My Story

New Jersey-based traveler with a serious passion for planning the perfect getaway. I live with my husband and our cute pup, Waffles — but I’m the one obsessing over the itineraries, hidden gems and charming little towns. When I’m not dreaming of my next trip, I’m probably deep into F1 highlights or plotting how to catch a race abroad. Adventure, aesthetic and adrenaline — always on the list!

My Travel Style

I’m all about the thoughtful details that turn a trip into an unforgettable experience. Whether it’s uncovering the best restaurants in a tucked-away town, finding that perfect boutique stay or mapping out the smoothest route to soak in the best views — my travel style is equal parts charm, ease and inspiration. I’m especially drawn to food and drink adventures, from wine tours to cooking classes, because I believe the best way to experience a place is through its flavors. If you love beautiful places, well-researched plans and a little dash of spontaneity (plus maybe an F1 race in the mix!), I’m your person.

Alisa was an exceptional travel agent and an absolute joy to work with throughout our honeymoon planning. She thoughtfully crafted an itinerary that delivered an incredible range of experiences across 10 days in Italy—seamlessly blending historic landmarks, vibrant cities, and charming, quieter villages in a way that felt perfectly balanced.

From start to finish, Alisa was highly communicative, deeply attentive to our preferences, and impressively knowledgeable about Italy. Her recommendations were incredibly detailed, making it clear she knows the country inside and out—right down to practical nuances like parking logistics and seasonal humidity. Whenever we introduced a new idea or requested a change, she effortlessly reworked the itinerary while preserving the overall flow and vision of the trip. The hotels she selected were all outstanding, offering excellent quality and value within our budget.

We felt fully supported and confident every step of the way, and the result was a honeymoon that truly exceeded our expectations. We cannot recommend Alisa highly enough to anyone looking for a thoughtful, flexible, and genuinely expert travel planner.

Booking through Alisa truly elevated our entire experience. She secured us a beautiful room upgrade, complimentary breakfast, and so much more. My wife and I spent two days here right after our wedding, and Alisa went above and beyond—working with the hotel to arrange thoughtful surprises like champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries, and an incredible assortment of fine chocolates waiting in our room.

Thanks to her coordination, the entire hotel staff knew about our recent marriage, and we were consistently treated with warmth, care, and extra special touches. We didn’t have to lift a finger—every detail was planned and handled seamlessly by Alisa, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy.

Alisa’s attention to detail, personal connections, and genuine care transformed what could have been just a stay into a truly unforgettable celebration. I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking to make their travels stress-free and extraordinary.

Alisa provided us with wonderful suggestions for our stay. Whether it was hotel, sightseeing, or restaurants, she truly covered all of the bases. The clickable pdf itinerary she provided was thoughtfully laid out and was used daily by us on our stay. No detail was missed. She covered transportation options, as well as, important country specific taxi recommendations. We truly felt like seasoned travelers during our vacation. We relaxed and enjoyed ourselves because of all of the work Alisa put in to our vacation. We will continue to use Alisa for all of our travel from now on! She was AMAZING!!!!!
