Agency & Location

Earnshaw Curated Travel
Lake Forest, CA

After 18 years as an editor and journalist covering the world of family travel, I have transitioned into travel advising so I can use my expertise, research skills, and extensive first-hand experience to help travelers plan their dream vacations.

My own adventures have taken me on African safaris, small-ship cruises in Alaska, and journeys through Hawaii’s major islands, Peru, Costa Rica, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Norway, and numerous U.S. National Parks. I’ve also explored the magic of Disney, enjoyed immersive stays at dude ranches, and experienced destinations from the perspective of both a parent and a travel professional.

As a travel journalist, I’ve had the privilege of staying at world-class resorts, embarking on adventure travel like whitewater rafting and expedition cruising, and diving deep into diverse cultures and landscapes. Over the years, I’ve also mastered the ins and outs of planning Disney vacations, and I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the transformative power of travel—how it connects us, inspires us, and creates memories that last a lifetime.

As an advisor, I love to craft personalized itineraries that are curated to fit your needs. My insider knowledge and industry connections allow me to help clients save time and stress while making the most out of their precious vacations. And most importantly, I believe the right trip can change the way families connect and grow together.
