Travel educates; it illuminates our shared experiences and draws humanity together; it stimulates with beauty and the power of nature; it congregates families and friends who vacation together; and it expands the world to those who indulge in it.

Heidi's Story

Having spent more than 30 years working in travel, I have to say that I love what I do! I get to work with many lovely people, I’ve been blessed to see much of our lovely planet during that time, and I enjoy sharing my experiences with others.

When people ask me about my “favorite” trip or place to travel, it’s difficult to choose only one! Europe and Canada are my second homes, and I know parts of them very well. Africa is another personal favorite; while I go for the animals and will take every opportunity for game viewing, there is a quality of light there, the way plants grow, the smells, and the sounds that are like no place else. I have a passion for history, so Türkiye and Peru hold special places in my heart. I also enjoy places which surprise me… Israel, Emirates, Morocco, Chile, and so on.

I’m an opinionated and knowledgeable travel advisor. If I don’t know the answer you’re seeking, I know how to get the answer. Vacations don’t follow a cookie cutter mold, and what I find fascinating, you might find dull, so I am very clear that I plan your vacation and not my own. I share my advice and ideas but, ultimately, let you determine which aspects to include. Being your advocate is a great feeling. Travel isn’t an exact science, and I use reliable vendors and our preferred partnerships in the pursuit of providing you with a perfect trip.
