There’s something deeply healing about stepping off a plane and into warm sun. A moment where you exhale fully, knowing someone else has handled every detail. That’s the kind of travel I wanted to create, the kind that gives you space to rest, connect, and actually enjoy the journey.

Welcome to And So We Roam, a travel agency built for women who do it all and need a break from having to plan it all.

What We Do

And So We Roam is a full-service travel agency that helps women plan unforgettable trips of all kinds, solo adventures, romantic getaways, family vacations, honeymoons, and more. Whether you know exactly where you want to go or need help figuring it out, I’ll work with you to design something beautiful, thoughtful, and aligned with your style and pace.

But this brand is also something more. It’s a space where curated women’s escapes come to life, group trips designed for connection, rest, and adventure. These are not your typical party-packed tours or yoga retreats. They’re elevated, intimate, and designed with intention. From handpicked boutique hotels to memorable experiences and welcome touches, every trip is thoughtfully planned so all you have to do is show up.

Why I Started And So We Roam

For years, I was the one who planned the trips, for my family, my friends, my coworkers. I genuinely loved it. The research, the excitement, the puzzle pieces that make a trip unforgettable. But I also realized how exhausting travel planning can be for most people, especially women who are already managing so much.

I created And So We Roam to give women an easier way to experience the world. I wanted to take the pressure off. To make planning feel seamless. To design escapes that feel like freedom, not another task on the list.

Who It’s For

This is for the woman who always ends up making the plans, even when she’s the one who needs the break the most. It’s for the solo traveler who’s tired of sifting through reviews at midnight. For the overwhelmed mom trying to plan a vacation that doesn’t feel like another job. For the corporate professional who needs to log off and recharge. And for the women who crave sisterhood and want to experience travel as a reset, not a race.

What’s Next

You can work with me in two ways:

Custom Trip Planning: I’ll help you design a fully personalized trip, no matter the destination, group size, or budget. From flights and stays to dining and excursions, I take care of every detail so you don’t have to.
Curated Group Trips for Women: These limited-space escapes are designed for women who want to explore new places without the hassle of organizing a thing. Think sun-soaked destinations, stylish stays, meaningful connection, and surprise moments along the way. No stress. No planning. Just show up and roam.
