About

A foodie, yogi, and flower enthusiast based in Barcelona! I explore the world one bite at a time, seeking out new flavors and culinary experiences wherever my travels take me.

Travel style

I'm all about discovering authentic street food and gastronomic delights. I have a passion for stunning views and chasing epic sunsets and you'll always find me where the locals live. I'm constantly seeking out new experiences and activities, but I also value comfort – give me a great bathroom and a cozy king-sized bed and I'm in my element!

Cathy's reviews

Cathy was excellent to work with while we planned our New York trip! She wanted to know our plans, our preferences, and the event we were marking with the trip. She got us a room upgrade, she told the hotel it was my birthday, and we had just an awesome experience from start to finish!
