While sailing the beautiful turquoise Caribbean, cool drink in hand, we would help catch our fish of the day and have it prepared as a sashimi appetizer. Or, after a long day of walking the cobble-stone streets in a hidden Italian town we would stumble onto a new cafe filled with locals, and fall in love with the freshness of the pasta dish passed down for generations. These are just two memories that stand out in my mind. 

I have been preparing itineraries over 20 years.  Merging my passions for travel and cooking I created Culinary Latitudes Travel, an agency focused on crafting explorations for the enthusiastic traveler. I spend my workdays curating custom trips for people of all ages and different levels of travel experience, allowing them to take a break from it all with a truly exclusive and one of a kind experience.

Outside of work, I love…. to travel of course! My husband Jeff and I are determined to visit all continents by 2025 and next on the list is Antarctica and South America. I raised two beautiful children in Louisville, Colorado and then moved to Florida to be closer to my parents for a few years before returning to Colorado. With our blended families Jeff and I have 6 children and 8 grandchildren across the states. When I'm not traveling, you’ll find me loving life with my two big, crazy dogs and researching new recipes to cook together with my husband. 

Ah, but it was a cool creamy Limoncello on the mountainous Isle of Capri that caused me to want to permanently be on vacation. There is nothing quite like being submersed in the culture, sight-seeing, and learning about favorite spices from the local chefs first hand. From tequila tasting in Mexico, meeting local fishermen in New Zealand, sailing the warm waters of the Caribbean, devouring the freshest seafood in Santorini, and learning to cook in Thailand, to wherever our future culinary adventures take us...won't you join us on our next great feast?
