Profile details
About
Type-A planner whose appetite for travel is only rivaled by her love for her golden retriever, Kimchi. When not scoping out new restaurants, you can find this tech lover brainstorming new startup ideas over espresso martinis. A globetrotting, oenophile ball of positive energy who lives life to the fullest, one leopard print outfit at a time.
Travel style
A budget baller with champagne dreams, I'm a California native who has called Europe home for the past three years, exploring over 28 countries along the way. You will find me seeking out hole-in-the-wall eateries where the locals eat, as well as finding an aesthetically pleasing hotel with a lively lobby bar for impromptu nightcaps in a great location. The food and hotel make the experience for me. Ideal travel day includes a mid-day nap after morning sight-seeing, feeling cozy, eating memorable food and getting great pictures for the 'gram! I take it very seriously that you only get a few meals on a trip, so don't waste 'em on subpar grub!

Booking with Alyssa was a breeze! The staff at L'Oscar knew what we were visiting for on check-in, and bonded with us over the event we were attending. Also, entering the room to wonderful chocolate strawberries and snacks was such a wonderful treat.
