Liv here!
At 23, I married my high school sweetheart, Jack. Our adventures have taken us to cities as big as London, England, and towns as remote as Modica, Sicily. We've lived, worked, and traveled all over Europe with a special focus on Italy, France, and the UK.
In August of last year, we decided to make Seattle our home base. It’s a city we grew to know and love after 5 years of annual visits.
Nowadays, we spend our days exploring Washington and traveling abroad— we’re always looking for our next adventure.
We specialize in modern, mindful travel guides, curated recommendations, and custom itineraries and always try to incorporate:
