We believe the height of luxury is being unburdened and unbothered.
Welcome to the antidote to the Family Industrial Complex. We architect the unburdening so you can finally find your pulse again.
One Silly Goose
“When I grow up, I want to travel the world, take pictures, and have hot affairs.”
The Narrative: At the tender age of nine, I confidently declared my life goal was a "hot affair." While I certainly didn't grasp the literal meaning then, the hunger for excitement and adventure was intoxicating—fueled by eavesdropping on my mom’s bunco nights. Fast-forward nearly 40 years and 40 countries later, and while my itinerary isn’t quite filled with "hot affairs," the path I’ve pursued has been nothing short of thrilling. It taught me exactly how to help you find your own version of that thrill.
The "Marrow" Miner: My path to travel wasn’t accidental; it was academic. Armed with degrees in Anthropology and Sociology, I don’t just "visit" destinations—I embed myself in them. I am a curious explorer driven to find the lore behind the mist and the goodness in the people who tend it. This ensures your travel isn't just about seeing sights, but about mining the marrow of a place and weaving connections that transcend borders.
The Radical Reprieve: But let’s be real: Travel is also about sheer, unadulterated joy. It’s about the radical reprieve of unwinding in a stunning locale, twirling with strangers on a dance floor, and laughing so hard your sides ache. And the flavors! From spicy tacos in Mexico to savory dumplings in Taiwan, I believe every bite tells a story.
I bring this spirit of adventure, deep connection, and pure delight to every Master Plan I architect.

Childfree Is For Me
“This archaic idea - that a woman who is unmarried and childless at 30 is somehow unnatural - will probably always exist, and, like most social standards, it is ridiculous.”
Choosing whether or not to have children is a deeply personal decision. As the saying goes, "not everything is for everybody." So, let's leave the judgment behind and focus on the joy of individual choices, because life's too precious for negativity.
Unfortunately, childfree travelers often face misunderstandings. "Selfish," "incomplete," "morally lacking"—sound familiar? Especially for women, the questions are relentless: "How many kids do you have?" "When are you having them?" "Why not yet?" It's exhausting. But it's time to change the narrative.
The travel industry often overlooks the childfree. We're bombarded with images of family vacations, smiling parents and wide-eyed kids. Honeymoons, boozy spring breaks, and Vegas getaways are great, but where's the adventure designed for us? Where's the vacation tailored to the vibrant, childfree soul?
That's where I step in. Consider me the expert in childfree travel! Whether you've chosen this path, life has led you here, or you simply need a break from the tiny humans, I see you. I understand you. And I'm here to craft the perfect getaway, designed just for you.
Approachable Luxury
“Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it’s not luxury.”
At Follow the Goose Travel, we believe true luxury isn't about posh resorts or hefty price tags. It's a feeling, a state of mind that's uniquely yours to claim. It's comfort, freedom, and experiences perfectly tailored to your journey, not someone else's definition of extravagance.
Our curated getaways are designed to be your personal "love letters" to life. Imagine swirling a glass of fine wine, sharing laughter and tales, toasting to the sheer joy of being alive. Your travel experience with us is always rich and satisfying, creating indelible memories, no matter what you're wearing or where you’ve been.
True luxury should never come with pretense or snootiness. We believe in redefining it on your terms. Whether you envision a lavish escape or need the flexibility of a payment plan (yes, we've got your back on that!), your perfect journey awaits. Picture a sparkling champagne welcome, or a serene retreat where only the breeze whispers your name. Perhaps your bliss is the best ballpark hotdog as the crowd roars, a Bavarian lager served with a hearty "Prost!", or simply delightful poolside drinks enjoyed with a warm smile. Whatever your preference, we craft the exact recipe for your tailored getaway.
No matter how you choose to indulge, I'm here to turn your travel fantasies into reality. With Follow the Goose Travel, every itinerary is meticulously crafted with personalized flair and stress-free planning.
