About

Hi, I'm Lauren! I am a Licensing Executive by day, and Travel Advisor by night. I’ve always had a passion for exploring new places, experiencing different cultures and discovering hidden gems around the world. My career and my adventurous personality have both afforded me the opportunity to travel. So far, I’ve visited over 35 countries and 40 states, and my journey is far from over! For fun, I enjoy playing tennis, reading and of course, traveling. I aim to visit a new city or country each month. Currently, I reside in New Jersey with my cavapoo, Lulu.

Lauren's reviews

Lauren was AMAZING! She made it extremely easy to review hotel options and picked some great ones for me to choose from! My trip to Europe would not have been the same without her help!

Lauren is an exceptional travel agent - she's organized, attentive, and truly passionate about what she does. She worked within my budget while still securing fantastic hotels and valuable perks. She’s reliable and always quick to respond. When I had a less-than-stellar check-in experience at one of my hotels, she immediately stepped in and resolved the issue, even securing an additional hotel credit for me. I highly recommend Lauren for all your travel needs - she gets the job done at the highest caliber. I’ll definitely be booking with her again soon!
