About

Chasing whimsy around the globe and constantly curating new adventures. 26 countries and counting! Passionate about art, culture, good food and glaciers.


Travel style

Lazy days at luxury hotels have their place, but I prefer being out and about, seeking experiences I can't find at home. I love urban adventuring because you just can't beat the food, art, history and culture that the world's great cities offer. I put a lot of effort into hunting down hidden gems and meeting locals during my travels. Trying the local cuisine and sharing a drink with a stranger is a must. I greatly appreciate nature too, and when I need to disconnect, you'll likely find me hiking on a glacier or paddleboarding on a lake.

I'm a huge advocate for exploring our National Parks! My personal trips have varied greatly in budget, sometimes blending stays in hostels with 5-star resorts on the same journey. Itineraries are great, but I like to leave some space for whimsy and spontaneity when inspiration strikes.

Daniel's reviews

Daniel went over and above to ensure we’d have the smoothest stay possible. From booking to handling our accidental travel delay with later than expected arrival, he handled it all so all we needed to do was enjoy our hotel. It’s hard to find a hotel that suits our family’s size and he made an excellent recommendation. He did a great job considering our kids’ needs too in making that recommendation. I have no doubt I will book my family’s future travel with Daniel!

Daniel gave us exactly what we wanted from his services. Options for location, hotel, and a personalized itinerary. All within our budget! Once on the trip, we woke up each day and selected what we wanted to do from the list he sent us. It was the least stressful vacation I’ve ever had.
