Services
I have accumulated a wealth of travel experience over the past 15+ years as an expat, backpacker, luxury travel agency employee, and digital nomad, as well as niche travel expertise in pet travel and literary travel.
Now, I’m sharing that knowledge with you. Here are my travel service offerings:
Trip Planning Services
With 15+ years of experience travelling and living overseas, as well as years working in the luxury travel industry, I am an expert when it comes to both the practical side of trip organisation and discovering unique or little-known travel experiences.

“Fun and Welcoming”
I really enjoyed the Bansko Nomad Book Club with Amy! It was such a fun and welcoming space to connect with fellow nomads and book lovers from all over the world. The group felt comfortable and engaging, and I loved being able to share, connect, and hear different perspectives. It’s the perfect way to stay connected with other readers while traveling.

“Cozy Vibe”
Amy’s book club is a great way to think deeper about the destinations you visit. I really enjoyed sharing my findings with others and seeing how certain themes played out in each place. The discussions are fun and insightful, and amy does great creating a cozy vibe for the group! Check it out if you can!
- Tej, USA
“Very Valuable”
I really enjoyed to see how passionate you’re about it and the fact you’ve acquired a lot of knowledge of different books that are specific to the place you’ve traveled and know we get to explore and discuss about these. I’d say is very valuable to connect with others and get first-head recommendations on books they’re reading and also benefited their lives.”

It’s complicated, it’s stressful, I’ve been there. Let me take some of that weight off your shoulders.
