Let’s start with the basics. I’m Madeleine—raised in a small town in South Dakota, but wired for the world.
I grew up in an international family where “vacation” meant 20 cousins packed around a table in Rome, getting stung by scorpions with my uncle in Costa Rica, or tracing my Dad's childhood footsteps through backstreets in Germany. Travel wasn’t just a luxury—it was bloodline, tradition, and the best kind of education.
Since then, I’ve chased flavors, stories, and strangers-turned-friends across continents. My passport's well-worn, my standards are high, and my obsession with authenticity runs deep. I believe in travel that’s felt—through spice on your tongue, grit on your boots, and a moment that reminds you exactly why you left home in the first place.
When I’m not building unforgettable itineraries, you’ll find me dancing (I teach kids, which keeps me honest), exploring outdoors, or hunting down the next delicious snacks.
If you’re looking for a trip that feels curated but untamed—luxury with bite—you’re in the right place.
