Less Stress Travel


Meet Paula - Your Personal Travel Designer


After 48 years with a major airline and a lifetime exploring the world, from Vietnam to Paris, Hawaii to Columbia, and beyond, I’ve turned my passion for travel into helping others craft their own unforgettable journeys. 


I specialize in:


✦ Customized Itineraries - Tailor-made travel experiences designed just for you


✦ Solo Travel - Guidance and planning for independent travelers, inspired by my own extensive solo travel adventures, which have become some of my most rewarding and memorable journeys 


✦ River Cruises - Cruise options that offer a relaxed pace, enriching cultural experiences, and intimate ships designed for travelers looking for a refined and immersive journey


✦ Personalized Travel Support - Advice and assistance before, during, and after your trip


The Process

We will schedule a free 30 minute consultation, at which time we’ll discuss the trip you're planning, as well as what you've liked (and what you've not liked) about previous trips.  From there I’ll create a custom proposal complete with hotel and transportation options, sightseeing ideas, and restaurant recommendations.

Finalizing the Trip Plan

After you've had a chance to go over the proposal, we'll meet again to finalize your itinerary and set up required deposits and payments.

Why choose me?
.

I’ve been exploring the world for more than 50 years, and I still travel with the same curiosity and sense of adventure I had on my first trip. I still love every part of travel, including the planning.


I enjoy researching hotels, restaurants, and must-see experiences, then thoughtfully crafting day-by-day itineraries that balance iconic sights with unhurried moments, like lingering over coffee at a local café.


As an experienced solo traveler, I understand both the excitement and the hesitation that can come with traveling on your own. I especially enjoy helping women who may not have a travel companion feel confident embracing new adventures on their own.


I’ve planned countless unforgettable trips for myself, my family, and friends, and I'd love to plan yours. Let me handle the details and take the stress out of planning so that you can relax and enjoy the journey, and focus on making memories.
