Italian-Style Inspiration
|
Canadians and Americans are burnt out with the current state of affairs. We're looking for travel as respite, and travel to get away from stress. It's a trend I'm seeing with my clients.
How about some Italian-style inspiration to get you dreaming and planning.
See some insider tips on exploring this nation rich in history, culture, food, and wine.

Stuck for a Christmas gift idea? Hire me to work on an experience.
I can design something for you - and even put together a gift certificate that we can personalize for your loved one or you.
I can help you design an experience in your home city, a city within driving distance, or even a train or plane away. I can put together a holiday experience for you.
We can do an overnight in a hotel, and maybe some cool experiences like a horse drawn carriage, a luxury car driving experience, hiking through wooden trails, skating on outdoor rinks, taking in a Christmas concert, seeing Christmas lights - or maybe even axe throwing or painting or cooking lessons?
Let me know if you'd like to chat. Consultation and building of packages start at $110 plus taxes; with the cost of accommodations, meals, transport, experiences, etc., depending on experiences booked. We can do day trips, weekend, or longer.
Give the gift of an experience.

Canadian Government Announcements
|
All the uncertainty and changing rules is enough to make anyone's head spin. But here is the latest advice from the Government for you to review. As with all travel, please know and review government advisories, review your insurance, and make the decision that is best for you and your family's risk profile.
|
Make sure you mark your calendars (and you can even sign up here) for my Lush Life Travel Tuesdays. These are special client presentations I host on zoom on Tuesdays, and regularly invite travel supplier partners to join me to help give you travel inspiration, and even start planning some travel. My Travel Tuesdays take place almost every Tuesday at 5pm .
