Meet your travel planner

Hi, I’m Kelly.

After years in the fast-paced tech world, I traded burnout for balance — and returned to what energizes me most: books, travel, and the joy of discovering a city’s true character.

With a background in literature (and a book in my bag everywhere I go), I plan trips with curiosity and care — helping travelers slow down, savor their time away, and experience places like locals do.

Let’s start planning

Start with a complimentary consultation. In this 20–30 minute call, we’ll talk through your travel goals, budget, and style. From there, I’ll recommend the best hotels for your trip — and if you’d like, we can add on a custom itinerary or full-service planning.
