I have a passion for Switzerland. Having lived in Montreux during high school and worked in the Zurich area as an adult, my enthusiasm for this destination never wanes. I continue to look forward to exploring the cities, towns and villages; traveling throughout the country by Swiss train, interacting with the "locals" and being immersed in this distinctly Swiss culture and lifestyle! I would love to share my knowledge of this beautiful country, its culture and lifestyle with you.

I have always had the Travel Bug. Growing up in Switzerland allowed me to explore the surrounding countries. I have now been a Travel Advisor living in Flagstaff, Arizona, for 30 years, and I have explored this beautiful state and the surrounding states extensively. Even though I have been a U.S. citizen for many years, I still travel internationally often and my most favorite destination (other than Switzerland!) is Peru. Peru is truly a magical destination that once you've been there you're hooked. My opportunities to experience this diverse destination run the gamut from hiking the Inca Trail and riding a horse from the Sacred Valley to Cuzco, to escorting a group of elderly travelers with mobility issues.

I have traveled extensively throughout this world-class destination and experienced each of Switzerland’s four distinct regions, to ensure that I know all there is to see, do and enjoy! For example, my most recent venture included taking mountain excursions, exploring the spectacular countryside and visiting “must see” attractions - all via train! I am a certified Switzerland Travel Expert, and currently completing the country’s newest certification: Swiss Travel Excellence Program. Working together - we’ll utilize my extensive knowledge and expertise, combined with the assistance of my valued local contacts, to craft an itinerary geared to your specific interests, budget and time constraints.

Since 1999 - for over two decades - my focus in travel has been Switzerland! I'm proud to say that I've earned the Switzerland Specialist designation, and I continue learning about this marvelous and beautiful world-class destination with each return visit. Now...I'm eager to share my knowledge, expertise and experiences with you.

As an Independent Travel Consultant for almost 35 years and having traveled extensively throughout the world, it took only one visit and I knew I wanted to specialize in travel to Switzerland. Traveling here at least once a year, my goal is to discover new places and experiences to share with you. Although a small country, Switzerland is very diverse, and with each visit, I tour different hotel/resort properties; and visit attractions, restaurants and events to stay current on all this compelling destination offers. I've had the distinction of being Travel+Leisure Magazine's "A-List" Specialist for Switzerland for many years.

I am so fortunate to have lived in Geneva for seven years - until 2021. I continue to visit very often, as I have two children who still live here. I know this country - all of its many beautiful destinations, exciting sights to explore and year-round activities to enjoy, and that's just the beginning of all that I'll recommend to you when we start planning your upcoming Switzerland holiday.
