Travel Should Feel Like You

Hi, I'm Amy Gulbrandsen. I've always believed the best stories begin with a boarding pass. Travel has been my greatest teacher and my favorite way to connect with people, food, history, and landscapes that stay with you long after you've unpacked.

My love of travel starts close to home. The United States is full of surprises, and few places capture me like Joshua Tree, where the desert sky, the boulders, and the quiet make you slow down and breathe. From the red rock canyons of the Southwest to the coastlines of New England and the Pacific, charming small towns, and cities with world-class dining, I love showing travelers that an extraordinary trip doesn't always require a passport.

Then there's the rest of the world, which I'm endlessly curious about. Paris holds a special place in my heart. I love wandering its neighborhoods, lingering over a long meal, and coming home to the elegance of the George V. It's the kind of place that reminds me why thoughtful travel planning matters so much.

Over the years, I've designed journeys for nearly every kind of traveler:

• Family trips that keep kids and parents equally happy
• Extended family gatherings where everyone, from grandparents to cousins, feels considered
• Honeymoons that mark the start of a marriage in a beautiful way
• Mother-daughter getaways built around connection and memories
• Empty nester adventures for couples rediscovering travel on their own terms

I don't have to have been everywhere to take great care of you. If I haven't visited your dream destination myself, chances are one of my colleagues at Fora Travel has. I'll tap into their firsthand knowledge and work alongside them to craft your journey, so every hotel, guide, restaurant, and experience comes recommended by someone who has been there. You get the benefit of a whole network of seasoned travelers, with me as your dedicated point of contact from the first conversation to the moment you're home again.

My goal is simple: to take the stress out of planning and put the wonder back in. Tell me where you've always wanted to go, or even just how you want to feel, and let's build something amazing together.
