For Amy, travel is more than a change of scenery. Each trip presents an opportunity to immerse oneself in other cultures, to learn, and to unplug.

Amy had a childhood filled with adventurous family trips marked by a range of experiences including a cross-country train ride from New York City to Texas and rustic Antiguan getaways. Each of her travels ignited her passion for exploring new places and appreciating different cultures. During her career in finance, she enjoyed crafting unique vacation itineraries for friends and family as a hobby. Now, as a full-time travel advisor, she continues to bring the same level of enthusiasm to her work while empowering clients to plan their dream vacations.

Amy creates personalized travel itineraries powered by thorough research and first-hand experiences. Her robust knowledge base helps to identify destinations that match specific clients’ tastes in culmination with comfortable accommodations and sensational activities that meet their unique preferences and needs. With a penchant for exploration, Amy is constantly seeking out the newest locales and the latest adventures that make each trip she designs for clients memorable.

What has been your most memorable travel experience to date?

Traveling to new destinations as a family makes for the most memorable travel experiences. Last summer, my family and I went to San Sebastien – a destination in northern Spain that truly has something for everyone. Our days were spent lounging on the beach, hiking through scenic trails, cycling around town, and indulging in local cuisine. From there, we journeyed to Bordeaux, to visit the vineyards and savor the delectable food and wine pairings. The trip concluded in Barcelona where we were surrounded by the city’s blend of historical architecture and explored its endless shopping options.

Which destinations or hotels do you go back to again and again?

I always want to return to London! Part of it is purely based on ease, but it is mainly the culture, neighborhoods, history, and restaurants that keep me coming back. On my most recent visit, I spent time in Hampstead and Richmond, two vibrant neighborhoods that are easily accessible by many modes of transportation and full of things to see and to do. On my next trip to the U.K, I aim to make it to the Cotswolds!

Travel Tip

  • Carefully plan simple, mix-and-match outfits with the use of packing cubes. This ensures that you can likely fly with a carry-on only.
