Hi, I’m Gwen!

Avid Traveler turned Travel Advisor

My first trip out of the country was to Grand Bahama Island with my then 13-year-old sister. I will never forget being on the beautiful white sand beaches for the first time; the sound of the steel drums as we watched a mesmerizing fire-eating performance; the nervous excitement of parasailing for the first time and the warmth of the locals as they shared their stories and their island with us.

This trip was the beginning of my thirst to discover the world. There is nothing like seeing the diversity of beauty that God created, getting to know different cultures and sharing unusual experiences. 

Now, 40 countries and 6 continents later, I am on a journey to help others do the same.I have been extremely blessed with many amazing experiences. God has been extremely good to me and has given me so much. So much so, that I want to invest in others in the same way. This is my ‘why’ for not just my travel agency but for everything I do. It’s a core value for me. 

I believe that travel irrevocably changes you. It changed me: it opened me up and broadened my perspective. It made me less rigid. And it taught me how to interact with others not like me.  Travel is not just a physical journey, it can also be a journey of the heart – moving you, causing you to evolve and expand - A heart journey. And it is my goal to make this type of travel – heart journeys – as accessible as possible. Now I invite you to take the next step and begin planning your heart journey with me.
