POV: You walk out of your Paris hotel and realize you’re basically staying at Emily’s office. 🇫🇷✨

This is Place de Valois, the famous filming location for Savoir and Agence Grateau in Emily in Paris. And yes, it’s literally right here at Grand Hôtel du Palais Royal!

Fall tastes a little different this year. ☕🍎

Maison Voyage Issue 03 is bringing some seriously delicious pages with it. If you have NOT grabbed your quarterly print/digital membership yet...NOW IS THE TIME.

We are diving into Italian coffee culture, the rituals that make an afternoon pause feel sacred, the flavors and traditions of Northern Italy, and recipes inspired by the places featured throughout the issue.

Think warm coffee.

Apple strudel fresh from the oven in the Dolomites.

Regional specialties rooted in generations of tradition.

The dishes and drinks that tell you something about a destination before you have even finished the first bite.

Because food is never just food when we travel. It is culture, history, ritual, and one of our favorite ways to understand a place.

Wait until you see the culinary features and recipes coming in Fall Issue 03.

You may want to read this one with coffee in hand.

Greek Ferries Look Easy...Until You Start Planning.

On a map, the islands appear close together.

In reality?

Some ferry routes take 30 minutes.

Others require multiple connections and most of a day.

Luxury travel isn't about visiting the most islands.

It's about choosing the right combination of islands so your vacation feels effortless.

Fall Europe > Summer Europe?

I said what I said. 🍂

Give me crisp mornings in Paris.

Harvest season in Italy.

Wine country when the vineyards begin changing color.

A beautiful European city where I can actually wear a jacket without immediately regretting it.

And dinner outside with a glass of wine as the evening cools down.

Summer Europe is iconic.

But September, October and even early November?

That's where some of the magic happens.

Would you choose Europe in summer or fall?

Planning to travel in 2027? ✈️

I curated 10 destinations, hotels, and experiences I believe are worth traveling for in 2027 into one beautiful Maison Voyage Destination Portfolio.

From Italy and the Canadian Rockies to Turks & Caicos, Alaska and safari in South Africa, consider this your inspiration for where to go next.

Comment 2027 below, and I'll send the complimentary Destination Portfolio straight to your DMs.

One of the hardest parts of my job is saying "no."

Not because I don't want to help.

Because my name goes on every itinerary I create.

If a client comes to me with a hotel budget that I know will require compromising on safety, location, cleanliness, or the overall experience, I'll be honest.

I won't recommend a hotel that I wouldn't confidently stay in myself.

I won't send a family to an area that makes me uncomfortable.

I won't sacrifice convenience just to make a nightly rate fit an unrealistic budget.

Could I find something cheaper?

Probably.

Would I be proud to put my stamp of approval on it?

No.

And that's where I draw the line.

As a travel advisor, my responsibility isn't simply to find the lowest price. It's to recommend accommodations I genuinely believe will enhance your trip and allow you to experience a destination safely and comfortably.

If that means we're not the right fit, that's okay.

I'd rather respectfully decline than compromise my standards or your vacation.

Because at the end of the day, my reputation is built on every recommendation I make, and that's something I'm never willing to compromise.

✈️ Your vacation deserves more than the cheapest option. It deserves the right one.

Going to Greece? 🇬🇷 Please stop choosing your islands based solely on which hotel, beach, or blue dome popped up on your Instagram feed.

Because here’s what a pretty photo won’t tell you...

🏝️ Santorini, Mykonos, Paros, Naxos and Crete are NOT interchangeable.

They offer completely different experiences, and the right Greek island for your honeymoon might be completely wrong for someone else’s family vacation.

Santorini? 🌅 Incredible views, iconic hotels and romance, but there are things you need to understand about crowds, location and getting around.

Mykonos? 🍾 Yes, there’s nightlife, but there’s also incredible luxury hospitality, beautiful beach clubs and a completely different energy depending on where you stay.

Paros? 🤍 Chic, charming and increasingly popular, with gorgeous villages and a more relaxed rhythm.

Naxos? 🇬🇷 One of my favorites for travelers who want beautiful beaches, fantastic food and a more authentic Greek island experience.

Crete? 🌿 HUGE. This is not an island you casually add for two nights because you saw a pretty resort on Instagram. Where you stay matters enormously.

This is exactly why I don’t start a Greece itinerary by asking:

“Which islands do you want to visit?”

I want to know how you want Greece to feel.
🍷 Slow and romantic?
🏖️ Beach focused?
✨ Glamorous and social?
🇬🇷 Authentic and laid back?
🛥️ Private boats and beautiful hotels?
🌿 Food, culture, and exploring?

THEN we choose the islands.

Because Greece isn’t one destination.

It’s hundreds of islands, completely different experiences, and logistics that actually matter.

So yes, save that gorgeous Greece photo on Instagram.

Just don’t build your entire vacation around it.

Pretty is not an itinerary. Expertise is knowing how to turn the pretty into a trip that actually works. 🇬🇷✨

📚🇬🇧 THE SECRET IS OUT: OUR NOVEMBER BOOK + DESTINATION ARE HERE!

The Elegant Explorer’s Luxury Book Club officially relaunches November 1st, and I could not have dreamed up a more perfect book for our first month back.

Our first destination is...

🇬🇧 VICTORIAN LONDON 1895

Our November book is...

📖 The Secret Book Society by New York Times bestselling author Madeline Martin

And there is one VERY special reason I’m extra excited about this...

🎤 MADELINE MARTIN IS JOINING US!

Madeline is a local acquaintance of mine, and when I told her I was considering *The Secret Book Society* for our relaunch, she graciously agreed to pop into our November book club experience!

A book club relaunching with a book about a secret book club, set in Victorian London, AND we get to hear from the author herself?!

It was meant to be. 📚

Throughout November, we’ll use the book as our passport to London in 1895.

We’ll explore Victorian London, literary history, the lives of women during the era, afternoon tea, British food and traditions, historic neighborhoods and the places behind the story.

Then I’ll bring us into London today with my own Luxury Travel Edit, including how I would experience the city, where I would stay and what makes London extraordinary beyond the pages.

Your membership also includes our exclusive monthly destination content, recipes, digital extras, private discussions, our end of month Zoom Book Chat and special experiences throughout the month.

AND TO CELEBRATE THE REVEAL...
