I created Traveling with Rachel because I know how overwhelming travel planning can feel—and because I’m a traveler myself.

Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Minnesota exploring the outdoors, took my first trip out of the country at 15, completed my first solo international adventure after college, and eventually moved to Colorado so adventure could always be right outside my door.

Since then, I’ve explored destinations across the U.S. and internationally—from Iceland’s Ring Road and six months traveling through Scotland, to Mexico, Italy, Greece, Belize, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, and beyond.

But travel has always meant more to me than checking places off a list. It’s about meaningful experiences, reconnecting with yourself, stepping outside your routine, and creating memories that stay with you long after you return home.

That’s the same mindset I bring to every client trip.

My approach is personal, supportive, and detail-oriented. I take time to understand what matters most to you so your vacation feels seamless, intentional, and unforgettable.

When I’m not planning travel, you’ll usually find me outdoors, trying a new local restaurant, dreaming about my next trip, or chasing experiences that make life feel a little bigger.
