Some trips are about checking places off a list.
Storybound Journeys are about being there--fully, comfortably, and without having to manage the details yourself.
I design and host each journey personally, shaping the pace, the flow, and the experience so it feels seamless from beginning to end.

Designed for travelers who want to be present--not just pass through.

At the end of each journey, I create something you won't find anywhere else:
A custom-written story inspired by the trip and the people who shared it.
It's part reflection, part memory, and something you'll revisit long after the journey ends.
"We just completed our 8 day London vacation 4/20-4/28. This was a trip of a life time for us, seeing so many of the historical sites in London and surrounding area. We had plenty of time to enjoy each day's adventures and return back each evening to relax and reminisce. This was also an opportunity to catch up with old friends we had not seen in years. My wife and I took advantage of one of our days to take the train to Liverpool to take the Beatles Magical Mystery tour, a must see for fans. We could not have done any of this without Ann making every step seamless and totally enjoyable. She was always available to guide us through all the necessary steps leading up to this trip." -- Earl & Joyce
"We didn't just see Scotland--we experienced it. Every detail was handled, and we could actually enjoy where we were. Ann created a trip that felt effortless, for us anyway. We covered lots of places and met great people, and the pacing wasn't rushed at all--it all just worked. Knowing Ann was there handling everything and we could go to her if we had questions or issues made all the difference to us. And the book she created for all of us had us in stitches. We were a bit of a wild bunch, and she captured that." -- Craig and Jackie
I've planned trips for my family for decades. And I was the one who everyone targeted when they had questions, problems, or needed me to repeat directions over and over. It was work. I decided that I wasn't doing it for this trip. I've been looking forward to a trip to Italy for years. So, someone I know recommended Ann to me and told me I wouldn't be disappointed. She was so right. We had a few changes we needed to make due to weather, and she was right there helping me get it done while we were in Rome and in Capri. Now that our youngest is in college, we're seriously considering joining one of her Storybound Journeys. -- Tina and Mike



I take on a small number of custom travel design clients each year, primarily through referrals from past travelers.
If you've traveled with me before--or have been referred by someone who has--you're welcome to reach out.

Alongside the journeys I design, I write stories that explore connection, humor, and the moments that shape us.
