WELCOME!!! We are Janet and Stuart

Ask yourself, how did your last travel experience make you feel?  Were you inspired, relaxed, invigorated, free?  This is what we focus on and, we hope, is most important to you and us – the experience. 

Whether you are on tour, a cruise, backpacking through Europe, or staying at an inclusive resort – how did you feel when you came home.

For example, when our son had his bar mitzvah, we took 26 family members and friends, who were either Jewish or Christian, on a 12-day adventure around Israel.  Each day was full of sightseeing, shopping, and eating. 

Key moments, like sailing on the Sea of Galilee, praying at the Wall in the Kotel, standing on Masada, floating in the Dead Sea, or walking along the Via Dolorosa, triggered emotions within each of us.  Everyone said that this was the experience/trip of a lifetime…never to be repeated.  This is what travel is all about – the experience!

Guess where we are? Entering the city of Jerusalem.  A photo of a camel relaxing with the city of Jerusalem behind him.

Meet the Team – Your Go-To Travel Advisors

We are Janet and Stuart, and we have a passion for travel. I am the planner, while Stuart is the practical thinker always finding ways to make travel affordable.  Our sons, Elijah and Aaron, and our daughter-in-law, Karly, help share in contributing to our blog as we travel together, or separately, throughout the world.

Meet the travel advisors - Janet, Stuart, Elijah, Aaron and Karly in Colorado.

Immersing ourselves in a destination, and living like a local, adds so much to the adventure.  Experiencing the culture, the food, and the people is what travel is all about to us.

Education and the need to continuously learn is important to us too.  I completed the Travel Advisor Proficiency (TAP) course. Monthly I attend numerous travel advisor webinars to expand my knowledge in the travel industry.

In 2024, we took our first riverboat cruise down the Rhine, Main and Danube, starting in Amsterdam and ending in Budapest. 

Each year, we plan a family trip, during the Christmas holidays, for 12 to 20 family members.  We have cruised together and rented homes in the U.S. and Europe, all while exploring the visited regions. 

In 2006, we purchased a home in Southern Italy and, in 2011, a home in Southwest Florida.  Our stories about these adventures, are shared in our Naples to Napoli page.  

Travel blogging is a work in process as we continually add more content to our website.  We write about the places that we have actually visited in person. If you would like to contact us for travel planning or advice, please complete the form on our Travel Planning page.

We are here to assist in helping prepare your travel itineraries and provide tips and advice on things that we have learned along the way. Our team will do the research so that you can relax and enjoy your trip knowing that you are not going to miss a thing.

Safe travels…and let us help you have some great memories and experiences!
