My Story
As a passionate travel enthusiast and digital nomad for two years, I thrive on the thrill of exploring new destinations and immersing myself in diverse cultures. I'm dedicated to assisting others in crafting unforgettable journeys to discover the wonders of the world.
My Travel Style
My travel style involves fully immersing myself in new cities through long stays, allowing me to experience local life. I enjoy exploring neighborhoods famous for their cafés, restaurants and picturesque streets, while indulging in visits to art galleries to appreciate the work of local and world renowned artists. I enjoy incorporating a touch of adventure into each trip, seeking out stunning viewpoints for unforgettable experiences. Renting a bike is my preferred mode of transportation, enabling me to uncover hidden gems while covering plenty of ground in an eco-friendly manner. I never miss the chance to discover the best bakery in town for a delightful mid-day treat, and I seek out unique hotels with captivating designs to enhance my travel experience.

Exceptional Travel Planning and Support from Start to Finish
Working with Katie at Fora was an absolute pleasure and made our 14-day, 5-city trip to Spain feel seamless and personalized from beginning to end. She made the planning process both easy and fun, always communicating clearly and promptly, and taking our travel preferences to heart.
Katie provided fantastic recommendations for our itinerary, including restaurant suggestions, local experiences, and the timing and booking of key tours. She helped organize flights, accommodations, car rental, and transportation, and even created a beautifully structured itinerary we could easily follow on the Trello app—a lifesaver while on the go.
Her support didn’t stop once we departed—Katie remained accessible while we were traveling, helping us troubleshoot any minor issues that came up and checking in to ensure all was going well. Her enthusiasm for our trip was infectious, and it felt like she was genuinely excited for us the entire way through.
Thoughtful touches—like a welcome note at our first hotel and a complimentary bottle of wine with a beautiful message later in the trip—made the experience feel truly personalized and special.
We felt supported, understood, and completely at ease knowing Katie was behind the scenes helping to make everything run smoothly. Highly recommend Katie and Fora to anyone looking for a curated, stress-free, and unforgettable travel experience! We can’t wait to plan our next travel experience with Katie.

Katie was a dream to work with. She made the entire booking experience special by genuinely caring and showing excitement for our trip/bookings. She is a perfect mix of personable and professional making our experience so special. She went above and beyond giving us recommendations and ensuring that when small changes or adjustments were needed it went seamlessly. She's incredibly knowledgeable and really does think of everything, taking all of the work out of planning. Thanks to Katie I felt zero stress of planning and was able to just sit back and enjoy our travel. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Katie. I hope to work with Katie for many more trips to come!

From start to finish Katie was extremely helpful. I am so glad to have booked with her as she made this process seamless and pain free for me. Communication was great with Katie and she provided me with all the info I needed for a smooth check in. The restaurants she recommended and booked for me and my wife were two of the best I have eaten at in Montreal. I will be booking with Katie for all my trips moving forward, thank you again Katie!
