Happy New Year, My Friend!

As stated in the following article by Fortune.com, Winter travel, at the moment, is taking a bit of a hit amid the latest surge in COVID-19 cases due to the arrival of the new Omicron variant in the United States and Europe. And let's not talk about the flight cancellations that are happening right now. This has a lot of people rethinking their upcoming travel plans, both for business and pleasure.

However, travel and tourism industry professionals are actually expecting quite the rebound this year. The outlook is bright as travel bans lift, testing access expands and confidence in vaccines rise. Although we are not out of the woods just yet, we have learned to adapt. Safety protocols for travel (domestically and abroad) are in place, allowing you to continue with your travel plans as risk-free as can be at the time you book but those protocols are changing constantly. So, in order to have to most up to date information as possible prior to your departure, it's best to work a Travel Advisor when planning your getaway. We stay on top of the constantly changing protocols, so you don't have to.

My husband and I recently returned from a glorious end-of-the-year retreat in Cabo San Lucas with my amazing team.

We stayed at the wonderful resort, LeBlanc Spa Resort-Los Cabos! This resort is the definition of adults only, all-inclusive luxury. It has all the bells and whistles discerning clients would want- ultra-luxe amenities, exquisite flavors, and amazing settings beyond your imagination.

You can leave the details in the capable hands of your expert butler and focus on enjoying the resort. Your butler will unpack your bags, plan your day, or even draw a luxurious bath for you using some delicious smelling bath salts. The food and beverage selections are unparalleled, using the freshest ingredients to go along with a fantastic selection of wine and spirits. All this while taking in the amazing views the Sea of Cortez has to offer.

We witnessed the majesty of giant humpback whales during a private sunset sail with Cabo Adventures! We also participated in a culinary experience for our group at Flora Farms. Our group enjoyed an interactive cooking class, crafting delicious home-made tamales accompanied by other locally sourced accoutrements which we also created, i.e., salsa and guacamole with chips, of course!

While the sailing was previously sold out, a few cabin spaces just opened up! Act fast before they're gone! Join my group and have an amazing trip to look forward to in 2022!

Travel to France’s legendary wine capital, Bordeaux. Iconic châteaux, timeless vineyards and delicious wine tastings are plentiful as you visit Libourne, Blaye, Bourg, Pauillac and Cadillac. This trip is a must for anyone interested in the best of French culture, lifestyle, wine and food.

The last two years in the pandemic have taught us many life lessons. One of the biggest ones being the importance of travel and leisure in creating a balanced, fulfilled life.

And some new trends are appearing as result! Trip-stacking, workcations and luxury all-inclusives are all on the rise this year.

Wedding season typically spans from late spring to early fall, but as couples reschedule their nuptial plans from 2020/2021 for the 2022 season you need to book your trips early!

This year alone I am traveling to the following wedding destinations, not to mention the weddings I don't have to travel for...but I'm excited for everyone who finally gets the chance to tie the knot!

Do NOT wait to book your wedding season trips. Hotels are filling up faster than ever and prices are rising to accommodate the demand.

I'm also available to help the bride and groom plan their honeymoon!

“Last weekend my daughter decided that she wanted to go to Italy for her birthday.

Using Wendy as our travel agent and go-to, by Friday the trip was booked. Wendy was fantastic doing all the legwork, asking all the right questions and handling all of the back and forth! Would highly recommend using her for your travel needs – regardless of where you’d like to go!”
