Welcome to Intralingo Travel.
I’m a travel advisor with a deep love for Latin America—especially Peru, where I lived for seven years. My passion is helping curious, thoughtful travelers explore the heart and soul of a place—not just the sights. If you're looking for travel that moves you, teaches you, and helps you connect meaningfully with other cultures and people, we’re likely a great match.
I specialize in crafting personalized journeys across Latin America, particularly for Boomers and Gen Xers who still crave adventure but appreciate a slower pace and more comfort. Many of my clients travel with friends or family—multi-generational trips that become lifelong memories. I also work with Millennial and Gen Z travelers eager for authenticity, connection, and local insight. And I love curating small group trips for women 40+ who want to explore in community and return home inspired.
Because I lived for nearly a decade in Peru and Mexico, and have traveled extensively through Bolivia, Chile, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, and Belize, I bring not just knowledge, but personal connection to the region. I speak Spanish fluently and worked as a translator, which means I have access to hyper-local experiences and can even guide parts of your journey myself.
Whether you dream of trekking through the Andes, sailing the Amazon, savoring world-class cuisine in Lima, or simply soaking in the rhythm of daily life in a small village, I can make it happen. I once arranged a four-week journey through Peru for a couple in their 70s, blending iconic highlights with hidden gems—like a school visit in Cuzco and a table at Virgilio Martinez’s famed restaurant, MIL.
Beyond logistics, I offer something harder to define: true care. I’m a great listener and believe travel is deeply personal. Whether I’m helping you design the perfect itinerary or tracking down a lost phone for a stressed mom in a foreign airport (yes, that happened!), I’m in your corner.
When I’m not planning life-changing trips, I teach tai chi, lead a world literature book club, and cook global dishes from my home in Ottawa—where I live with my husband and our very opinionated cat.
Let’s plan a journey that opens your heart, shifts your perspective, and connects you more deeply to the world.
