So…how do we get started?
Easy! Send me a text, email, or give me a call.
We’ll chat about where you want to go, who’s traveling, your budget, and what your dream vacation looks like. Then I’ll get to work creating options that actually fit you—not just whatever pops up first on a booking website.
Your only job? Start counting down the days.
Why should I use a travel advisor when I can book online?
Because Google doesn’t know your family.
It doesn’t know your teenager refuses to share a bed, your spouse wants a balcony, your child has food allergies, or that you’re celebrating your anniversary.
I do.
I take the time to match you with the right vacation—not just the cheapest one—and I’m here before, during, and after you travel.
When things go smoothly, fantastic.
When they don’t? You call me—not an 800 number while sitting in an airport wondering why your flight disappeared.
Do your services cost extra?
For most vacations…nope!
My planning services are complimentary because I earn a commission from my travel partners after you travel.
That means you get personalized planning, expert advice, promotion monitoring, and someone in your corner—without paying extra for my services on most bookings.
What if I find a cheaper price online?
Great question!
Sometimes the internet throws out prices that look amazing…until you realize they don’t include taxes, resort fees, transfers, baggage, or they’re for a completely different room category.
I’ll always be honest with you about pricing and help you compare apples to apples so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Value beats “cheap” every single time.
What happens if I need to cancel or change my trip?
Life has a funny way of changing plans.
Every vacation has different cancellation and change policies, and I’ll explain those before you book so there are no surprises later.
If something unexpected happens, I’ll help guide you through your options and work with the travel suppliers on your behalf.
This is also why I strongly recommend travel protection.
Because none of us can predict life…or airline schedules.
What travel documents will I need?
That depends on where you’re headed.
Traveling within the U.S.?
You’ll typically need a valid government-issued ID that meets current TSA requirements.
Traveling internationally?
You’ll need a valid passport, and depending on your destination, possibly visas, health documentation, or other entry requirements.
Don’t worry; I keep an eye on all of that so you know what you’ll need well before departure.
Can you help with flights?
Absolutely.
I can help you find flight options that make sense not just the cheapest fare with three connections and an overnight layover in who-knows-where.
Sometimes paying a little more saves you hours of travel headaches.
We’ll find the balance between value, convenience, and budget.
Can you help me pack?
You bet.
Packing doesn’t have to be a last-minute game of “Do I really need five pairs of shoes?”
I’ll help with packing suggestions, weather expectations, destination-specific tips, and those little things you don’t think about until you’re already there.
How involved are you in planning?
As involved as you’d like me to be.
Need someone to simply book your vacation?
Done.
Want restaurant recommendations, hidden gems, transportation advice, packing tips, and an itinerary?
I’m your person.
Think of me as your travel advisor…and your vacation’s project manager.
What about money while I’m traveling?
I’ll let you know everything you need before you leave, including:
• Whether you’ll need local currency
• If credit cards are widely accepted
• Tipping customs
• Exchange rate tips
• Money-saving advice specific to your destination
No guesswork required.
What apps should I download?
That depends on where you’re going, but my usual recommendations include:
• Your airline’s app
• Google Maps
• Google Translate
• XE Currency
• WhatsApp (especially for international travel)
• Destination-specific apps for transportation, attractions, or cruise lines
I’ll let you know exactly which ones are worth downloading before you leave.
Do you only book Disney vacations?
Not even close!
While Disney will always have a special place in my heart, I also plan:
• Ocean & River Cruises
• All-Inclusive Resorts
• Europe
• Alaska
• Hawaii
• National Parks
• Family Vacations
• Couples Getaways
• Honeymoons
• Group Travel
• Bucket List Adventures
If it’s on your travel wish list, let’s talk.
What makes you different?
I don’t just book vacations.
I build experiences.
I ask questions you may not have thought about. I look for the little details that make a vacation smoother. I monitor promotions when possible, advocate for you if something goes sideways, and genuinely want you to come home saying,
“That was exactly what we hoped for.”
Because the best vacations don’t happen by accident—they happen with thoughtful planning.
Ready to start planning?
Whether you’re ready to book tomorrow or you’re just in the “wouldn’t it be nice…” stage, I’d love to chat.
No pressure. No obligation. Just honest advice, personalized planning, and someone who’s just as excited about your vacation as you are.
Let’s make your next adventure one worth talking about.
