Over the past year, I’ve enjoyed sharing my favorite destinations and those still on my bucket list.
Recently, I realized I’ve never properly introduced my business, Mariposa Travel Advisors, and what inspired me to pursue a career in travel.
My journey began with a lifelong dream of seeing gorillas in Africa, a transformational experience that was the best trip I’d ever taken. It was also my first true encounter with immersive travel, made possible by working with a travel advisor. Free from the burden of planning and decisions, I was able to savor every moment. This experience inspired me to reinvent myself and start Mariposa Travel Advisors.
Mariposa Travel Advisors is built on decades of meticulous planning, both innate and honed through professional experience, combined with a deep commitment to client care, and a passion for exploration. My goal is to make travel planning effortless, giving clients peace of mind and the freedom to fully embrace their journeys. I aim to inspire with adventure and culinary experiences that promote sustainable travel and immerse travelers in diverse cultures. My love for travel began with my mother and my first European adventure, eventually leading me to live in the French Alps. Now based in Santa Monica, I continue to draw from French culture and travel philosophy, infusing this passion into every journey I curate.
As an affiliate of Cadence Travel and a member of Virtuoso, I provide clients with unparalleled access to exclusive perks, unique experiences, and the confidence of working with trusted travel suppliers. By combining my professional expertise with my personal travel adventures, I strive to create enriching journeys for every client.
I hope that sharing a bit more about my background adds a personal touch to my travel columns. Feel free to reach out to me at tanya@mariposatraveladvisors.com
