About
A lifelong love of learning makes me want to drink from a firehose of new cultures and experiences. If you share this thirst, I'll help you satisfy it!
Travel style
As a traveler, I'm all about experiences. Life is too short to spend time in a hotel that's just OK. I'll help you find the absolute best destinations, properties and activities for the experience you want to have. From glassblowing in Venice to learning traditional dances in Colombia, from reef snorkeling in Hawai'i to hiking a glacier in Iceland, you'll find me out and about on any trip I take — but I still love a tranquil pool day now and then. Music, food and writing/literature are my passions, and I seek out special experiences in these areas.

Elizabeth's reviews
Elizabeth was great! Helpful and clear in communicating before and during the trip. When there were payment issues, she leaned right in to connect with the manager and the booking platform. She resolved the issues and I didn’t need to be involved. Priceless!!! A great service! Thank you!

I asked for her recommendation for a getaway for a birthday celebration. I was unaware of this property and a bit nervous but she assured me that it would be suitable and it exceeded my expectations. She took my preferences into account and found a property that was a perfect fit. She planned a romantic couples getaway combined with a family weekend. She recommended activities in the area. She sent me emails reminding me of events not to miss (cookies at check-in, happy hour times at arrival, bonfire in the evening and restaurant choices). There was frequent communication and she was available to help throughout the trip whenever needed.
