I make sure that "Let's all travel to Europe together" is indeed a great idea -- with our boutique travel company Inside Europe.
My passion is crafting one-of-a-kind journeys for like-minded people and connecting travelers with places they may have never heard of in addition to what's on their bucket list. I believe that being curious and open to taking the roads less traveled, plus seeking to make meaningful connections, is what differentiates the traveler from being just another tourist.
My favorite part of my day job is product development: connecting travelers with beautiful destinations, authentic experiences, great food, and the local people behind it all. I love traveling and live to travel also personally.
A passionate traveler + foodie, plus journalist by trade, I got ‘sucked’ into the happy industry of travel in 2000, first as a tour guide, then soon in operations, sales, and marketing.
I love being in the happy industry of travel and am the proud co-owner of Inside Europe Travel Experiences (since 2007).
In 2020, I launched Traveliciouslife.com to share my food-centric travel favorites.
Inside Europe Travel Experience is a B2B/B2C boutique tour company. Supporting local businesses, avoiding tourism, and taking the roads less traveled are part of our mission to empower people of all ages and backgrounds to #travelbettertogether.
Love being part of this community where like-minded travelers and travel pros exchange ideas and help each other.
I love traveling PERIOD. My favorite destinations are travelicious finds away from the crowds, like Bar Amore in Rome, Italy or Café Centrale in Würzburg, Germany. I'll never forget my first true safari experience in Kenya, nor kayaking with our teen daughter in the crystal blue waters of Antarctica -- where I also became a penguin stalker.
Tough one, I love islands, but also Africa, so maybe Mauritius, the Seychelles, Namibia -- and am also curious about Georgia.
After journalism, Tour Manager/Director — still don’t like the term Tour Escort.
How tourism and local life can truly co-exist.
To eat, drink + get lost!
Love the idea as a very frequent flyer, but not sure how to trace back where I've been in the last four decades... Will check it out tho. And keep on creating!
Appreciate your insights Ian, thanks for sharing.

Hello Maud, I've been traveling with our daughter since she was two weeks all, now a teen. My #1 tip is not to overthink traveling with kids, and yes, they come with a lot more stuff, especially when little, but we need to remember that people have kids... show more
