About
Sun-seeker whose passion is to explore the world and all its beauty, while staying in the finest luxury and lifestyle hotels and resorts.
Travel style
As an event planner, I've had the pleasure of traveling to some amazing destinations around the world and have stayed at some of the finest properties. My work travel is very structured with a strict hour-by-hour agenda. When I travel personally, I gravitate towards a more free flowing agenda, where I have options but not set plans. I call it the “No Plan Plan”. I like to have ideas of things to do and see but not have it all prearranged so I have to be on a schedule.

Julie's reviews
We wish we could give Julie a 10-star review! We let her know it was our dream to visit Four Seasons Seychelles, and she took care of the rest. Not only did she help us book our accommodations, but she also arranged transportation to and from the airport as well as a daily breakfast credit, both of which were immensely helpful. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a STUNNING hilltop villa, complete with the most thoughtful personal touches in our room. Julie was always available to answer our questions, provide recommendations, and address any concerns, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment of our honeymoon without worry. Her ability to create unforgettable experiences shined through in every detail, and we wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking for a seamless and unforgettable travel experience. Thank you for making our honeymoon dreams a reality!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Julie for our wedding hotel block! From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The entire process seamless and stress-free. She listened attentively to our preferences and budget constraints, then worked tirelessly to secure the ideal accommodations for our guests. Julie was always available to answer our questions and address any concerns promptly, and she provided regular updates on the booking progress, important dates, and available upgrades. We are immensely grateful to Julie for her expertise and outstanding professionalism. She played a crucial role in making our wedding weekend unforgettable, and we wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable planner. THANK YOU, JULIE!!!

This is the second time I have worked with Julie. Each time she has offered tons of options, and a bit of information about the area we are looking to travel. She was great about following up and checking in and we had notes in our rooms from her! It was a sweet touch, that made me smile after a long travel day.
