Find me at the crossroads of travel and enjoyment. I've turned my love for travel and resorts into my full-time job. I specialize in group travel trips and have had the pleasure of taking people around the world from Panama, Italy, Spain, France all the way to Nigeria.

trip was amazing. very well organized and planned. the day time activities were perfect for exploring and getting a true feel of the culture. loved how all activity days included lunch, and how the 5 star hotel also included breakfast - helped with saving a lot of money during the trip. Everything was beautiful and seamless and i will definitely join future trips with Resort Anywhere
