Joanne Jastatt

From my first post-high school adventure across Europe (armed with only French fries, white bread and a trusty tube of Colman's mustard) to my latest global explorations, I've spent decades mastering the art of meaningful travel. My journey includes sleeping in group rooms at San Francisco's Tenderloin YMCA while dining at the city's finest restaurants, falling in love with Vancouver Island's wild beauty and hitchhiking through Costa Rica's lush landscapes — all before graduating from college. They call me a "travel contradiction" — someone who savors a Michelin-starred meal one evening and discovers the perfect street food stall the next. This versatility is my greatest strength as your travel advisor. Having called Quebec, Florida, Venezuela, Georgia and now Vermont home, with adventures spanning four continents, I understand what makes a destination truly special. Whether planning for couples, multigenerational families, solo travelers or even four-legged companions, I create journeys that match your unique travel style.

My personal travel highlights include: Flying over majestic Angel Falls; Drifting alongside wild Orca pod; Scuba diving in Thailand's crystal waters; Soaking in Iceland's geothermal hot springs

I design experiences that perfectly balance your budget with unforgettable moments. Having personally experienced everything from $15 hostels to 5-star resorts, I know how to craft your ideal adventure. My travel philosophy centers on authentic experiences over packaged tourism. I believe your most treasured memories will come from unexpected discoveries and genuine connections.
