Elizabeth enjoys connecting with people on a genuine level and learning what excites them most about travel and the world. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Social Psychology with a minor in Art History. Before she joined Enchanting Travels, she worked as a sales manager for a farm-based seed company.
With a deep passion for travel, endless curiosity and the joy she derives from experiencing other cultures, Elizabeth embodies the spirit of a travel consultant perfectly. Having traveled to several places, she brings her first-hand, in-depth knowledge of destinations to her role. She strives to understand the needs, wants, and aspirations of her guests entirely before putting together the most incredible experiences for them.
The running joke among her friends and family is that if Elizabeth is not traveling, she’s likely dreaming about travel. She is most happy wandering through narrow streets in small neighborhoods just to feel the buzz of daily life, visiting a museum or gallery, popping into a cafe or restaurant that catches her eye or just people watching. Her favorite trips include a cross country trip from California to Vermont, exploring Istanbul and the southern coast of Turkey, Eastern Europe, Ireland, Portugal, Morocco, Peru and the UK. She plans on visiting Japan and Thailand next.
MOST ENCHANTING TRAVEL
My favorite trips include a long awaited journey through Japan; exploring Istanbul and the coasts of Turkey; a month long honeymoon through Eastern Europe; driving through Ireland; a combination trip to Portugal & Morocco; spotting the Northern Lights in Iceland; eating her way through Peru and staying in a castle during an whirlwind trip through the UK. I’m planning on visiting Southeast Asia & India next hopefully!
It’s OK to get uncomfortable when traveling sometimes. It can open up new experiences you didn’t even know you were looking for.
