My Journey
Since age 15, I have explored over 60 countries, each adventure a chapter in my own story of becoming.
Philippines: Among ancient rice terraces, I learned patience and reverence for nature's rhythms.
Namibia: On ochre dunes under vast skies, I discovered the freedom of true solitude.
Kyoto & Mexico City: In temples and street festivals, I experienced the dualities of stillness and celebration, introspection and exuberance.
Brazil’s Carnival: I found joy in surrender, dancing without boundaries, fully alive.
These moments didn’t just change my view of the world; they transformed my understanding of myself.
The Birth Of The Third Latitude
This company was born from a realization: the most meaningful journeys are not transactions, but transformations. They are thoughtfully designed experiences, rooted in intention and guided by who you are becoming. The Third Latitude is an invitation to explore your own narrative through travel, with depth, beauty, and elegant precision.
My Approach
As a cultural researcher and narrative psychologist, I serve as both listener and guide. I move beyond "where to?" and explore "what for?" Together, we co-create journeys that resonate deeply, designed like a story and lived like a memory.
This personalized care extends to our proprietary Third Companion™, an AI-powered partner supporting you emotionally and logistically throughout your journey.
Experiences That Shaped Me
Meditating atop Sri Lanka’s Sigiriya Rock and plunging into Victoria Falls.
Witnessing Iceland’s northern lights and embracing the vibrant contrasts of Japan and Colombia
These moments taught me that beauty isn't merely witnessed—it's fully entered.

The Heart Of Our Philosophy
The Balkans' winding roads, Nepal's vast Annapurna silence, Egypt's storied Nile, and Peru's sacred valleys embody our essence — places where travel and transformation merge. At The Third Latitude, we believe travel is not just about where you go, but who you’re becoming. Each journey is a mirror, revealing your evolving self and inviting a deeper connection to the world around you.
My Promise To You
If you're seeking beyond standard travel—something intimate, intelligent, and quietly life-altering—this is where that begins.
Deep Listening: Every journey starts with understanding your rhythms, desires, and personal narrative.
Meticulous Craftsmanship: I meticulously research and refine each element, drawing from cultural expertise, local relationships, and logistical mastery.
Seamless & Profound Experiences: We craft experiences that are both seamless and profoundly transformative.
This isn’t just travel planning. It’s a quiet transformation, carefully composed. And I’d be honored to craft your next chapter.
Where you are is geography. Who you're becoming is a journey.
