The World Like a Local
Let me design your next getaway so you can experience the Wild Wonder of travel.
Whether you're dreaming of a romantic escape, a family adventure, a multi-generational journey, or a trip with friends, I’ll design it around you. I create thoughtful, immersive travel experiences, from incredible food and local culture to wildlife, adventure, and stays that feel just right, while taking care of the research, logistics, and details behind the scenes.
YOUR KIND OF WONDER
Savor the flavors. Seek the adventure. Stay in style.
EXPLORE
The World is Waiting
Almost 80 countries. All seven continents. Infinite possibilities.
You don't have to know exactly where you want to go—or even what your perfect trip looks like yet. Sometimes that's what we figure out together. Tell me what makes you curious, what you love, and how you want to feel when you travel. I'll help you find the destinations and experiences that bring your own Wild Wonder to life.
From immersive cultural journeys and unforgettable wildlife adventures to family travel, group trips, and completely custom-designed escapes, every journey is thoughtfully created around you. Maybe you're dreaming of a safari in Africa, tasting your way through Europe, exploring the temples and markets of Southeast Asia, or venturing to the wild edges of Antarctica. Wherever your curiosity takes you, let's design a travel experience you'll be talking about for years to come.

Meet Nelle
Always Dreaming of What’s Next
I live in Bend, Oregon—and that’s where my roots are planted. But my wings? Those keep me dreaming of the next cuisine to taste, the next world wonder to explore, and the next culture to be inspired by.
Having traveled to almost 80 countries across all seven continents, I bring firsthand experience, deep industry knowledge, and a genuine curiosity about the world to every journey I design.
Your Wonder
What is your
Wild Wonder?
A Wild Wonder isn't just a place you visit—it's the experience that makes you stop, smile, and see the world in a whole new way.
My Wild Wonder is tasting the most perfect falafel in Egypt—seriously, I didn’t know it could be that crispy and fluffy. It’s seeing an orca pod teaching its young how to hunt off the shores of Antarctica. Standing in front of Angkor Wat and not knowing where to explore first. Looking into the eyes of an infant gorilla in the jungles of Uganda. It’s exploring the expansive salt flats of Bolivia in an otherworldly landscape I didn’t know existed. Climbing the cliffs of Norway and looking out over thousands of miles of fjords and water. E-biking through the French countryside and stopping to sip a perfect Bordeaux.
Whatever your Wild Wonder is—I'd love to get you there!
