About Erica
After working in corporate for several years – managing customer service, mortgages, and training and development at TD Bank branches – I decided to take a break. I moved to Copenhagen, Denmark for three years, followed by a two-year stint in the United States. Upon returning to Toronto, I wanted to work again, but I was also raising two daughters and felt that another corporate role might not be the best fit. As a longtime travel enthusiast, I decided to try my hand at a new career, initially part-time but quickly transitioning to full-time. For the past decade, I've specialized in curating luxury travel experiences, recognizing the value of precious time off and the importance of creating unforgettable moments for my clients. My passion for travel stems from its ability to build lasting memories, promote reconnection and rejuvenation, and provide windows into new cultures and traditions.
I get asked the question a lot of my favourite destination. I don’t think I have one as they are all so diverse and offer different experiences. I lived in Copenhagen for 3 years and traveled throughout Europe and I would go back in a heart beat. I love Europe, the different cultures, the food, the sites, the way everything is a bit slower so you can enjoy life a bit better. I have traveled to Dubai and Abu Dhabi and would highly recommend that for my clients as it is a remarkable experience. I have traveled to most of the Caribbean islands and St Lucia is my favourite thus far. I have quite the bucket list of places to visit; Iceland, Alaska, Africa (have not decided where….so many places), Prague, Turkey, Wyoming (yes, it is a bit different, but looks incredible), all of Italy! My list could go on and on. As my daughters get older, it is becoming easier for me to travel a bit more on my own and I hope to be jetting off in second half of 2019 - to where....stay tuned!
