Travel style

Over the 20+ years I've been a travel writer I've seen and done... a lot. I'm as comfortable bicycling through Italian olive groves and scuba diving the wall of sharks in French Polynesia as I am sipping bubbles at a champagne house and dining at Michelin-starred restaurants.

Susan 's reviews

Susan has been all over the world and her experiences and expertise certainly paid off for our first trip to Mexico City. From hotel to neighborhood to restaurant recommendations and more, Susan not only is able to tap into her hundreds of thousands of miles traveled but also into her network of travel writers to help design the PERFECT trip. I could not recommend her more highly.

Susan really did an outstanding job recommending and getting us booked at The Gwen! Her communication skills were on point. Hoping to get her help planning another trip soon.
