Travel style

Travel has been my biggest love and longest relationship for the last 15 years and I love sharing that passion with everyone I meet. When I travel, I like to have one big activity booked per day, but leave plenty of time for spontaneous adventures. Some of my favorite travel memories involve stumbling into one of the oldest Spanish tapas bars in the world, finding myself dancing in the street during an Argentine tango performance and wandering into a midnight lantern festival in Vietnam. When I build an itinerary, I like to help my clients book an activity that they are excited to try, but leave it open enough for these magical happy accidents to happen that make travel so special. (And if you plan for the best neighborhoods and activities they aren't exactly accidents!)

Kate's reviews

Kate is the BEST! She understood exactly what we were looking for and made the whole process quick and easy. She was able to book us some great experiences, and her expertise and experience traveling to the area gave her more insight to provide us with perfect recommendations. Already booking my next one with Kate.

As a budget traveler, I never really considered using a travel advisor—and now I feel silly for not doing it sooner! I've been traveling a LOT, and with my 40th birthday, I hosted many groups of friends with different incomes and expectations. I asked Kate to plan it, and she went above and beyond… then beyond beyond… and then above again! She’s smart, a great negotiator, and has real-life experience in so many destinations, which allows her to truly help her guests. I don’t know how she does it, but she is absolutely amazing. Thank you, Kate!

Kate booked our family trip to Punta Cana. It was our first time at a resort and Kate made the whole experience so easy. She found us the best hotel suitable for all of our needs and went the extra mile to assure they had the appropriate accommodations for our 1 year old. We had the best time. I can't wait to use Kate again for our next trip!
