meet mimi
Hi, I’m Mimi! I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA and am now living in the beautiful lowcountry of Charleston, SC. Growing up with a mom as a flight attendant and an adventurous dad, a love for travel was ingrained in me at a young age.
I’ve always been captivated by the beauty of seeing the world, the joy of discovering diverse places, cultures, and cuisines. This love of adventure is equally bolstered by a love of planning (I never miss the opportunity for a themed party!) and maximizing my time with friends and family. As you may have guessed, this means I find incredible joy in curating unique experiences around the world for others.
I look forward to helping you plan your next adventure, let's make it memorable!
Most memorable travel experience to date? I’m very fortunate to have several experiences to choose from, each of which has left a mark on my journey through life. Of note, at 19, I had a life-changing yoga retreat throughout Israel with a group of inspirational women (albeit strangers) from California. Images of floating in the Dead Sea, totally in a new world, come to mind.
Then there’s San Miguel De Allende… a place that holds a special place in my heart. Horseback riding through the canyons, face painting for the Day of the Dead celebration, bullfights, and a traditional chili rellenos cooking class- San Miguel has made a special impact on my life.
On the more active side, there’s hiking Delta Lake in Grand Tetons, fly fishing on a float down the Snake River, glamping in a ski-in-ski-out yurt in Colorado, riding a sidecar along the coast of Portugal, and all the incredible meals along the way…
Where do you dream of traveling next? An African safari is at the top of my list, but right behind that would be a trip through the champagne region on the beautiful Coquelicot, and last but not least, eating my way through Italy.
What makes a hotel stand out to you? Beautiful architecture, stunning location, and exceptional service!
What attracts you to travel somewhere? A fancy hotel? The culture? The culinary? Natural beauty? History? Well, it's a little bit of everything. Sure, a fancy hotel is nice, but what really makes a trip unforgettable for me is diving deep into the soul of a place. Being a total foodie, I can't resist sampling the local cuisine and soaking up the culinary traditions of wherever I am. But it's not just about the food—it's about connecting with the culture, chatting with locals, and taking in the natural beauty all around. Whether I'm exploring historic landmarks, hiking in stunning landscapes, or simply soaking up the vibe of a lively city, I'm all about immersing myself in the full experience of a destination.
