Amateur Italian, travel advisor, and adventurous eater! I’m a travel creative living in small town northern Italy, and I've been planning travel for over 15 years. I've lived on three continents and visited over 40 countries, so I'm passionate about helping travelers experience the best of a location, no matter where! I love both/and travel: I want to see the big sights AND the local hangouts, the big cities AND the small towns. I’d love to help you do it too! If you’re going to Rome for the first time, you don’t need me to tell you to see the Colosseum. But you might want me to tell you if it’s better as a guided tour or on your own, what add-on’s are worth the money, and what are the extra secret things your ticket can get you! My favorite part of travel is eating well: finding the local haunts, tasting a new wine, and trying the local dishes. Amazing food doesn't have to be expensive: sometimes the best of a place is in the street food! But if it is a splurge, I'll make sure it's worth every penny. I'd love to work with you to create the trip of your dreams!

Hi! I’m G., Travel and dessert lover. I love discovering new places, whether it's a busy city or a hiking trail or road-triping and camping.

In relation to cuisine, I specialize in desserts, vegetarian, and vegan food. I have lived in Estonia and currently live in Greece. I spend my time creating content and working remotely.

Hi! I'm Lucy, the type-A, overly organized, travel enthused person behind Getaway Goose. I'm everyone's favorite travel companion because I'm that friend. The one who plans a trip down to the minute. The one who has thought of everything, packed everything, and wants to do everything. As my dad put it so eloquently in his Father of the Bride speech, "if you want to have a good vacation, just have Lucy go there first." I specialize in incredibly detailed travel itineraries that ensure you get the most bang for your buck and most experiences for your travel time on every single trip. You can expect detailed timings along with any and all pre-trip arrangement information to guarantee every second of your trip is spent in vacation-mode not the black hole of "what do we do?", "where do we eat?", and "when should we go?" My husband is my most frequent travel companion, but I am no stranger to planning trips for large groups of people, and all of my plans could also be modified for solo or family travel with children. I hope you'll count me as your newest travel buddy and enjoy all the adventures I have to share!
