Travel style
I prioritize the ambiance of a destination by seeking out places that offer unique and memorable experiences through their local atmosphere. My travel decisions are heavily influenced by opportunities to immerse myself in local culture, avoiding mainstream tourist spots in favor of more authentic and lesser-known locales. I aim for a balanced approach to travel, mixing luxury with affordability. I look for destinations and accommodations that provide a sense of exclusivity with an amazing experience. I've stayed in lodges in the middle of Alaska and some of the finest 5-star properties in the world. I'm always on the lookout for the best deals that don't compromise aesthetics and experience.
