Kelly Woodruff

I like to travel with a plan! I'm that girl doing months of deep research, reserving spots, and planning seamlessly efficient days (and yes, I totally enjoy doing it!). When the trip finally begins, I want to turn my brain off and coast through a perfectly planned experience. (This is what I do for my clients, too!) IMO, wasting precious vacation time deciding where to go or hungrily searching for a restaurant that 'looks OK' is the definition of a trip poorly spent. I want to KNOW everything I do is going to be fabulous and KNOW I have a seat or a table reserved exactly when I want to go!

I'm also a bit of a nerd (OK, a big nerd). Interesting history and 'this is where it happened!' moments are woven throughout all of my travels. Many of my most exciting experiences have been built around visiting 'the city's oldest ____' or going to 'the place where they invented the ____!' I often use these morsels of interesting history to shape an itinerary. I LOVE having those 'I've been there!' moments to savor long after returning home."
