Allison — Alli to everyone who knows her — is a dual citizen of the US and the UK who grew up between two worlds: California during the school year, and the UK and western Europe through every summer and holiday. Travel was woven into family life from the very beginning, and that early curiosity about the world remains her greatest passion to this day.
After college, she bought a one-way ticket to Thailand and spent years exploring Southeast Asia — Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Japan, and Indonesia. Back in the States, she set her sights on Central and South America, traveling for months at a time through work-exchange programs, with Guatemala, Costa Rica, and Peru among her favorites. When the pandemic hit, she packed up the car and her dog and drove three days south to Todos Santos, Mexico, where she spent nine months watching the turtles and the whales and waiting for the world to come back online. Once it did, she planned an epic three-month European journey through Germany, Italy, France, and Spain.
Allison is genuinely passionate about creating bespoke itineraries and sharing her love of travel with others — turning a lifetime of firsthand exploration into trips designed entirely around you. When she’s not on an adventure or at her desk, you’ll find her exploring Charleston’s restaurants, catching live music, taking her dog to the city’s waterfront parks, or trying out a new recipe at home.
