Why I Love Hosting Girls’ Trips—and What I’ve Learned Along the Way
Sometimes I pause and think about the women who have joined me on my trips. Women from all over the U.S., many traveling to Europe for the very first time, trusting me with their time, energy, and investment. That trust is something I don’t take lightly, and I feel incredibly grateful to witness their excitement, curiosity, and openness.
Travel doesn’t always happen at the same time for everyone. Some join as solo travelers, stepping out of their comfort zone. Others come with friends who want a fully planned experience. And many are looking to meet like-minded women, to share experiences, laughter, and conversation with people they might never have met otherwise. It’s fascinating to see how these different journeys all come together on a single trip, creating a dynamic and supportive group energy.
I’ve even had two sisters join—both with children and busy schedules, who don’t often get time just for themselves. Watching them reconnect on the trip, laugh together, and make new friendships along the way was such a special reminder of why these experiences matter. Moments like that—simple, yet profound—are what make hosting so rewarding.
One of my favorite parts of these trips is incorporating wine tourism. It’s never just about the wine itself—it’s about the stories behind it, the people who make it, and the region it comes from. Tasting a wine where it’s grown, learning about the traditions and terroir, and connecting with local producers creates experiences that go far beyond a simple glass. These moments spark conversation, laughter, and connection among the group, giving women the chance to bond over something cultural, meaningful, and unique.
“Travel doesn’t just show you the world, it shows you how much there is to learn about yourself and others.”
Hosting these trips has taught me so much—not just about travel, but about connection, trust, and the joy of sharing meaningful experiences. I love hearing feedback, learning where people dream of going, and helping them imagine their own journeys. Whether it’s a chat about a potential trip or guidance for planning an adventure, I’m always happy to connect.
It’s a privilege to create these moments and watch women explore, connect, and make memories that last long after the trip ends. These trips are more than just travel—they’re experiences that bring people together, build friendships, and create stories worth remembering. Thanks for reading!
