Thailand - 2023

One of the best gifts a parent can give to a parent is the gift of travel, imho. This family decided to gift a trip to their daughter for their 12th birthday, anywhere in the world. She decided upon Thailand, so they called me to help craft the itinerary. She was wanting to see Phuket and enjoy the beaches as well as interacting with elephants and eating alllllll the food.

Interacting with elephants in Thailand can be problematic if you don’t do a bit of research, as some places do not care for the animals as well as others. But, thanks to my partnership with local tour operators, I’m able to ensure the experiences I offer my clients are considering animal welfare conditions and are picking only those that treat the animals well.
