“Celebrating the Spirit of Travel & Creating Memories to Last a Lifetime”
As a young girl, living on the island of Crete in Iraklion, Greece, spending countless hours swimming in the beautiful cerulean blue sea called The Mediterranean (before there was even a cruise port there!), I would soak the mystical rays of sunshine in those early days, not yet knowing that my purpose in business one day would be “Making Dream Vacations Come True.”
Specializing in luxury and ensuring the perfect itinerary, the goal for my clients is to experience a “Delightful Travel.” Key ingredients I contribute to this success: Research, Preparation, Planning and Attention to the Details. My journey selling travel began in South Florida, where I’ve spent 20+ years, attended Northeast High School in Fort Lauderdale and obtained a Bachelor of Business Administration (Marketing) from the University of Miami.
While living in Southern Colorado, I managed short term rental properties in Cuchara and in Stonewall. Owned and operated Plum Canyon Nursery, where I spent time living off of the grid on a farm property taking care of a mule, a horse, 5 cats, 10 chickens, 7 Big dogs: a Great Pyrenees, a Lab/Shar Pei, and 5 German Shepherds. Raised and rehomed two litters of German Shepherds and a litter of Great Pyrennes/Anatolian Shepherd mix.

Travel Adventures
Some of my most precious memories are from California, particularly in the Bay Area of San Francisco where my son was born. Visits to Yosemite and drives to see Sequoia Trees are special gems that I treasure deeply. Utah is one of my favorite destinations in America, especially the majesty of Zion National Park. Visiting family in Fairbanks, Alaska during the wintertime and witnessing the Northern Lights is an awestruck wonder to experience in one’s lifetime. One of my Destination Specialties happens to be Alaska Cruises & Land Tours. And, it’s very special that my husband grew up in Anchorage.
Traveling becomes about “Remembering” and the “I Remember whens…” Travel is also Food for the Soul, trusting the mystery of entering the unknown. Then discovering after the journey, that travel was An Awakening for the Soul.
“Sea the World!”
Memorable travel experiences include the Philippines, Greece, Germany, Japan, The Basque Country, France, Belguim, England, Scotland, Italy, Spain, Ireland, New Foundland, Alaska and America from Coast to Coast.
