IMMERSIVE TRAVEL IN LATIN AMERICA & THE US WEST
I offer authentic, meaningful travel experiences in the Western US and national parks, where diverse landscapes and vibrant cities backdrop colorful local customs and traditions. From New Mexico’s high desert mountains to Washington’s fog-shrouded evergreens, you’ll never tire of exploring the West.
I also specialize in trips to Latin America, all the way to Patagonia’s End of the World. I’ve traveled and lived throughout the region and am convinced nowhere on earth offers a richer experience. You can wake up to the sounds of the jungle and fall asleep to the crashing of waves, and fill the day in between with everything from archaeology to adventure to acupuncture; shops, surfing, and sloths.
Multi-generational trips might be my favorite to plan—travel creates the best family memories. For peace of mind, know that my background is in risk analysis and crisis response, and I take your safety and wellbeing seriously.
Thanks for trusting me to bring your travel dreams to life.

Argentina Travel Expert
Europe…South America…Europe…South America. Can’t decide? There’s no need to: Argentina is the perfect compromise.
Situated on a river, just like so many of its European counterparts, Buenos Aires has that unmistakable port-city energy. Standing on its docks, it feels like the whole world m...

Ecuador Travel Expert
The country of Ecuador was created as a buffer state in between its two larger neighbors, so it’s no surprise this small South American nation shares a lot of their characteristics. Ecuador’s coastal region has an irresistibly lively and energetic Colombian Caribbean vibe, while in the more reser...

Arizona Travel Specialist
There’s something alluring about the American Southwest, something that beckons us. The hint of monsoon on the desert air. Ancient ruins that hold their secrets. Canyons and cowboys and that unquenchable yearning to see what’s over the next rise.
Arizona, more than any other state, embodie...

Iguazu Falls
“Poor Niagara.” Eleanor Roosevelt exclaimed those words when she first visited Iguazu Falls, on the border of Argentina and Brazil. It’s a sentiment everyone who visits the landmark shares, along with the feeling of awe brought on by the vast amount of water, and the force with which it tumbles i...

There may be no place on earth as utterly alluring as Patagonia. The bottommost region of South America boasts beauty beyond compare, and no single place encapsulates Patagonia better than Chile’s Torres del Paine.

The Galapagos Islands: A Jewel in your Travel Crown
Off the beaten path is a bit of an understatement. In fact, the only type of path the Galapagos is on is flight paths; the islands are only reachable by air. For many travelers, it’s the trip of a lifetime, a truly unique opportunity to s...

Bariloche: A Bavarian Village with South American Sensibilities

Flying High in Quito
There are a lot of reasons to visit Ecuador’s skyhigh capital city, and Quito’s award-winning airport is one of them. Airports are essentially warehouses for people on the move. We’re satisfied if they’re clean (or at least not filthy) and convenient (or at least not maze-like), and offer a handf...
