My Story

I grew up in sunny Florida, where adventure was always just around the corner. One day, my dad came home and casually announced to my mom, “I want to learn how to sail, so I bought a boat!” I was nine when we first set sail to the Bahamas. From that point on, our summers were spent sailing around Florida and the Bahamian islands—my parents were both teachers, so we had the time to truly explore.

 

Later in life, I spent nine years in Massachusetts with my husband, followed by eleven incredible years in the San Francisco Bay Area. These days, I call beautiful Bend, Oregon home.

 

Professionally, I’ve built a career in Corporate Training—first as a Stand-Up Trainer, and later in Training Logistics. Now, I’m combining that background with my lifelong passion for travel—and I couldn’t be more excited!

​

I’ve had the joy of exploring countries like Thailand, Laos, Singapore, South Korea, Turkey, and many corners of Europe. One of our most unforgettable adventures was living in Normandy, France for six months as a family. Why? Simply—why not?

​

When COVID hit and schools went remote, we turned a challenge into an opportunity. We bought an RV and hit the road, turning homeschooling into a cross-country adventure. For three unforgettable months, we traveled from Oregon to Florida and back. It was the kind of journey my kids will remember forever.

​

My travel style? It’s a mix of everything—from off-the-grid RV trips and adventurous treks to luxury escapes and wine-and-food getaways. I love it all—and I believe there’s magic to be found in every kind of travel.
