about
Optimize your trip of a lifetime.
My itineraries are designed with passion and expertise. We maintain our freedom while supported by local outfitters who help make the most of our time away. Logistics, including airport transfers, accommodations, local guides and domestic transportation (plane, helicopter, bus, train, private car), are arranged in advance, saving you time. I will greet you at your destination so you feel at home and at ease in a faraway place. Your senses will come alive in this new, exotic place. We go with the flexible flow, immersed in long days, memorable moments, awesome evenings, magical sights, soundscapes and deep conversation. Keeping active allows us to engage with the local people, their cultures and traditions.
I love to trek. Let's explore. Prepare to amaze yourself. Bring a journal! Travel with me.
