From a very young age, my parents encouraged my sister and me to see the world with open minds and a broader perspective, appreciating the beauty of every city, site, and place we encountered. Travel quickly became a natural part of my life, and I am grateful that today I am able to share my experiences, insights, and practical tips with others who are planning their own unforgettable journeys. Born and raised in South America, I have travelled and sailed extensively throughout the Americas. My experiences range from sailing up and down the rugged coast of Alaska, sailing the warm, turquoise waters of the Caribbean, and crossing the full length of the Panama Canal seven times, to tasting pineapple wine in Maui, standing atop the terraces of Machu Picchu and admiring its ancient citadel, zip lining through the forests of Costa Rica, and dancing through the colourful streets of Cartagena. I am deeply fond of the Americas for their sense of adventure, awe inspiring cultures and history, and breathtaking landscapes. There is so much waiting to be discovered, and I cannot wait to be part of helping you plan your next grand adventure, whether on land or on the water.

Favourite Travel Memory
Two moments define my love of travel: standing on the upper terraces of Machu Picchu as the clouds parted to reveal the ancient citadel, and zip lining over waterfalls and treetops in the forests of Costa Rica. Awe and adventure, perfectly balanced.
