About
I am an SF sailor who loves design and every cuisine’s fried dough.
Travel style
The beauty of travel is in discovering context. To gain a sense of a place, I like to mix adventures (dips in volcanic mud pools and helo rides to glaciers) with quiet studies (insider tours and dinners with locals). Time to reflect is key. I enjoy hotels that blend intriguing design, well-considered amenities and impeccable customer service into an atmosphere that is both comforting and inspiring. As your travel advisor, I am your partner in connecting with locals, savoring little-known treasures and getting behind the postcard.

Lisa's reviews
Lisa was a dream to work with. She provided great information and choices from the beginning of our trip planning and all the way through, and helped to be sure everything was in place for us. The itinerary portal was a really awesome tool and keep things well organized. Lisa's great communication made it easy to manage updates/changes on the portal during the planning stages. This trip would not have been nearly as pleasant if didn't have Lisa helping us. We will never take another trip without her!

Lisa has been so awesome and I have enjoyed having her assist in our travel plans and suggestions! So much so she is handling our travel and arrangements for my daughter's Italian 2025 wedding! I love how organized I felt having the app to check on itineraries, contacts, and info. She was very helpful on some of the hiccups that were out of her control but appreciated that support. Highly recommend her!
