WHAT DOES VACATION PLANNING FEEL LIKE TO YOU?

Are you the unofficial travel planner in your family or group of friends?
 

Do you spend 40+ hours planning a seven day vacation?

 

Perhaps you end up with dozens of tabs open on your computer, sifting through the millions of options the internet threw at you.

As your search continues, you may notice the algorithms working against you as the prices seem to go up as the availability goes down. Not to mention pop-up ads or call center-driven online agencies that pressure you to "book now."

 

And then there are the tens of thousands of reviews from people who may or may not value the same things you do.

It doesn't have to be this way.

 

You're not a professional travel planner.

Entrust the planning details to me, then sit back and relax.
