I’ve always believed that travel is the ultimate teacher. My first international trip to India at 15 opened my eyes to the beauty of different cultures and the transformative power of stepping outside your comfort zone. Years later, while studying abroad at Oxford, I spent weekends hopping from one European city to the next—falling even more in love with history, culture, and immersive experiences.
In 2015, I left the corporate world to homeschool my three kids and turn the world into their classroom. It was one of the most meaningful pivots of my life. From walking ancient Roman roads in Italy to exploring art museums in Paris, travel has become the way we bring history, literature, and culture to life. In Iceland, we explored the landscapes that inspired ancient Norse myths and folktales, connecting storytelling with the natural world in a way that was both magical and meaningful. What started as planning immersive, educational travel for my own family soon grew into something more, as friends and clients began asking me to design their journeys, too.

That’s how At Home in This World was born.
Today, I bring the precision, structure, and high-level problem-solving I honed in the corporate world into every trip I design. Whether it's a hotel booking or a full-scale itinerary, I approach each journey like a puzzle: uncovering pain points, solving challenges before they arise, and creating seamless, elevated experiences with thought and care.
Luxury, to me, isn’t just about five-star hotels (though I do have my favorites—like Four Seasons Hualalai, Mandarin Oriental Lake Como, and Rosewood Mayakoba). It’s about travel that feels effortless, immersive, and deeply personal.
My goal is simple: to help you feel at home in this world—curious, relaxed, and free to focus on what matters most: the experience itself.

Travel design is a personalized, high-touch approach to trip planning that goes far beyond booking flights and hotels. I create seamless, tailored itineraries that blend luxury, authenticity, and thoughtful details—without the stress.
With insider access, VIP perks, and carefully curated experiences, you’ll enjoy a trip that feels effortless and completely your own.
Answer
Luxury, to me, isn’t about a price tag—it’s about how a trip makes you feel. That might look like a private vineyard stay in Tuscany, a chic design hotel in Copenhagen, a wellness retreat in Costa Rica, or a sleek city break balanced with nature-driven moments. I design travel that’s immersive, comfortable, and elevated—whatever that looks like for you.
Answer
Yes! I’ve crafted unforgettable trips all over the world. While I specialize in Europe—especially Italy, France, and the UK—I work with trusted partners globally to design experiences just about anywhere. From a wine-soaked escape in Provence to a boutique island retreat in the Caribbean or a scenic European river cruise, I’ll tailor every detail to your travel style and goals.
Answer
Because of my industry partnerships, clients often receive exclusive benefits, such as:
✔ Room upgrades (when available)
✔ Daily complimentary breakfast
✔ Resort or spa credits
✔ Early check-in & late check-out
✔ Personalized experiences and VIP recognition
Even with hotel-only bookings, I work directly with properties to ensure your stay feels truly special.
Answer
Hotel bookings through my preferred partner programs are always complimentary—and include valuable perks at no extra cost to you.
For full itinerary planning, my fee is $50 per day of travel. This includes personalized research, curated experiences, logistics, and in-trip support.
À la carte services—like transportation coordination, group or incentive trip planning, or activity bookings—are priced individually based on complexity. We’ll walk through all options clearly during your consultation.
Answer
Nope! If the hotel is part of one of my preferred partner programs, there’s no fee to you—and you’ll still receive exclusive perks like upgrades, breakfast, and resort credits. For hotels outside of those programs, a small booking fee may apply (we’ll always talk through that upfront).
Answer
Yes! I work with a dedicated flight desk to handle bookings for Premium Economy, Business, and First Class cabins. The service fee is $50 per ticket and includes 24/7 in-travel support.
Answer
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Consultation – We’ll chat about your travel goals, style, and vision.
Step 2: Proposal – I’ll design a custom itinerary with curated accommodations and experiences.
Step 3: Refinement – You review, we fine-tune, and finalize everything together.
Step 4: Booking & Execution – I handle the details—reservations, logistics, and perks.
Step 5: Bon Voyage! – You enjoy a seamless, beautifully designed trip with my support along the way.
Answer
I don’t book points or miles-based travel, as my expertise and industry relationships are primarily centered around cash bookings—especially with hotels, where I can add the most value for you through exclusive perks, upgrades, and VIP treatment.
That said, I often recommend transferring points to airline partners for the best value on premium airfare. I’m happy to help you think through how your points can complement the trip we plan—even if I’m not booking that portion directly.
Answer
Hotels build commission into every stay, whether you book through a travel advisor or on your own. When you book through me, that commission comes to me instead of going to a big online booking site or back to the hotel brand—without costing you a penny more.
What makes the difference is the value I add: I communicate directly with the hotel on your behalf, advocate for you, and often secure meaningful upgrades and perks that wouldn’t be available through a standard booking. It’s the same price—but a much better experience.
