My epitome of bliss is swinging in a hammock. Whether I'm swaying on a sunny beach where i can dip my hand in the ocean or in a secluded tree house resort, I'm always searching for that new favorite. My goal is to give my clients that same feeling of complete contentment I experience in a hammock while they are on their vacation. 

I grew up seeing the world from a road trip perspective until my first plane ride at 15 years old opened my eyes to a new world of travel. Since then, I have visited 20+ countries and replaced countless passports. After years of recommending locations to friends from personal travel experiences, I realized my true passion was as a vacation matchmaker. Travel experiences are like dating and as a vacation matchmaker I want to pair clients' wants and dreams with the perfect destination.

I love recommending what I know. It allows me to give you those coveted little details and information on must do and not to miss items. The research that goes into a destination to find those nuggets is what I love about traveling to a new destination!

Planning travel for two people is different than planning travel for ten! Between my husband I, we have six children, and I am well versed in the nuances that go with large family groups. When I'm not planning travel for my big brood, my husband and I are off exploring new locations to recommend and maybe one day retire too!

My team and I cultivate personal relationships with the properties we book to ensure that our clients are treated fabulously. Time is precious...spend it vacationing. I'll spend it researching for you!

Trip of a lifetime!

Reviewed By Kim - Arlington Heights, IL | Traveled to Jamaica ~ Caribbean
Julie was amazing in every aspect! She asked upfront for our budget and things that were important to us and then provided us with several options to choose from that met those parameters. She then assisted us with every aspect of booking the trip from travel to excursions to golf tee times. This was priceless for a couple like us with limited time to work on researching and scheduling vacations!

Girls getaway made easy!

Reviewed By Northern girl seeking sun - Lakewood, ohio | Traveled to Dominican Republic ~ Caribbean
Julie was wonderful to work with, and I would definitely recommend her to others. She did a wonderful job, organizing our groups, travel, and was patient and flexible when changes needed to be made. She helped us narrow down our choices for places to stay based off of what we wanted out of the trip, which was also extremely helpful as there are so many resorts to choose from.

First Time to Disney World

Reviewed By GQ - Milwaukee, WI | Traveled to Walt Disney World ~ Florida ~ USA
From our initial conversion, I knew Julie was the right person to help me plan this trip. Prior to this trip, I knew little about Disney World and she helped me understand basics so that my kids and I could enjoy our time. She followed through in a timely manner during the booking process, and gave me very helpful tips how to navigate our way through this magical place, Disney World!
