Five years ago, I embarked on a journey to turn my love for travel into a business that could enrich my retirement years. With no contacts in the travel industry and an endless desire to learn, I devoted myself to mastering the role of a travel agent.The first two years were both challenging and invaluable, filled with growth and learning. I met other travel agents who became not just colleagues but dear friends.

Today, my business operates under a guiding principle—Helping Friends Travel One Trip at a Time. I work exclusively with friends, family, and their referrals, ensuring that each trip I curate receives the personalized attention it deserves.What sets me apart is my fee-free approach and the time I invest in crafting your perfect journey. Unlike online travel agencies that offer a generic experience, I diligently research quality hotels, optimal flights, and safe locations to provide a customized, unforgettable travel experience for you.

The year 2023 has been my best yet, marked by a roster of repeat clients and new referrals who have now become good friends. My vision of success goes beyond bookings; I also advise clients on how to maximize their travel points for trips they book themselves. Some of the exciting trips for my friends have been Alaska, Mexico, Ireland and Switzerland!  

This ever-changing industry fuels my lifelong passion for learning.To everyone who has been a part of this incredible journey, thank you. Your trust and support have been the foundation of a business that fills me with pride and passion.---Let me know if there are any more adjustments you'd like to make.
