There's nothing I enjoy more than planning luxury cruise itineraries or sharing all that my hometown of Port Charlotte, Florida has to offer.

Next, let's travel from the high seas back to southwest Florida and my home in Port Charlotte. Situated half-way between Fort Myers and Sarasota, Port Charlotte is the perfect base of operations for your fabulous Florida vacation!

I've been very fortunate to have been in the travel industry for over 25 years, and look forward to sharing with you my two favorite - and diverse - destinations New Zealand and California, and my specialty: Traveling with Disabilities.

First, we'll visit New Zealand. As a New Zealand Specialist Gold Level, I've tramped through forests, waded across snow-melting rivers, hiked up and down mountains, and stayed in accommodations that ranged from five-star+ to local farms -and everything in between - on these incredibly diverse North and South Islands.

My unique travel specialty - Traveling with Disabilities - is personal, as my aging parents have mobility issues and my sister - Down Syndrome. Having traveled with my family on numerous occasions and seeing and experiencing - first-hand - the special care they required, motivated me to become an expert and advocate!

Now...we're heading back to California and my home state.

As a Certified Travel Counselor who also holds a degree in Travel and Tourism, and having traveled extensively in Mexico for over twenty years, I am ready and eager to share with you my extensive first-hand knowledge and experiences about this amazing destination. From creating a vacation of total R&R to designing an itinerary filled with non-stop, active adventure on land and sea, I will design and implement the perfect itinerary to meet and exceed your expectations.

I'm proud to say that my client feed-back is very positive. I am not only knowledgeable and professional, but also dependable and always accessible to my clients. Exciting options for your trip may include an amazing sunset catamaran adventure, visiting a turtle sanctuary, a spa experience in Tulum, or swimming with whale sharks in the Sea of Cortez at La Paz.

As an experienced and knowledgeable travel advisor who has been fortunate to experience and explore much of our world, there are two destinations that are my very favorites: Italy and my home state of Utah. I look forward to sharing both with you.

To say that I'm passionate about Italy and all things Italian is truly an understatement! I've lived here and am fluent in Italian. I cook Italian, and I certainly eat Italian. I've studied all aspects of their enviable lifestyle, culture, cuisine, and accommodations, as well as experienced exciting and unique things to see and do. Whether this will be your first - or 21st - visit to Italy; whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or part of multi-generational family group, I have the expertise to craft your itinerary to ensure that I not only meet -but exceed - your every expectation.

Next, we'll come back across the Atlantic and head to the beautiful western state of Utah. Adventures await!

I'm a family-focused travel advisor who shares a passion for two world-class, amazing destinations: United Kingdom, and California.

We'll start in the UK. I have extensive, first-hand knowledge about many UK venues and I'm eager to share my passion for the UK by creating highly-personalized itineraries. I am a certified Brit Agent, and family focused, as many of my excursions back and forth across the pond have been with my son in tow. As such, I've also experienced many of these destinations as a traveling mom, and know what attractions, restaurants, accommodations, etc. will appeal and be appropriate for families with children (e.g., a Harry Potter-focused adventure in London.)

Two of my favorite destinations on earth are Alaska and my native California.

Alaska offers unspoiled scenery, vast wilderness, spectacular glaciers, mountains, and wildlife. Travelers are spoiled for choice as our last frontier has a plethora of activities for both the adventurous type and those who prefer to visit ports of call via a luxury ship. Also, there are smaller expedition-style vessels for the active traveler that ply inland waterways for up close wildlife viewing, and often sail where the large ships cannot. In Alaska, you can kayak on the ocean, raft on rivers, watch for whales, hike, bike, or even enjoy an excursion on a vintage gold-rush-era train. The thrilling highlight of one of my journeys was landing on a glacier via an exhilarating helicopter ride!

California also showcases amazing scenery. There are redwood forests to discover, stunning ocean-front destinations like Big Sur, or Steinbeck's historic Monterey and the artist colonies in Carm

My business is 75% all-inclusive, and all-inclusive resorts and Hawaii are my two specialties!

I pride myself on giving my clients first-hand knowledge about an all-inclusive resort, and I strive to only recommend/sell resort properties that I have personally visited and experienced. There are all-inclusive resorts all over the globe and I look forward to utilizing my 15 years of experience and expertise to help you decide which property will best suit your needs and interests.

Next, let's talk about Hawaii... my most favorite destination on the planet, my second home, and my one true love! I know these islands like the back of my hand! Hawaii truly showcases an abundance of unique and exciting things to see and do that will interest and appeal to everyone! First, we'll decide on which island(s) you'll stay, and then discuss options for your accommodations.

There are many places that I love to discover, visit, and explore, but there are just three areas in the world where I truly dedicate my long-time experience and expertise: Croatia (I was born, reared and currently reside here), Morocco (now considered my "second home"), and... my states-side home and office location: Boca Raton, Florida.

Next, we'll head back across the Atlantic to Florida, and specifically to Boca Raton.

I'm proud to say that I'm an expert for Alaska as well as a specialist for Sustainable Travel.

First, Alaska. As one who lives, breathes, and experiences unique destinations - no destination better describes "a perfect day" than this "Last Frontier." I look forward to sharing with you all that Alaska showcases, and why I love this Great Land! Together, with my husband and dog, we have explored Denali many times, driven well into the Arctic Circle - including a visit to the tiny miner town of Wiseman, and stayed at the least-visited and biggest National Park in the entire USA - Wrangell St. Elias (Did you know it is the size of Switzerland?).

Next, Sustainable Travel. I am eager to work with travelers who share my passion for sustainable travel, and to create unique, one-of-a-kind itineraries to destinations throughout the world.

Designing and crafting the perfect vacation, adventure, or getaway for you is what I do best. My expertise runs the gamut from sharing my personal experiences and expertise to "paint a picture" of what your perfect River Cruise adventure will be, and what your perfect California getaway can be.

Among my many varied travel passions and favorite destinations, the two that top my list are Israel and South Florida.

First, Israel. For over four decades, I've had the incredible opportunity to visit, explore, and enjoy this historic and beautiful country. In fact, I consider Jerusalem my second home. Now, I want to share Israel with you. I want you, too, to become immersed in the historic, cultural, and recreational aspects of this ancient destination. I want to share with you the extreme contrast between experiencing such holy sites as the Old City of Jerusalem as versus the cosmopolitan, 24-7 atmosphere of the seaside city of Tel Aviv. And that's just the beginning of all that I will share with you about this very diverse, world-renown destination.

South Florida. Truly, I live in vacation-land in Fort Lauderdale and the fun is endless! As a long-time nature and photography lover, South Florida has become my playground of sorts.

I have planned many memorable experiences during my career as a travel advisor with a special focus on Mexico and All-Inclusive Resorts.

Mexico is my favorite country, and I look forward to sharing my expertise with you about this amazing and exciting country. Whether you need my assistance to arrange a destination wedding, honeymoon, group, or family travel, or to make your arrangements for a fun getaway south of the border for a long, relaxing weekend just for the two of you, I can make it happen.

All-Inclusive I have personally experienced and/or toured over 150 all-inclusive resorts throughout the world! Additionally, I have completed extensive training and am certified with several of the world's best all-inclusive resort and hotel companies.

As a professional travel advisor for over twenty years, I've traveled to and experienced many parts of our world on both land excursions and cruises. And many of my cruises have been to Mexico. I love Mexico! The locals are friendly, welcoming and accommodating. There is so much diversity in the country with opportunities to explore the ancient Mayan ruins, cenotes, water parks; also enjoy diving, snorkeling, sailing and an abundance of other water sports, as well as hiking and land excursions.

Accommodation options range from over-the-top luxury to budget - and I can help you select the perfect accommodations to match your interests and budget. Additionally, Mexico hosts a variety of fun festivals.

For well over a decade, I've been creating and crafting itineraries for my valued clients to destinations world-wide, as well a closer to home. And home for me is the great state of California. Whether you're eager for a one-of-a-kind, highly-personalized weekend getaway, or you're eager to tour the state from north to south; east to west over a leisurely 2-3-week period... I can arrange it.

I look forward to sharing with you all that this dynamic destination offers! From San Francisco to San Diego; Palm Springs to Santa Barbara; Disneyland and Universal Studios to Knotts Berry Farm, Hollywood, and everywhere in between... I can get you there. We'll discuss your interests, budget, time constraints, "must haves" and "wish list."

I am not only an experienced Caribbean Cruise Specialist, who holds certifications with most all major cruise lines, I am also a Specialist for Florida, so you can be assured that not only will I recommend the perfect ship, itinerary, and shore excursions for your upcoming Caribbean cruise, I can also plan a perfect pre- or post- cruise getaway in the Sunshine State.

We'll discuss stateroom options and amenities, as well as what to expect in on-board ambiance, entertainment, dining options, fitness and spa services, etc. Once you decide on your ship and itinerary, we'll talk about the ports you'll visit, and what each offers its visitors.

Next, let's talk about your Florida adventure. I don't have to tell you, Florida has so much to offer!

What a fun and exciting destination! Las Vegas truly offers something for everyone - from gaming to sightseeing, first class live entertainment, golf, concerts, fine dining, shopping, sporting events, nearby camping and hiking, and that's just the beginning of all there is to see and do here.

As your Signature Travel Expert-Select® advisor, I look forward to talking with you and learning your definition of a Las Vegas getaway. In fact, this destination was so compelling to me - that I relocated here so that I will know first-hand everything that's happening both in Las Vegas and the nearby areas.

I have two distinct and unique specialties: Arranging and escorting highly-personalized Cruise Groups, and… sharing my hometown of New Orleans with you. First, we’ll cruise the high seas and then head south to the “Big Easy.”

Cruise Groups - During the past 15 years, I have personally experienced more than 40 destinations throughout the world and have experienced -first hand - many different cruise lines, ships, and itineraries – including ocean liners, mega ships, river cruise vessels, small ships and yachts. As such, I am very knowledgeable about your options. Working together, we’ll make sure that everyone in your group is recognized and respected for their input and what they’re most looking forward to on their cruise.

Now that we’re back on dry land, let’s head to New Orleans. This is my hometown and I’m very proud to say that I’m at least an 8th generation resident of NOLA! My father’s family immigrated here from France in 1851 – more than 170 years ago. This

Two of my favorite destinations in the world are the United Kingdom and the state of California.

With every return visit to the stunning United Kingdom, I find new experiences for my clients to make memories of a lifetime from staying in a castle, having tea where Queen Victoria dined, or wandering through King Henry VIII's hunting grounds.

Now let's explore my home state of California. We'll start in Napa Valley, where I can easily arrange private tours of unique vineyards especially beautiful at harvest time. We'll stop in the Redwood Forest to gaze at the trees, Shop and eat our way through San Francisco and then head south to explore the spectacular coastline through Carmel, Big Sur and Santa Barbara, with a stop at the legendary Hearst Castle.

My expertise spans two very diverse - albeit enchanting and exciting - destinations! The UNITED KINGDOM and HAWAII. My knowledge has been meticulously assembled by frequently exploring each destination in-depth and finding new hidden gems each time I visit. I also focus on maintaining a portfolio of favorite bespoke hotels, lodges and residences along the way, taking note of the unique qualities of each one and how they might appeal to my travelers. In addition to the tools at my disposal, I nurture a network of local contacts in both destinations to keep me apprised of new lodging, restaurants and attractions that open, as well as upcoming festivals and events. All these assets combined enable me to design travel plans that are tailored exactly to the wishes and priorities of each client.
