Travel style
My journey as a traveler began over a decade ago, taking me through vibrant cities and remote landscapes across the globe. With firsthand knowledge and personal experiences to share, I am committed to helping others discover the unique wonders of travel. Based in West Hollywood, California, I am deeply connected to the LGBTQ+ community and its allies. My vision for travel was born from a desire for something beyond traditional destinations — something more inclusive, more authentic and more meaningful.
Throughout my travels, I’ve recognized the importance of safety, belonging and connection for LGBTQ+ travelers exploring new places. I strive to curate exceptional, luxurious travel experiences that celebrate diversity and cultural enrichment while offering a warm and welcoming space for all. Each adventure is thoughtfully crafted, focusing on hand-picked destinations that embrace authenticity, inclusivity and respect. Whether it’s immersing in vibrant festivals or enjoying exclusive local dining, every journey is designed to be deeply personal and unforgettable. Together, let’s discover, connect and celebrate our place in the world — one extraordinary adventure at a time.
