Listen first.
Before hotels, flights and restaurant reservations, figure out what the traveler actually wants the days to feel like.
ABOUT / THE PERSON BEHIND THE PLAN
HUMAN BEING. ACTUAL EMAIL ADDRESS.
THERE IS AN ACTUAL PERSON BEHIND THIS.
01 / MEET YOUR ADVISOR
Algorithms are wonderful. They have never personally argued with a hotel about your room.
01
HELLO, ACTUAL HUMAN
MEET JORDAN. FICTIONAL ADVISOR. REAL POINT.
Replace Jordan with your own story, specialties, certifications and destination knowledge.
This demo advisor has been talking about travel since approximately 2019 and has developed a healthy suspicion of 38-minute international connections, hotels described only as “convenient,” and itineraries that require waking up before the bakery does.
02
THE SHORT VERSION
THOUGHTFUL, DETAILED AND DEEPLY SUSPICIOUS OF BAD CONNECTIONS.
- Specialties
- Europe, Caribbean, honeymoons, custom international travel
- Planning style
- Thoughtful, detailed and allergic to unnecessary itinerary gymnastics
- Favorite kind of trip
- The one where everybody knows enough to relax but nobody has a laminated minute-by-minute schedule
- Best part of the job
- Turning “maybe Italy?” into an actual Tuesday in Italy

THE PLANNING PHILOSOPHY
THE TRIP SHOULD FEEL BETTER THAN THE RESEARCH.
Otherwise we have simply moved your job to another country.
Edit aggressively.
Just because something can fit into the itinerary does not mean it deserves to.
Protect the good parts.
Long lunches, slow mornings and accidental discoveries are not scheduling failures.
Know the details.
Transfers, timing, reservations and all the tiny logistical nonsense should be handled before it becomes your problem.
04
WHEN SOMETHING GETS WEIRD
YOU SHOULD KNOW WHO TO CALL.
Personal planning means somebody understands the trip as a whole rather than treating each booking like an unrelated transaction.
Flight changed? Hotel confused? Transfer vanished into another dimension? At least you are not beginning the investigation from seventeen confirmation emails and a screenshot.
05
COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY DETAILS
YES, THERE ARE OPINIONS.
This is where the real advisor can add personality without writing a memoir.
HOTEL BREAKFAST
Underrated when it means nobody has to make a decision before coffee.
RED-EYE FLIGHTS
Occasionally useful. Never emotionally neutral.
GROUP CHATS
A beautiful place where six adults can fail to answer one question for three days.
“HIDDEN GEMS”
Usually no longer hidden after appearing in fourteen thousand TikToks.
