My Story
I was born with the travel bug—as a child, my mom said I always had my bags packed. I’ve traveled the world and I love helping people have the same experiences!
Travel Style
Wherever I’m traveling, my priorities are incredible food and wine, a great hotel, interesting excursions—and a great deal. I’m a hotel snob, so I want to stay in the best place for the best price, and I’ll look for that for you.
I love taking food and walking tours to feel just a little bit like a local, but I also love a double-decker sightseeing bus. Especially on my first day, to get my bearings, fight the jet lag, and see an overview of the city and its environs. I fill my day with tours or things to do, but at an easy pace. I want to linger at meals and explore as much as I can, but also make room for a nap. If I have enough time, I like to add on a day trip to see the countryside, visit a vineyard, or explore different sites and cities.

What to say about Whitney? She has been an absolute pleasure to work with! She is super responsive and friendly. Her attention to detail is flawless! From answering questions at Christmas time to the messages and chocolate delivered to our rooms, she made our experience one to not forget! I travel a lot, but this was the first time I used her services. Certainly it will not be the last! Thank you Whitney!

Whitney was wonderful to work with! I will use her again along with recommending her to others. She has wonderfully quick response time to questions and is helpful in explaining why she suggests certain options and why not to do others. I felt confident in her recommendations because I felt like she shared the same values for an experience as we were looking for.

While the hotel had misses, Whitney once again went above and beyond to get us the best experience. On this booking she was able to get us a cheaper rate last minute that included more perks. We were upgraded and treated to a bottle of champagne thanks to her. She was also very helpful in organizing transportation which was timely and very comfortable. I will continue trusting Whitney with my travels!

Mahjong: Where to Stay & Play
When I first started playing American Mahjong with friends in 2023, I had no idea that the game would become such a craze. Now, everyone I know is taking lessons or playing: weekly, in tournaments, or in their pool on a floating Mahjong mat! Here in Charlotte, at least two Mahjong club locations are opening in 2026. Even hotels are embracing the trend. While you're traveling, you can take lessons, play in dedicated Mahjong lounges, or participate in open play with other guests. A few properties hold weekly Mahjong events, and others are hosting weekend Mahjong retreats that offer both lessons and open play. Mahjong is definitely all the rage, so here are a few places you can stay and play. Let's mahj!

Girls’ Getaway: Four Days in California Wine Country
Visits to wine regions make for classic girls' trips! My friends and I met for a long California weekend in Sonoma and Napa and enjoyed the perfect mix of togetherness through wine tastings, incredible meals and breathtaking scenery. Here’s our itinerary for a bit of inspiration. Note: We arrived on Wednesday afternoon and enjoyed drinks and snacks by the fire pits at our hotel. Then we were refreshed and ready the next day to kick off our wine-soaked weekend!

Bluffton, SC: Charming Low-Country Gem
Bluffton is a small, historic town in the South Carolina lowcountry – just outside of Hilton Head Island, S.C. but also close to Savannah, Ga. and Beaufort, S.C. Once known as a summer resort and then a retiree’s paradise, Bluffton is now a growing and thriving community for families and residents of all ages.
The town is perched on a bluff (for which it was named) above the May River. At its center is Old Town Bluffton, a quaint grid of streets lined with lush foliage and majestic, moss-draped trees. It’s a perfect mix of old and modern, with historic homes and sites alongside fashionable shops and a selection of casual and fine restaurants.
My family moved to the area in the 1960s, just as Hilton Head Island was developing into the resort location we know today. While I’ve seen Bluffton’s population (and popularity) boom in recent years, it has still preserved its small-town southern charm. Here are a few of my recommendations for a lovely getaway in Bluffton.
