As a well-traveled child, my normal looked like bingo games on planes, making friends with flight crews, and growing up certain I’d become a flight attendant.

When studying abroad in Switzerland, I took a few side trips that required lots of logistics and a pre-smartphone, and I relished the adrenaline-inducing challenge of getting around on my own.

My perspective was constantly stretching. I was awed by Southeast Asia, inspired by Cuba, and so in love with Mexico that I sublet my room in NYC to move to Tulum after just one visit.

Travel expanded my world, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I was hooked.

My drive to visit, learn about, and embrace new-to-me places has never changed, but the way I want to experience travel has.

Somewhere on the path to adulthood, I craved more comfortable accommodations. I grew tired of overcrowded attractions and overstuffed itineraries. I became more focused on feeling rested enough to enjoy the journey instead of being bogged down by pressure to “do it for the gram.”

I became interested in how tourism affects local communities and economies. I learned about the environmental impact of global travel. I discovered that my purest joy comes from sharing those insights with fellow travelers and designing custom, conscious trips to the countries I love most.
