My Story
A Paris-based, second-generation Expat whose wanderlust is genetic. Type A about planning your travel so you don’t have to be!
Travel Style
I’m a big fan of discovering new cultures and cities via “WED” traveling—Wander, Eat, and Drink. Uncovering hidden gems and experiences that let you feel like a local are my specialty. My itineraries range from adventure-packed schedules that keep you out of your I’m-only-here-to-sleep-hotel to luxury chateaux and villas that are so breathtaking you never want to leave the property. And regardless of the type of trip, you can guarantee that amazing food will be the North Star of any travel I plan.

Working with Layne has been the most positive planning experience I have ever had. Completely takes all the stress and hassle out of planning a vacation.

Our trip was well planned and provided insight and guidance to areas of interest in Paris we would not have known about otherwise. The included documents (tickets and directions) made our adventure in Paris simple and more enjoyable! Layne listened to our interests and planned a suitable and exciting itinerary. The two local guides that she engaged were knowledgeable and charming! Our booking experience was everything we could have hoped for!!

Layne was absolutely wonderful. She listened to what we wanted and she provided many options to us to make sure that this was an unforgettable trip. Everything went so smoothly and it was nice to just tell her what we wanted and she took care of everything. She was a pleasure to work with and she made what would normally be a stressful situation planning everything so seamless and we were so appreciative and grateful. Thank you so much, Layne!

So glad we got to work with you on this trip! It will definitely be one of the most memorable haha!! But Layne was so helpful and fun to work with! You had great recommendations and when we had to make some last minute changes you were so helpful in navigating all of it. Helped us to feel not as stressed and we could focus on still trying to enjoy ourselves while you helped with communication for us. We’re talking about our next trip soon! Just no dislocated shoulders this time (hopefully!!)

4 Day Girls Trip to Paris
Paris is, as of July 2023, my new home! I am in love with this beautiful city and all of its incredible food. While I've traveled to Paris in the past, living here as an expat, now gives me a unique perspective. I'm not a native, but I'm also not a tourist--and as a local, I can give you an insider's peek as to what's worth it, what's not, and some hidden gems to give you a Paris trip you'll never forget!

Milan Stopover: A 24 Hour Itinerary
Milan is a common layover city for European flights, so it's likely that you might end up with a short stay here, like I had recently. And I LOVED it! Milan was chic, vibrant and oh so delicious. It reminded me of the type of city that Vienna is, albeit slightly fancier. I packed as much sightseeing and good food into my 24-hour trip and left feeling accomplished--so here's my itinerary for you to copy the next time you're in Milan!
