where travel meets intention
Crafting Your Journey: What to Expect
Whether this is your first time working with a travel advisor or you’re simply curious about the process, you’re in the right place. My Tailored Escape was created to make travel planning feel effortless, intentional, and completely centered around you. Below you’ll find answers to the most common questions—so you can feel confident and excited about our journey together.
our Approach
Think of me as your personal travel curator. I design custom, thoughtfully planned trips that align with your style, interests, and schedule—down to the smallest detail. From research to bookings and everything in between, I handle it so you don’t have to.
Ready to hand off the planning? Start your escape here.
Great question. Anyone can book a hotel—but not everyone can craft a seamless, enriching, and rejuvenating experience that feels just right. I combine insider knowledge, trusted partnerships, and a design-forward approach to give you the kind of trip that leaves you saying, “That was exactly what I needed.”
I plan elevated escapes for individuals, couples, and small groups who want to travel with purpose and ease. Think: cruise escapes on water that restore your spirit, cultural immersions that expand your horizons, weekend getaways that press the reset button, all-inclusive stays where every detail is handled. If it helps you escape the grind and reconnect with yourself or your group—I’m here to make it extraordinary.
Unlike an app, I actually get to know you. Your journey won’t be built from an algorithm—it’ll be thoughtfully curated based on real conversation, human insight, and a touch of magic. I create spaces for genuine moments and unexpected delights that no technology can replicate.
You deserve more than an algorithm. Let’s start your escape.
Yes, indeed! Through my carefully cultivated network, I can often secure room upgrades, early check-in privileges, thoughtful welcome amenities, or exclusive experiences that aren’t available through standard booking channels—adding layers of delight to your journey.
The Planning Process
It begins with a discovery call where I listen intently to your vision and needs. From there, we move into in-depth planning where I translate your desires into tangible experiences, followed by proposal review, thoughtful refinements, bookings, and comprehensive pre-trip guidance—plus post-trip check-ins to celebrate your journey.

That’s entirely up to you. Some clients love to be hands-on with feedback at every turn, while others prefer to share their vision and let me craft the details. Either way, you’ll always have final approval before anything is confirmed, ensuring the experience feels authentically yours.
Ideally, 4–6+ months ahead gives us the luxury of time to secure the most sought-after experiences and prepare thoroughly—though I can certainly accommodate shorter timelines depending on your destination and travel style. The sooner we begin, the more possibilities unfold.
Absolutely—this is where an itinerary audit or partial planning service becomes invaluable. I can elevate and refine what you’ve already arranged, filling in gaps and adding thoughtful touches to ensure everything flows with intention and ease.
Yes, and these are particularly special to create! I love helping clients orchestrate memorable birthdays, anniversaries, and just-because getaways that leave lasting impressions. You share the inspiration—I’ll transform it into reality with discretion and attention to every meaningful detail.

Yes, I handle it all. From securing your perfect accommodations and arranging seamless transfers to booking immersive excursions that speak to your interests. I can personally manage flight bookings or provide expert recommendations if you prefer to arrange those yourself.
