We met as internet friends, traveled the world together and made careers out of our passion for exploring. Our team has spent countless hours planning trips, traveling, and experiencing new cultures.
Our travel expertise and our passion to build a community of travel girls is what led us to start Scout Escapes. We love that traveling can create life-long friendships through experiences you’ll never forget.
Friends and fun are our top two goals for each of our Scout Escapes trips. We always curate our trips with you in mind and organize a balance of planned activities and free time for you to fully immerse yourself in a new destination. Our team organizes all of the details, so all you have to do is sit back, relax and fall in love with traveling!
We are both luxury travel agents with Avenue Two Travel – which is the first Forbes Travel Guide Endorsed travel agency! Knowing the in’s and out’s of the travel business allows us to create perfectly tailored itineraries in every destination.

After living abroad in Paris for many yeas, I decided to become a travel content creator which has been my career for nearly 7 years.

Hello fellow globetrotters! I’ve been a luxury travel agent for almost five years. Travel has always been a passion of mine and turning it into a career has been my best decision yet! In my opinion there’s nothing better than traveling the world and creating genuine friendships and epic memories along the way. And I am a firm believer that you should NOT have to wait for the trip to make it out of the group chat to see the world! Can’t wait to travel the world with you!
