Who We Are

I’m Dr. A, founder of Destination & Travel Junkies. I have a passion for travel and teaching people how to explore the world, and I help them turn “one day I’ll travel” into “I can’t believe I actually did that.”

Growing up, my travel mainly was church trips and school field trips. I promised myself that when I had a family, I’d expose them—and others—to the world: new countries, cities, and cultures beyond what I experienced as a child.

With over 15 years of experience planning domestic and international vacations and cruises, I’ve helped travelers go from overwhelmed and unsure to confidently boarding flights they once only dreamed about.

What sets us apart is our commitment to genuinely getting to know you. We don’t just book trips—we craft experiences that stay with you long after you return home. We thrive on uncovering fascinating cultures and curating unique experiences.

 At Destination & Travel Junkies, we:

  • Design well-planned trips—not cookie-cutter packages

  • Take time to get to know you, your comfort level, and your must-haves

  • Curate unique, culture-rich experiences that fit your budget and travel personality

Whether you’re a first-time traveler, planning a couples’ retreat, or organizing a group trip, you’re not doing it alone. You have a partner in your corner from the first idea to the return flight home.
