Custom Luxury Travel - Culinary & Nature Niche
In addition to my passion for travel, my work history includes the hospitality industry, environmental conservation, eco-expedition cruising, and c-level corporate travel.

As an SNG Certified Accessible Travel Advocate, I connect those with special needs or physical challenges with resources to travel with confidence.

Client Testimonials
Excellent Communication
Jenn was excellent with communication and providing us the materials we needed to be prepared for our first international trip. There were a few items we needed related to COVID; she answered our questions promptly. At the same time, she also provided us restaurant and bar recommendations that were perfect for when we weren’t site seeing. One of the best trips of our lives, and we probably would have had a completely different experience without her. Thank you, Jenn!
