About Me
Hello Cruise Lovers … Cue the confetti and let’s go! I’m Machelle and truly treasure everything cruising as sailing along the calming oceans and rivers is simply the most majestical vibe. Although I initially aspired to be a cruise director, once I absorbed all that the cruising world offered, my destiny began on its’ own path wholeheartedly. As a former Chief Travel Consultant within my own business, I possess a significant background in business management, became a certified Luxury Cruise Expert, have led successful teams through all levels of customer service and monitored/developed innovative trends of particular interest to the travel industry. With this in-depth experience, coordinating and elevating cruising experiences to unimaginable levels is my standard.
Yes, admittedly so, I’m a fanatic when it comes to Hawaii, the California wine country, the Caribbean and Mexico, as I live, love, breath the iconic silhouettes of palm trees, the most serene beaches, sipping signature cocktails, indulging in wine experiences, zip lining over the endless clapping of ocean waves, dancing the night away Caribbean-style and enjoying breathtaking sunsets that silences the world. Simply put … Paradise!! Europe and the Mediterranean are quickly becoming my next loves as I embrace opportunities to explore every corner of the world.
The perks of a diverse background allowed me to evolve naturally primarily due to an extreme love for the ocean and traveling abroad, while working extensively with varying cruise lines. I’m that gal who could literally live on a ship and sail around the globe constantly. With the concentration on designing exciting vacations to ensure memories last a lifetime for every client, mastering plans for solo travelers, exciting couples, friendly getaways and unique groups has been particularly rewarding.
All in all, I’m a globetrotter at heart and your dedicated Cruise Connoisseur!
Speak to Machelle
Hawaii and Aruba top the list of my all-time favorite destinations. There’s still so much more to experience but both islands simply speak to all that’s me. I’m an island girl at heart and love looking for the next amazing tropical island or grand destination to take my breath away.
Shhhhhh, I’ve not selected my favorite cruise ship yet. I’ve enjoyed every ship I’ve sailed on and, each time, thought that one was the best until my next sailing. I’m a cruise fanatic and enjoy every moment on the ocean. Believe me, I’m looking for THAT ship to call mine!
It will always be referred to this as my “Must Do” list! Tahiti, Fiji Islands, Bora Bora, Maldives and Bali are at the very top with the Mediterranean (especially Greece) and Europe, Dubai, Australia, Thailand and Singapore all competing for my sole attention.
Simply put, I love to explore and am always seeking ways to experience anything new and different. With this next chapter loading, the more I travel, the more I love embracing local cultures. Travel will always be my primary interest, but hobbies are fluctuating, which just keeps life exciting.
