The Fear of a Life Without Travel

Travel with me!


Like me, are you always dreaming of your next trip?    Are you a bit overwhelmed by where to start?  Let me be your travel coach!  I specialize in planning trips to the countries that are a little off the beaten track.  Simply tell me your budget, roughly where you would like to go and how you would like to get there.

Why choose me?

  • I have visited over 150 countries and have covered all 7 continents.   I did most of these as a solo, budget traveler.
  • I have lived and worked on 4 continents which has enabled me to develop expertise across many regions.
    • Europe? Yes!
    • Asia? Yes!
    • Latin America? Yes!
    • Oceania!  Yes, yes, yes!
  • Unlike other independent travel consultants, wherever you want to go in the world, I have got you covered.

Simply drop me an email at notripophobia@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
