Hi, I'm Lilan
As your dedicated travel planner, I help busy individuals like you save time and energy by taking the reigns on designing your custom vacation, keeping your preferences in mind every step of the way.
My Story
My earliest travel memories include my first trip abroad to Vietnam, my mom’s home country, where we spent an entire sweltering summer visiting with my grandmother when I was 11 years old. That summer I learned how to better speak my native language, eat and cook my family’s Vietnamese cuisine, and take in so many beautiful sights. It was amazing to experience my culture firsthand and be immersed in such a different world.
Since then I have been blessed to be able to explore and travel throughout my life, with stops in Europe, Asia, Mexico, the Caribbean and lots of U.S cities with my husband and daughter over the years. And now, I want to help others plan trips to their dream destinations so they can create the same, wonderful memories with their loved ones.

A Few fun facts
get to know me
01.
I love traveling with our young daughter. I believe that exploring different places and cultures is the key to learning about the world and those in it to create shared experiences.
02.
I will try almost anything once.
I love looking at menus and ordering dishes with ingredients I've never tasted before.
03.
I am slightly obsessed with checking out local grocers, farmer's markets and convenience stores to see what kinds of snacks the locals love to eat.
04.
My daughter loves k-pop culture and I'm a k-beauty enthusiast - it's a no-brainer that South Korea is on our short list of bucket list destinations.

On a dare, I completed a full marathon one summer in Alaska. Since then I've recommended it to everyone as a must-travel destination!
