Oh my goodness, edit to my post below today...I completely forgot she has a fourth trip booked to Iceland in December!! Incredible!

There is something extra exciting about seeing a client's travel dreams come to life... especially when they have three incredible adventures booked within the next nine months!

First up: London and Amsterdam 🇬🇧🇳🇱
Then: the vibrant streets, architecture, and flavours of Barcelona 🇪🇸
And finally: the unforgettable energy and beauty of Brazil 🇧🇷

I absolutely love being part of the planning process and knowing that these experiences are waiting just around the corner. Here's to making memories around the world, one passport stamp at a time!

Where would you go if you had three trips on the calendar?

🌴 Mexico is having a moment right now… and some of these prices are actually ridiculous. Not “tiny little sale” ridiculous. More like “wait… THAT includes flights too?” ridiculous.

If you’ve been craving:
☀️ beach days
🌮 tacos and margaritas
🏝️ an all-inclusive reset
📵 escaping reality for a week

…this is the time to look.

Flash sale pricing is available on select Mexico vacation packages for a limited time, and the best dates and resorts will go fast.

Email me and I will help narrow down the good stuff.

Today marks one year since I joined Personal Travel Management Ltd as my host agency for Send Me A Postcard, and I couldn't be more proud of this milestone.

With seven and a half years in the travel industry, making the move from my first host agency to this boutique West Coast agency was a bold step, and without a doubt the best career decision I have ever made. This past year has reminded me why I fell in love with travel in the first place. The personalized approach and a team that truly believes in crafting meaningful travel experiences... it has been everything I didn't know I was looking for.

To make this anniversary even sweeter, Personal Travel Management was just awarded the Ensemble Travel Member Excellence Canada Award at this week's conference in Las Vegas. What an incredible honor for an incredible team!

To my amazing clients, colleagues, and everyone who has been part of this journey: thank you. Here's to a year of growth, amazing trips, and doing what I love every single day.
