I specialize in “coolcations”—journeys to the world’s most awe-inspiring cold and temperate destinations where nature steals the show. Think skiing in the Swiss Alps, whale watching in Baja, Arctic cruises, and chasing the Northern Lights in Iceland. I help curious travelers design meaningful adventures that combine comfort, authenticity, and a touch of the extraordinary.
