Two people. One club.

Meet the people behind the club

I was born in Illinois, USA, grew up in Medellín, Colombia, and then spent over forty years in the United States before following my Spanish roots across the ocean to Valencia, Spain — and honestly, I haven't looked back once. I've always been that friend. You know the one. The person who finds the little hotel nobody's heard of, the restaurant that isn't on any list, the back road that saves you two hours and happens to pass through a village you'll never forget. Some of my favorite memories aren't from the famous landmarks. They're from the unplanned moments. The afternoon in Bolivia when our bus broke down and a local family invited us in for the most incredible homemade lunch I've ever had. The night in Cuba when we stumbled into a neighborhood celebration and danced until the sun came up. The morning in the Swiss Alps when the fog lifted just enough to reveal a valley so quiet you could hear the cows' bells echoing across the mountains. That's what travel is to me — not a checklist, but a collection of moments that only happen because you said yes. I've been planning trips for friends and family for as long as I can remember. At some point I realized — wait, I'm already running a travel agency, I just never gave it a name. Before all this, I spent fifteen-plus years in real estate. I got my license in 2008, opened my own brokerage in 2017, and ended up managing properties and multi-family housing. I'm a certified Home Staging Specialist and Distressed Property Expert, and I've picked up my share of "top producer" awards. All those years negotiating deals, juggling contractors and lenders, making sure every single detail actually works? Turns out that's exactly the skill set you need to curate boutique hotels and build trip itineraries. I hold degrees in Civil Engineering and Transportation Engineering from NJIT, spent eleven years in consulting before pivoting to real estate, and I'm fluent in both Spanish and English. But here's what I really believe: the best trips aren't about the five-star rating. They're about the long lunch that nobody wanted to end.

I was born and raised in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic until moved to the United States after marriage. Being a military wife, life took us to lots of places, so I became the gatherer and planner, to get to know new people and make friends. I'm the friend who turns a random Tuesday into a dinner party. I've been bringing people together my whole life — planning events, organizing trips, introducing friends who never would have met otherwise. I learned early on that the best part of any place isn't the place — it's the people you're with. Some of my favorite memories aren't from the big sights. They're from the moments in between. The night in Puerto Rico when a stranger at a bar invited our whole group to a family BBQ. The afternoon in Italy when we got lost and found the best party of our lives. The morning in Ireland when the rain cleared just long enough for us to see the cliffs. That's what travel is to me — not a checklist, but a collection of moments that only happen because you showed up. I spent decades organizing trips for friends and family before I ever called it a business. My career took me from selling advertising in the Dominican Republic, to digital advertising in California, USA, to running social media for resorts in San Juan, Puerto Rico, to building things nobody had tried in the cruise industry at Celebrity Cruises and Royal Caribbean in Florida, USA. Twenty years in hospitality and travel taught me something simple: people don't remember the itinerary — they remember how they felt. I still get excited about the small stuff — talking to a random person I met at a bus, the trip story that makes someone think, "I want to be there and experience that." I studied marketing with a specialization in social media and a minor in communications at SNHU, graduated Magna Cum Laude, and I'm CSPO, CSM, and PLC certified. But what I really care about? Building a club that feels less like a business and more like the group chat you actually want to be in.
