Itineraries
Let me help you plan your next trip! With Ventures and Life with VAL, you can discover new and exciting destinations without any of the stress and hassle of figuring out all the logistics. I'll work with you to create an itinerary that fits your budget and travel preferences. Step one - 1:1 Call/Zoom/Email During this step I will collect vital information to help me understand your goals for this trip. You will help me visualize what type of vibe you're going after, any must see’s and/or do’s, and your budget. Within 48 hours of this call, you will receive a contract and a deposit for service will due. The remainder of your balance will be due when your personally curated recommendations have been sent. Step two - Recommendations At Ventures and Life with VAL, I prioritize your safety and security while traveling. I want you to have the best trip possible and I will make recommendations based on where I would personally stay. I am not a travel agent, so my recommendations are rooted what I feel will truly give you the experience you are looking for and not who is giving me the biggest commission.

ABOUT
I'm a high school librarian who loves traveling. When school is not in session, I am out exploring new places and activities. I love paddleboarding, going to the beach, snowboarding, food and wineries and breweries. When I travel, I like to have a nice balance of bucket list checks- you know - all the touristy stuff, but I also love going off the beaten path and experiencing life like the locals. I want YOU to have those experiences too! I've lived in multiple places in Virginia most of my life, having spend the last 17 years in Fredericksburg, Va, so I am conveniently located close to everything Virginia has to offer. Follow me on Insta for more travel inspiration! @ventures_and_life_with_val
