About
I'm a Los Angeles-based foodie, dog mom and travel lover who has been the go-to trip planner for friends and family! Growing up part of my life in Hong Kong before moving to California, I've always loved hopping on a plane and exploring the world around me. I can't wait to help you plan your next getaway!
Travel style
When traveling, I'm passionate about seeking the best local experiences and immersing myself in the cuisine. You can find me exploring unique neighborhoods, trying the best new restaurants, strolling the local food market or connecting with locals through authentic experiences. My goal is to curate the best memories for my clients when exploring a new place. I'm all about building an itinerary that is the perfect balance of budget-friendly and luxe options for activities, dining and accommodations.

Booked travel to Hawai'i

Nikki was phenomenal! We are such last minute planners and she was there every step of the way making sure we were good to go and having the best time! She even did lots of last minuet bookings for us when we were on the trip! She recommended the best hotels, food and excursions and really went above and beyond to make sure our experience was easy and worry free! I don’t think I can take a trip without her from now on! Nikki really went above and beyond and I cannot thank her enough for making our trip so memorable! 🤍

Working with Nikki was a wonderful and seamless experience! She was an expert on where to stay in Cancun and really helped us navigate where to stay / what to do! She took so much stress off of our travel day and even added some perks to our trip that made our stay that much better. We would definitely use Nikki again when planning our next trip!
