🩷 HEY Y'ALL! I'M CHRISTY! 🌴

Wife. Mama. Vacation Obsessed. Professional Overthinker of Travel Prices. 👑

And most importantly? A firm believer that you can be BOUGIE without being BROKE! 🛳️✨

I'm a wife, a mama of three with baby number FOUR on the way (yes, you read that right 😂), and somewhere between the baseball tournaments, mountains of laundry, kids yelling "MOM!" 647 times a day, and our beautifully chaotic life, I've developed a serious love for getting AWAY!

Don't get me wrong, I love my family more than anything, but sometimes mama needs an ocean view, a fruity drink, and someone ELSE figuring out what's for dinner! 🍹

💕 SO, WHY TRAVEL WITH ME?

Because I'm already the person everyone comes to when they need travel advice!

I'm the friend you send a screenshot to when you find a cruise and ask, "Is this a good price?"

And I'm the friend who responds with, "GIRL, DON'T BOOK THAT YET!" 😂

Next thing you know, I've compared six different sailings, researched the ships, checked the cabin options, found a potentially better deal, and somehow started planning a vacation for myself too.

It's a talent. It's a problem. We're embracing it. 💅

👑 BOUGIE TASTE. BUDGET-FRIENDLY BANK ACCOUNT.

Listen, I like NICE things.

Give me the oceanfront views, the gorgeous resorts, the balcony cabins, the fancy dinners, the beautiful beaches, and all the little extras that make you feel like you're living somebody else's life for a week.

But paying more than I have to? ABSOLUTELY NOT.

I will research, compare, calculate, and probably make an entire spreadsheet before I let a good travel deal slip through my fingers.

I believe you can have a fabulous vacation without needing to sell a kidney or eat ramen noodles for the next six months.

We're making memories, not financial mistakes, bestie! 💁‍♀️

🛳️ CRUISES HAVE MY HEART!

There's just something about waking up somewhere new, having endless things to do, and knowing somebody else is cooking dinner that speaks directly to my soul.

But I'm not limiting myself to just cruises! All-inclusive resorts, romantic getaways, family trips, girls' weekends, group vacations, and those spontaneous "I NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE" trips? I'm here for ALL of it!

And as a mama, I understand that vacations are an investment. Whether you're taking your entire family or finally sneaking away without the kids, you want every dollar to count.

🌺 HERE'S THE DEAL...

I'm not going to push you toward the most expensive vacation just because it looks pretty in pictures.

I'm going to ask questions, learn what YOU actually want, and help you figure out how to get the most vacation for your money.

Want a balcony but don't know if it's worth the upgrade? Let's compare!

Trying to decide between two cruise lines? Let's talk about it!

Want to take the whole family somewhere fabulous without spending your children's college funds? NOW WE'RE SPEAKING MY LANGUAGE! 😂

I'm the kind of person who gets genuinely excited when someone finds an amazing deal, even when it's not my vacation!

And if you're anything like me, half the fun is having something exciting on the calendar to look forward to.

🩷 LET'S GET YOU OUT OF THAT GROUP CHAT AND ON THAT VACATION!

You know that trip you've been talking about taking for the last three years?

The girls' trip that never makes it out of the group chat?

The family cruise you keep saying you'll book "next year"?

Or the couples getaway you've desperately needed since approximately 2019?

LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Bring me your dream destination, your wishlist, and your budget. I'll bring the research, the excitement, and a completely unreasonable number of open browser tabs.

✨ LIFE'S TOO SHORT FOR BORING VACATIONS & UNNECESSARILY EXPENSIVE ONES! ✨

With love, a little sass, and a whole lot of vacation planning,

Christy 🩷

Your Bougie-on-a-Budget Travel Girl 🌴🛳️
