ABOUT ME
Travel Planner, Travel Agent
My passion for planning vacations and unique experiences for my family, led me to create my own business, PS Travel More. I absolutely love traveling with my husband and two kids, who are now young adults. We have shared so many magical experiences together which has not only brought us closer as a family, but given our children a love for new places, cultures and ideas. From learning thru historical tours to food tours, observing soccer (football) games to flamenco dancing, and riding Segways to Vespas, we have experienced it all.
Whether it's a destination vacation, a cruise, or a two week trip to Europe, I can assist you with creating the best plan to make the most of your time and budget.
UNIQUE EXPRIENCES WHILE CREATING LIFETIME MEMORIES
Priceless
On my 3rd visit to Rome, I really wanted to get outside of the typical touristy zones and see what the city really has to offer. I arranged for my family, plus some extended family, to take a Vespa tour outside the city. It was an absolute blast, a little scary (have you seen the Italians drive?) but super fun. Now, that may not be on your list, but there are so many fun things to see and do when you get off the beaten path. Let me help you discover those experiences and get ready to have the time of your life!
BEAUTIFUL DESTINATIONS
European Focus
As I have mentioned previously, I have done a fair amount of traveling myself. Some of my favorite destinations have been in Europe. From the beauty of lush, green and rugged Ireland to the white washed walls and sun kissed streets of Greece, I would love to share my experiences and knowledge with you.

TRAVEL TIPS
The Inside Scoop
PACKING ESSENTIALS 101: TRAVEL LIGHT, TRAVEL PREPARED
While a good backpack is ideal for European travels, that may not be the best solution for every travel destination. No matter the bag, it is always best to travel light. With that being said, I always bring a minimum of two pairs of shoes. If you vacation involves a lot of walking, your feet will thank you for switching shoes regularly.
Depending on your travel destination and the time of year, it's best to define a travel wardrobe capsule. A capsule will allow you to mix and match with the least possible pieces of clothing and still be suitable for any occasion.
TRAVELING HINTS TO MAKE THE MOST OUT OF YOUR VACATIONS
There are a few basic rules I use when traveling:
1 - Based on number of travel days, I may fly into one city and out of another. Train travel is so efficient in Europe that getting between cities is a breeze and/or renting a car when train travel isn't an option is also extremely easy.
2 - I always stay in the center of the city, in order to get a real feel for the vibe and identity of the place I decide to stay. Additionally, it's typically close to all the attractions and has the best food.
3 - When traveling abroad, I alway bring the local currency with me, make copies of my passport and take down all important credit card and phone numbers.
4 - When on a cruise, I always select a room in the middle of the ship (typically a room with a balcony) as that seems to be the best for not feeling motion sickness.
