The Moment It All Clicked

There wasn’t one grand moment where everything suddenly made sense.
It was quieter than that.

I was on a trip — one I had looked forward to for a long time. The destination was beautiful, the hotel was wonderful, and yet something felt unfinished. We had time, we had the desire to explore, but we didn’t quite know how to make the most of where we were.

It wasn’t that the trip was bad.
It was that it could have been so much more.

We were staying at L'Auberge Del Mar, a place we loved so much that we naturally slowed down — and it was in that stillness that I began to understand how deeply the right accommodations shape the entire travel experience.

Where I Was

I remember sitting still — taking it all in — and realizing that travel isn’t just about going somewhere new. It’s about knowing how to experience a place in a way that fits you.

The right hotel can change how you feel at the end of the day.
The right pacing can turn a trip from exhausting to restorative.
The right guidance can open doors you didn’t even know were there.

That’s when I understood something important:
most travelers don’t need more options — they need clarity.

What I Realized

I realized how easy it is to miss the heart of a destination without thoughtful planning.
How often people leave saying, “I wish we had known,” or “Next time, we’ll do it differently.”

And I realized that I loved the process of helping people avoid that feeling.

Not by overloading them with activities — but by helping them choose what actually matters to them.

Why That Moment Matters

That quiet realization became the foundation of Sun & Snow Travel Co.

I didn’t set out to book trips.
I set out to help people experience travel in a way that feels intentional, balanced, and aligned with who they are.

Today, every itinerary I create is shaped by that moment — by the understanding that meaningful travel doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when someone takes the time to listen, guide, and thoughtfully connect the pieces.

Starting With Intention

Getting started doesn’t mean having everything figured out.
It means pausing long enough to ask the right questions.

That’s how I approach travel planning — and that’s how this journey began.

If you’re ready to start planning a trip that feels considered, personal, and truly memorable, I’d love to begin that conversation with you.

What Stayed With Me

What stayed with me wasn’t the destination — it was the realization that travel has a rhythm.

When that rhythm is right, a trip feels restorative.
When it’s off, even the most beautiful places can feel rushed or unfinished.

That understanding continues to guide how I plan travel today — not by adding more, but by choosing better.

Clarity Over Options

Travel doesn’t need endless choices.
It needs thoughtful ones — selected with care and intention.
