Travel style
I want to see everywhere and I am happy to do it solo, with my family, or in big or small groups of friends. I love to research a destination, and to find out what others have loved about it. I tend to plan itineraries that have pretty things to see, lots of time to sit and eat and drink and laugh and people watch, with fun activities in the mix. I think it is important to consider all of the members of a group when making a plan, even if it is a group of only two. It’s great to experience new things that you would not have considered on your own!

Kristen's reviews
Kristen did an excellent job finding a hotel that met all of our group's desires, which isn't always easy with six women. The restaurants she selected were delicious and the trip to Bicardi for a mixology class was a ton of fun. Looking forward to planning more trips with Kristen.

Kristen is so easy to work with. She thinks outside the box and discovers new and exciting adventures for her clients. She is professional and very knowledgeable and if she doesn’t have an answer she will research until she does.

Kristen was extremely thorough in her research in planning our trip to Puerto Rico . Her research and planning on lodging , activities and restaurants allowed for a wonderful getaway In Puerto Rico. She really managed to thread the local flair in our itinerary to experience Puerto Rico in a meaningful fashion. Can’t wait to plan another trip with Kristen!
