Hi, I’m Jeremy! I'm a travel planner who brings first-hand experience from 30+ countries into every itinerary and trip I plan. I’ve spent the past several years as a full-time traveler, living the “digital nomad” lifestyle and learning the ins and outs of travel destinations in South America, Southeast Asia, and Europe. I've lived in places like Mexico City, Indonesia, Croatia, Brazil, and many more. My on-the-ground experience means I know more than what shows up in a ChatGPT question or Google search. I know the hidden gem towns, local food spots that will blow your mind, and all the tips and tricks that will allow you to have a trip that is smooth and easy. I’m also a Fora-Certified travel advisor, which gives me access to an extensive travel agent network. That means VIP perks, upgrades, and insider connections at some of the world’s best hotels and resorts. And when you’re on your trip, I’m available as your concierge support. So, if plans change or you want a last-minute adjustment, I’ve got you covered. What I can help with: - Full itineraries (balanced with both structure & free time) - Flights, accommodations, and transportation - Local tours, excursions & food recommendations - Group trips, honeymoons, and bucket-list adventures - Simple research & trip planning support - Concierge assistance during your trip Why work with me? Unlike many travel advisors, I’ve actually lived it. I know how to design a trip that feels smooth, exciting, and fulfilling because I do it for myself and my clients every day. I can help you avoid tourist traps and common planning headaches. Whether it’s a honeymoon, a work trip, or an around-the-world adventure, I’ll handle the details so you can focus on enjoying the experience. I also freelance as a copywriter and blogger, writing website copy, travel content, and sports blogs. If you need sharp, engaging writing for your brand or publication, I'd love to work together.
