Since I was very young I remember packing my own carry-on and getting a little pamphlet on the destinations we were going to visit. My family loves to travel and the excitement always began before we departed, and my curiosity has never waned.
I grew up in Beverly Hills, earned my Bachelor’s degree from UC San Diego, and my Master’s degree from Tel Aviv University. Having lived in the two dynamic and well-positioned cities of London and Tel Aviv for over six years (collectively), I rarely missed an opportunity to spend my weekends and holidays traveling through Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
While working in the vibrant Tel Aviv startup world in travel tech, my mother Renée Strauss, a wedding industry veteran, and I co-founded the company Wedaways: a curated portfolio of the world’s best destination wedding venues. One of the most interesting and enjoyable aspects of building our growing business is to visit almost every property we invite to join, personally.
I make it a point when I travel to veer off the beaten path to discover gems in each location, taste local foods, and immerse myself in the highlights of a destination. Travel and the memories we make from our experiences either alone or with loved ones, is a privilege to be treasured.
Whether it’s a romantic getaway to a beach destination, an authentic immersion trip to Asia, a heritage destination wedding in Europe, or bucket list safari with the family, I’m well versed in the requirements, lay of the land, and ground services to ensure the best experiences are had by all.
A lover of luggage and luxury, I always have my passport and favorite carry-on by the door, ready for the next adventure!
Traveling to Thailand is a highlight for me and I always look forward to returning. The last time I visited I spent 3 weeks traveling and exploring night markets, understanding the culture, history, and marveling at the architecture. Returning to the Golden Triangle, where Myanmar, Laos & Thailand meet, is one of my favorite excursions. Interacting with the elephants in the elephant sanctuary shared by the Anantara and Four Seasons is undoubtedly one of the most unique experiences I have ever enjoyed.
Having lived in Israel for many years, its central location gave me many opportunities to travel the region. I always discovered something new in Israel. The neighborhoods, the desert (always changing), the sea. All vibrant and exciting. Turkey was a favorite weekend expedition. From Istanbul to the Datca Peninsula to Cappadocia. The vibrant energy and culture and landscape are so unique and the food is amazing!
I’ve been to Italy more frequently than any other destination. There are so many fantastic properties to enjoy and places to discover. The entire country is an open-air museum and the variety of experiences continue to expand. La dolce vita!
