About Michael

My grandmother was a world traveler and I grew up hearing her stories of all the amazing places she had been.  This instilled a desire in me to explore and see as much of the world as I could!  As an adult, I now travel whenever I get the chance.  I've had the opportunity to see a lot of amazing places, but there are also so many more I still want to see!

​

I became a travel advisor because I LOVE planning travel!  I spend hours upon hours researching every detail for a trip.  Sometimes I even found myself planning trips I wasn't taking just for fun.  So one day I realized...why aren't I doing this for other people?  So now I am able to use my love (obsession?) for travel planning to help you have the best trip possible!

​

A few of my favorite trips so far?

​

5 weeks in Thailand traveling solo, visiting temples, eating amazing food and doing yoga on a quiet tropical island.

​

Spending a month in the Yucatan peninsula, driving around in a rental car.  No reservations, no specific plans.  Just picking each destination day by day and seeing how the adventure unfolded.

​

My first Virgin Voyages cruise!  I never thought I would be a cruise person, but boy was I wrong!  I had so much fun meeting new people, eating amazing food and enjoying all the spectacular activities they offer aboard their ships.

​

Where do I want to go next?

​

My next big solo trip is probably going to be Peru, where I plan to do the 4-day hike on the Inca Trail up to Machu Picchu.

​

I also really want to take a Virgin Voyages European cruise, sailing from Spain to Italy.  And of course, spend some time before and after at each of those countries.
