order.

Add in chef-driven beachfront dining, mezcal under the palms, and easy-access snorkeling, and you’re officially in wellness heaven.

Your reset starts here! Let's start planning!

Clients always ask me: What’s the best place to land before Machu Picchu? This is it.

Set just a block from Cusco’s Plaza de Armas, Monasterio isn’t just a charming place to crash, it’s where your journey should begin. It features original 16th-century architecture, peaceful cloisters, and oxygen-enriched rooms (yes, really) to help you adjust to the altitude.

Insider Tip: The bar team at El Tupay makes a next-level Pisco Sour with a touch of local Andean bitters. Ask for it with the hotel’s signature twist.

Skip the straight-to-Machu-Picchu routine and give yourself time to acclimate and explore. Cusco deserves more than a pass-through.
