The Story

IMG_1148.heic

If you’re looking for a different way to travel, you’ll find it here.
 

Explore itineraries, plan a trip, or travel alongside me.

Mending Miles Co. is rooted in my personal story, but it is not defined by it.

​

As someone who rebuilt her relationship to life through challenging seasons,

I came to understand how much travel can shape the way we return to ourselves.

​

I know what it’s like to be capable and resilient, yet still deeply tired.

Starting life over more than once taught me that changing the environments

I placed myself in could offer a real reset.

My Work

My work has taken me across the United States, Gabon, and Italy, always centered on bringing people together through food, culture, and shared experience.

​

I have hosted travelers, curated itineraries, and built experiences ranging from private events in restaurants to ecotourism stays in Gabon’s national parks, food culture tours in Libreville, and managing a home in Tuscany.

Mending Miles Today

Mending Miles is how I bring that work together today.

​

Through curated itineraries, I design trips you can move through on your own, with intention and ease.

​

Through travel companionship, I accompany those who want to experience a place without doing it alone.

​

Through small group journeys, I create shared experiences rooted in culture, food, and presence.
