Laura combines her 20 year career in business and keen eye for detail with her passion for travel. She’s explored such far-off destinations as Bosnia, Honduras, Argentina, Japan, Singapore, Indonesia, Turkey and the Maldives. She’s traveled solo in Europe, practiced yoga in Bali, felt her heart race on the back of a Vespa in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, rolled wheels of parmesan cheese in Italy and island hopped in Croatia. She fell in love with Spain’s white washed villages and dove through history, scuba diving amongst WWII shipwrecks in Egypt’s Red Sea. Thoughts of never returning crossed her mind while on safari in Kenya, cherishing a glass of wine, watching a sundowner sunset.

Laura provides clients with experiences that separate bespoke travel from the generic hotels and tours you find online. Whether it’s an African safari or a getaway close to home, if you can dream it, Laura can plan it.

Tammi was born and raised in Boston and has lived in Los Angeles for 30 years. Married to her equally charming husband, Michael, she stays busy raising their teenage son, Jack, and four step children – all now successful adults – Grace, David, Hannah, and Hope as well as two dynamic dogs, George Bailey and Mary, fittingly named after beloved characters in “It’s a Wonderful Life”.

We’re excited to welcome Lindsay to our Well Traveled Texan/Los Angeles team! Lindsay’s passion for travel is matched by her curiosity in discovering new destinations.

She grew up spending time with family at Mardi Gras parades in New Orleans, in the Golden Isles of Georgia and the mountains of Wyoming.

Lindsay’s modeling career took her all over the world, living in her first apartment in Paris as an 18 year old, while traveling on shoots throughout Australia, Mexico, the Caribbean, Korea, Japan, Germany, France, Spain and Italy. She later moved back to California and enrolled in UC San Diego where she majored in Biochemistry.

Camille brings a sharp business mind and a passion for great adventures to Well Traveled Texan. Her travels have taken her to France, Greece, Turkey, and Egypt, Utah, Colorado, the Cayman Islands and Punta Mita, Mexico. She’s an expert on south Florida and the Keys and all things sports. She loves fighting the crowds at bucket list events like The Masters, The Ryder Cup, The US Open, The Final Four, and The Indy 500.

Camille honed her business skills at Vanderbilt University where she fell in love with the south and earned an MBA in Business Strategy from the Kellogg School of Business.

Darlene is as obsessed with travel as we all are! Her successful 30 year career in the software industry has made her an expert at client service and the “details, details” essential to planning the perfect trip. Darlene has explored Africa, France, Spain, and Central America, hiked her way through Utah and Colorado, and kicked up her heels on the beaches of Hawaii, Mexico, the Caribbean and Florida. She loves planning bucket list vacations, long weekends, girls or guys trips and is just as comfortable glammed up at the American Music Awards as she is in the stands at the Euro Cup, two of her favorite adventures with family and friends.

Darlene grew up in Chicago and came to Texas as quickly as she could, moving to Houston as a teen and graduating from Sam Houston State University. She lives in Houston with her husband, Ron, two dynamic daughters, Julia and Olivia, a misfit bulldog named Louie, and has never met a stranger.

While thinking of the next great adventure, she can be found on the sidelines cheering on her girls in volleyball, soccer and basketball, and trying to convince Ron it’s time for another trip (even though they just got back from one). We love that Well Traveled Texan spirit!

We’re so excited to have Louiza on our Well Traveled Texan Team!

Our two agency assistants do everything from coordinating client itineraries, managing social media, writing copy, and their favorite part of the job, adventure tour testers. Former hosts of the TV show “Kid’s Eye View: Real World, Real Fun”, they’ve grown up traveling the world while taking viewers along for the ride, across Europe, Central America, Canada the Caribbean, and the US. Competitive national tournament athletes in Beach Volleyball, Basketball and Lacrosse, when these teens aren’t racking up points, they’re on the beach, skiing the slopes or exploring the city – anywhere in the great outdoors.

Being our tour testers is a tough job (wink, wink) and they take it very seriously! In the past few years alone they’ve amassed over 150 great experiences that become part of our family itineraries. On their “best of” list – Truffle Hunting in Provence, falconry in Malta, Pinxtos tours in San Sebastian, Spain, hiking Peru’s Machu Picchu, zip lining the jungles of Panama, dogsledding in Quebec, island hopping in Sicily, Sardinia and Greece, and driving dune buggies through the slot canyons of Moab, Utah. If there’s a country lane, sandy beach or city street, these ladies are ready to explore it!
