Each trip is handled with care, kindness, and attention to detail — personalized to your vision. I believe travel isn’t “one-size-fits-all.” What excites one traveler might overwhelm another, so I take the time to listen and understand what you truly want out of your journey.
To keep everything organized and secure, I use TripPlans.co, a trusted platform that holds your personal information safely while giving you easy access to your customized itinerary. This ensures your details are protected and your trip plan is clear, simple, and available at your fingertips.
My goal is to remove the stress of planning and replace it with confidence and excitement. From researching destinations to coordinating flights, transfers, lodging, and activities, I ensure every piece fits together seamlessly. No detail is too small — from noting your preferred airline seat to making sure you know the best time to visit a destination, I’m here to make travel simple and enjoyable.
I also see myself as more than a planner — I’m your advocate. If something goes wrong, I’ll step in to help resolve it. If you feel overwhelmed by too many choices, I’ll narrow them down and explain them in plain language. Every trip is handled as if it were my own family traveling, so you know it will be treated with care.
At Raspberry Travel, my approach combines organization with heart: structured enough to make everything run smoothly, but flexible enough to leave room for spontaneity and joy
Cruises Made Simple
Thinking about a cruise but feeling overwhelmed? You’re not alone! Many travelers ask the same questions:
Which cruise line should I choose?
How do I know which itinerary is right for me?
Why are there so many cabin choices and pricing options?
What excursions should I pick?
That’s where I come in. My role is to take the stress and confusion out of cruise planning by helping you sort through all the options.
A few things we’ll look at together:
Amenities – Do you want a ship with shows, kids’ clubs, adult-only spaces, specialty dining, or wellness offerings?
Itinerary – Are you more excited about exploring new islands or enjoying all the onboard activities?
Balance – Some travelers choose a cruise for the ship itself, others for the destinations — my job is to match both as closely as possible to your priorities.
With my training through cruise line partners like Royal Caribbean, Viking, Norwegian, Celebrity, and Virgin Voyages, I can guide you through the differences and help you select the best fit. From cabins to excursions, I’ll make sure your cruise experience is smooth, personalized, and unforgettable.
Tours Made for You
Not everyone loves the idea of a pre-packaged tour or spending all day on a bus. Many travelers want the flexibility to explore on their own — but still with the support of an organized plan. That’s where I come in.
Just like cruises, every tour company is different. Some focus on large group travel, while others specialize in small-group or even private experiences. My job is to learn about these differences and match you with the right provider for your style of travel.
When we plan together, we’ll look at:
Flexibility – Do you want lots of free time built in, or would you prefer a fully guided experience?
Destinations – What cities or regions are most important to you, and how do you want to explore them?
Style – Do you enjoy the convenience of a tour bus, or would you rather move at your own pace with private guides and custom itineraries?
I work with a variety of trusted tour partners — including those that allow me to create custom itineraries. That means you get the best of both worlds: the structure and support of a tour company, with the freedom to experience destinations in your own way.
Whether you want a small-group cultural journey, a private guided adventure, or a customized mix of tours and independent travel, I’ll help you find the option that feels right for you.
An all-inclusive vacation can be one of the easiest and most relaxing ways to travel — but with so many resorts and destinations to choose from, it can also feel overwhelming.
Questions I often hear are:
Which brand or resort is best for me?
What’s really included — and what’s not?
Do I want adults-only, family-friendly, or multi-generational options?
Should I stay in Mexico, the Dominican Republic, or another Caribbean island?
That’s where I come in. Each resort brand has its own personality, style, and perks. Some are perfect for families with kids’ clubs and waterparks, while others are designed for romance and relaxation with gourmet dining and luxury spas. My job is to match you with the resort that fits your travel style, budget, and priorities.
I work with trusted all-inclusive brands across the Caribbean and Mexico — including Sandals & Beaches, AMR Collection, Hilton, Marriott, Dreams. Sandals, RIU, Club Med and more. Together, we’ll find the right destination, the right resort, and the right package so all you have to do is pack your bags and enjoy.
Note: Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands are not do not have all-inclusive resorts. They may have some where breakfast is included, but options are limited.

Looking for something else?
Not every trip fits neatly into a category — and that’s the beauty of custom travel planning. Maybe you’re dreaming of an ancestry trip to trace your family roots, an educational journey that brings learning to life, or an adventure built around a big sporting event or festival.
Whatever your interests, I can design a trip that’s tailored specifically to you. With my network of travel partners and ability to customize itineraries, we’ll create an experience that matches your passions, schedule, and budget — no cookie-cutter travel required.
Ski & Snowboard Vacations
Ready to hit the slopes? From Colorado and Vermont to the Alps, ski and snowboard trips are an exciting way to blend adventure with stunning scenery.

Whether you’re a beginner, an experienced skier, or traveling with family, I’ll customize your ski vacation so it’s easy, fun, and stress-free.
Golf Getaways
If the perfect vacation for you includes time on the greens, I can make it happen. Golf getaways are more than just tee times — they’re about blending your passion for the game with the relaxation of a vacation. I’ll arrange access to top courses, resort stays with built-in golf packages, and even balance the trip with spa time, fine dining, or excursions for non-golfers in your group. Whether you want a weekend retreat or an international golf experience, I’ll design a trip that keeps everyone happy on and off the course.
Hiking Adventures
For those who love exploring on foot, hiking vacations are the perfect way to connect with nature and discover new destinations. From U.S. national parks to Europe’s scenic trails, I’ll help match you with routes and guided options that fit your pace and comfort level. Want a day hike as part of a bigger trip? Or a full adventure focused on trails and outdoor exploration? Either way, I’ll help design a trip that balances active days with comfortable stays, so you return refreshed and inspired.

Travel isn’t just about getting away — it’s about connecting with the things that matter most to you. Whether your passion is food, culture, family roots, or learning, I’ll help you design a trip that reflects your interests and creates meaningful experiences.
Food & Wine
From vineyard tours in Europe to culinary hotspots in the U.S. and Caribbean, food and wine travel is a delicious way to explore. I can plan tastings, cooking classes, vineyard stays, or foodie city tours, tailoring the experience to your tastes. Whether it’s a wine trail in France, whiskey in Scotland, or farm-to-table experiences close to home, I’ll help create a flavorful journey.
History & Culture
Step back in time with history-focused travel that brings destinations to life. Explore castles in the UK, Roman ruins in Italy, Civil War sites in the U.S., or walking tours that dive into local culture. I’ll arrange guided experiences and independent exploration opportunities so you can connect with the stories and heritage of each place.
Ancestry Travel
Curious about your family roots? Ancestry travel can take you to the towns, regions, or countries that shaped your family’s story. I’ll help plan visits to historical archives, local landmarks, and even connect you with guides who specialize in heritage trips — so your journey is personal, memorable, and deeply meaningful.
Educational Travel
Learning doesn’t stop in the classroom. From homeschool families to adult learners, educational travel is an incredible way to bring subjects to life. Think science trips to national parks, literature tours in England, art experiences in Paris, or cultural exchanges abroad. I can design trips that blend fun with learning, whether for families, groups, or schools.
