Several years ago I made a New Year's resolution to go somewhere I've never been before. Before then, the only travel I experienced for well over a decade was business travel. This became an annual resolution and one well kept. Over the years since, I have seen some amazing vistas, activities I never thought I would undertake, and planned some pretty complex itineraries. I also have a passion for music. Concerts and festivals quickly became the centerpiece of many of my travels. Thus 'Sounds Travel'. Feeding my passions have enriched my life beyond imagination. When career began to conflict with these passions, I made a choice. Helping others with travel has been one of the most rewarding pursuits I could have chosen. It's a very large and diverse world out there and there's endless opportunities to experience new and exciting destinations! Whether you are going somewhere I have been, or somewhere I haven't, I'll curate an experience with the same passion as if I was going myself!

I am father of two and grandfather of three I also work as a freelance music review writer and volunteer at my local animal shelter.

The world is a big place and it is impossible to be a destination expert across the entire planet. I have intentionally focused my training on areas I have personally experienced and know best - Cruising, Florida and the Caribbean, Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.
