Whether you have an upcoming trip or your daydreaming of one, you are in the right place.

I'm obsessed with travel planning, and becoming a travel agent was a natural choice for me. I spend hours researching hidden gems, reading travel blogs, talking to full-time female travelers, planning trips, and daydreaming about future adventures.
