I'm a young travel advisor with a lifelong love for exploring the world. Being at the beginning of my career means I approach every itinerary with fresh eyes, lots of enthusiasm, and plenty of attention to detail. I genuinely enjoy getting to know my clients and creating journeys that feel uniquely theirs. And yes... I might get just as excited about your trip as you do!

How did you get involved in travel?

"In my family, travel was never something ordinary. For my parents, it held a very special place in their hearts. It was more than vacations or trips-it was a way of experiencing life more fully, of understanding the world and the people in it. Somehow, I feel that this love was passed down to me almost genetically.

My parents often worked with travel agents because they truly believed that an experienced professional could help them discover hidden, meaningful places beyond the typical tourist routes. I remember how much thought and care went into planning every journey, and even then, I found myself fascinated by the process. There was something almost magical about creating deeply personal and unforgettable experiences for others, and that was when this path first began to inspire me.

From a very young age, my parents encouraged me to stay curious. They taught me to embrace new cultures, new places, and different ways of seeing the world. As I grew older, I realized that travel has the power to broaden perspectives, build empathy, and connect us to something much bigger than ourselves.

Today, I can't imagine my life without travel. Every time I create a journey for my clients, I feel as though I become part of their story. I don't simply organize a trip-I imagine every destination, every experience, and every unforgettable moment alongside them."

First, Alice was lovely to work with! She accommodated all of the changes we requested and proactively adjusted our itinerary to work around a general strike. All of our hotels were exactly what we had requested and the transportation options were perfect. The only bump in the trip was the Giants Causeway/ Game of Thrones excursion and my husband already provided Alice with feedback about that day.
We will use KimKim again and have recommended it to our friends and family!
