I’m Elisabeth

— a natural explorer with an unquenchable curiosity for other cultures, a deep love of food, and a slightly obsessive relationship with research.

For years, I was the person friends and family turned to when travel ideas needed direction, comparison, and someone willing to dig into the details. I loved that part: researching possibilities, finding the better fit, thinking through the timing, and uncovering the experiences that made a destination feel more alive.

I also believe travel is more than a change of scenery. It brings joy through discovery, deepens connection through shared experiences, and gives us space to reset, grow, and see the world — and ourselves — differently.

Those ideas became the foundation of Willow & Wander Travel: a belief that where we travel matters, but how we experience a place matters even more.

That means doing the research, sorting through the endless options, thinking through the logistics, and finding the details and experiences that makes travel feel distinctly yours. You get to spend less time managing the travel and more time living it.

Ready?

Tell me where you’re dreaming of going, what matters most, and how you want the experience to feel. I’ll take care of the research, logistics, and details that bring it all together.
