LUXURY TRAVEL CURATOR, TRAVEL AGENT & BLOGGER 

This has taken a lot of calories and time seating around the world wining & dinning. Sharing with you some of my favorite restaurants experiences around the globe. Bon Appetite. !!!
Over 25 years of travel experience precede me, earning the mote of “Little Marco Polo”. Jetsetter-Bonvivant, I curate the world of Luxury Travel & Lifestyle by experience, one destination at the time. 

Luxury, has so many interpretations. I believe, it is most authentic, when understood beyond the obvious. It all comes down to one individual’s expectations and needs. My luxury, is measured by rarity and sophistication, access to destinations, services, individuals and experiences, which go beyond the mere concept of self-indulgence.
