Thank you for visiting our website!  My husband, Duke, and I have been married for 37 years, and have seen all four of our children grow into adults.  We have even been blessed recently with four grandchildren.  Our family travels have taken us to most of the Caribbean Islands, Alaska, Mexico, Canada, Morocco, Greece, Oman, Australia, Israel, Italy, and other European countries.  In fact, one of our sons has lived in places like Spain, Ireland, Anguilla, Nassau, and South Africa. If we personally haven't traveled to a destination yet, I'm sure we know of someone who has.  We are proud to be able to give you that personal attention in finding the right location for your next adventure.

I originally started my career working for a travel agency on a part time basis which lasted for 3 years.  My husband, Duke, and I spent the next 3 years in a store front agency that we bought into.  I saw the need to give more personal care to my clients so we sold the store front, and started a new agency in our home.  We have been going strong since then and it has been 13 years. 

Thanks again for visiting our web site, and we look forward to working with you.
