About

Hi! I'm Kim and I'm so happy you've stopped by my digital home. Please take your time exploring its pathways. I hope you'll find something you like, and I’d love to hear from you!

I’m currently based in Mitchell, Georgia with my husband Brian and our Yorkshire Terrier Penelope. I’m a traveler at heart, it’s what I love and what I do. I began dreaming of travel when I was 5 and first started designing trips by pinning spots on the pages of my family’s Encyclopedia Britannica world atlas. Years later, here I am living out that dream with A Girl & A Bag Boutique Travel Designers and want to make your travel dreams come true too.

Growing up, I traveled the east coast with my mom and sister and spent many sensational summers on the vibrant beaches in the cultural hotspot of Miami. As a young adult, I spent time in New York City but the trip that really did it for me was my first solo trip to Europe and I’ve been chasing planes ever since. On my second trip to Europe, in the middle of a two week exploration of Germany, France and the UK, my sister, decided she was nervous and did not want to catch our flight to Italy from London. But we still had to make it back to Frankfurt from London so I quickly jumped in and navigated our change of plans and immediately found a solution. We continued our journey via a 24-hour road trip by taxi, bus, ferry and train and it turned out to be one of the greatest trips ever.

I design your travel experience with your preferences and comfort level in mind. I can hold your hand as loosely or tightly as you need, I’m here to help. I go the extra mile and will be there if things don’t go as planned. I don’t just make bookings, I’m your advocate and designer to solve any problems. I know where to go and to whom in order to get you the best possible outcome on your journeys. I have continued to roam and adventure far and wide and the experiences, the discoveries, the sights, the sounds, the smells, every sense really - and every destination I’ve traveled to has captured me in some way. I know the world and understand where you’re going and what you’ll need- particularly as our ways of travel change.

I can bring any destination to life and I am available to you 24/7 when you are traveling. I don’t work 9-5 and it really is what distinguishes my service from the internet. I’m also able to get you the best offers with my partners and suppliers in the travel industry. Your travel with A Girl & A Bag will be filled with the wisdom, ingenuity and relationships I have acquired to help you have a smooth trip and maximize your experience. I can’t imagine God giving us such a spectacular gift of this world and not seeing it. I want to help people see the world and make unforgettable memories. A professional travel designer has always been one of the best tools savvy travelers have accessed, and this will really become more beneficial as we navigate a new world of travel. I hope you’ll begin your journey with me.

Happy travels!
