Meet Lauren, your travel planner

I’m a travel writer turned travel planner. I began exploring the world at a young age and haven’t slowed down since.

I’m passionate about helping people make their travel dreams a reality. I love getting to know my travelers and crafting personalized trips that are truly unique. I’m organized (excessively, some would say) but that just means I handle all of the minutia so all you need to do is show up.

I adore all types of travel. You’re just as likely to find me sipping margaritas on a beach in the Caribbean as trekking in the jungles of Thailand. My current favorite travel destination is Oaxaca, Mexico.
