Travel is my passion and I find it almost impossible to contain my excitement when someone mentions a trip or destination to me! Our family has been extremely fortunate to have experienced many cities and countries in the world, there is still so much more to see! Whether it is a cruise or land based vacation, it is an absolute thrill to explore new places, meet the people and experience their culture (as well as the wine, beer, gelato and of course the food)! Some destinations I have been to, once or multiple times include: CRUISES - Eastern Mediterranean itineraries - Caribbean – Eastern and Southern intineraries - Mexican Riviera (West Coast) - River cruises - Avalon - Rhine River - Basel to Amsterdam; Viking - Bordeaux; Scenic - Seine (out to Honfleur for landing beaches); AMA Waterways - Essence of Burgundy and Provence. NORTH AMERICA - British Columbia, Alberta, Oregon, California, Florida including Key West TROPICS - Hawaii, many Caribbean Islands including my favourites of Turks and Caicos including Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort, Bahamas (Harbour Island and Atlantis Resort – Nassau) to name a few. EUROPE - England, Scotland, Wales, France, Germany and Mallorca, Spain. Italy is one of our all-time favourites including Rome, Amalfi Coast, Puglia, Tuscany, Florence, Venice and the Cinque Terre. Our daughter’s wedding was in Castelina in Chianti … such special memories. DISNEY - The most magical place on earth both in California and Florida – multiple times. COMING UP - Galapagos Islands with HX (Hurtigruten's Expedition ships) and then on to Machu Picchu! That being said, I love the quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson “It’s not the destination, it’s the journey”. I am very passionate about detailed itinerary planning. If you have the time to create a trip of a lifetime, or just a specialized next vacation, I would be thrilled to make your next trip specifically made to exceed your dreams. Each day I continue to expand my knowledge both in the cruise world and land based vacation resorts and destinations.
