- Born in Philippines
Born in the Philippines and raised in the U.S., I’ve always felt at home in diverse cultures. Having traveled to 32 countries, my passion for travel deepened while living in Spain, where I embraced the culture and spent weekends uncovering Europe’s hidden gems. Later, I spent many months in Southeast Asia—diving with vibrant sea life in Thailand and exploring the mountains of Vietnam.
I’m drawn to off-the-beaten-path adventures, untouched nature, and peaceful coastal escapes—always with a touch of luxury. Whether I’m traveling myself or planning a journey for others, I love thinking creatively to curate experiences that feel personal and meaningful—not just a a country ticked off the list.
