Hi! I’m so glad you’re here! I’m Katelyn, a Travel Advisor who loves helping travelers turn their travel dreams into thoughtfully planned adventures that feel uniquely theirs.
I live in Chicago with my husband, our baby boy, and our toy Australian Shepherd—and if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I LOVE to travel. I’ve explored more than 30 countries across six continents, but my passion for travel started when I was just 12, traveling internationally with a choir.
One of the experiences that shaped how I see travel most was a high school exchange with a girl from Barcelona. I spent a month living with her family in Spain, and she later lived with mine. We weren’t just sightseeing—we were grocery shopping, going to school, sharing meals, and experiencing everyday life together. That month turned into a lifelong friendship (she’s now “Auntie” to my little boy! ❤️) and taught me that travel is about so much more than seeing new places—it’s about connecting with people and experiencing life from a different perspective.
Since then, I’ve lived with host families in Ecuador and Spain, studied abroad, and eventually moved to southern Spain to teach English. Those experiences gave me the chance to see destinations beyond the typical tourist perspective, and those everyday moments remain some of my favorite travel memories.
Now, I get to turn all those experiences, tips, and lessons learned into something I can share with others as a Travel Advisor. I love creating trips that go beyond a checklist of sights—trips where you taste the local food, meet the people, wander down a side street, discover hidden gems, and come home with stories you’ll tell for years.
Whether you’re planning your first international adventure or your passport is practically bursting at the seams, I’d love to help make your next trip even better than you imagined. ✈️🌎
