About
European-born, rock-n-roll photographer with an affinity for travel. I'm always planning at least two trips at once in my head at any given time. I believe the planning process is part of the rush and excitement of travel, and I love to pass that on to my clients. I resonate with boutique hotels, romantic getaways, foodie tours, off-the-beaten path destinations and adventure travel.
Travel style
Kicking back on a sandy beach with a frozen colada in hand. Immersing myself in the rich centuries-old-history of Europe's greatest cities. Driving hours through hairpin turns and soaring mountains to catch the sunset at the best view point for miles. I'm honestly there for everything that'll make a beautiful photo and will make my heart beat just a little faster. I love good food, great cocktails and curated experiences.

Ana's reviews
I've said it once and I'll say it again. I cannot recommend Ana enough. I don't know how she does it but it feels like she truly tuned into my wants and needs for this booking experience and just did a phenomenal job with it. She's truly my go-to with anything and all travel related. If you're looking for a travel advisor to help you book an unforgettable experience, look no further. Ana has your back.

Ana was amazing throughout the whole process. It made this trip stress free and very smooth. She was there every step of the way and was very easy to contact during the trip. We had some last minute changes in which she helped a whole bunch and gave us a solution within minutes! Will most definitely be booking more and more trips with her!

Ana was great. I have used other travel agents, and she definitely was better than other ones I have used. Her communication was flawless. Her attention to detail in planning, listening to my wishes, executing the plan, organizing it, etc. - she is great at what she does. She afforded me the best opportunity to have a great trip!

We cannot say enough of our experience with Ana - she is phenomenal! My husband and I were looking for some guidance to plan our honeymoon, and Ana was exactly what we were looking for. From our first call, it was clear Ana is an Iceland expert by the questions she asked and her excitement around helping us. She got to know us, our budget and what we were looking to get out of our trip and she was with us (virtually) every step of the way. We gave her a handful of things we were interested in and with her other recommendations, we had planned the perfect trip. Her help in recommending hotels and booking them on our behalf was enormously helpful. We loved the app she suggested for our trip itinerary; it had everything we needed and it was fortunately easily updateable when things went a bit awry (such as cancelled flights!). She eased our minds with extremely quick answers to emails and always had a solution and knew what to do and say. Everything on our trip which Ana suggested was worth the hike, or drive - and the fun facts she had included in our itinerary led to really great discussions and learning. Ana was everything we hoped for and more! We can't wait to book our next trip with her!
