There's nothing scarier than a trip being completely planned and ready to book without having to lift a finger ... and then not booking it and having FOMO at home while everyone else has the time of their lives.

Don’t let that be you. Come with me to Amsterdam 🌷

I have spent the last couple months working SO hard on this itinerary to make sure it's the perfect blend of exploring and relaxing.

I wanted to make sure this was not a trip you'd find on your own. With private tours, unique dining experiences, and a splash of the regular touristy stuff, I know this trip is going to be absolutely EPIC. 🤩

Only 22 spots available and 3 are already taken.

I have to say… watching this trip to Amsterdam slowly come to life for the overworked, overwhelmed, and just simply OVER IT adults has been one of my favorite things I’ve worked on in a long time.

The itinerary came together beautifully, the experiences are booked, pricing is live, and people are already starting to grab spots which honestly makes this feel VERY real now 👀✈️

Inside my group, I’ve been sharing:
✨ itinerary details
✨ room options
✨ excursion previews
✨ food experiences
✨ included details
✨ pricing/payment plans
✨ travel tips
✨ behind-the-scenes planning
✨ destination updates
✨ all the little things making this trip feel intentional instead of basic

If you’ve been quietly watching from the sidelines, this is your sign to join us in the group and check everything out before spots disappear.

AND…
if you already know someone who would absolutely love this kind of experience, add them too please, because NO GATEKEEPING fun stuff from our friends 👏

Sometimes people need a friend to say:
“Let’s just GO.”

Tag your travel bestie below or add them to the group because I have a feeling this trip is going to create some really special memories 🌷

I am getting VERY close to officially opening booking for Dutch by Design: The Amsterdam Experience, so I wanted to give everyone a quick heads up on what to expect next. 🌷

Once pricing and booking officially go live, WAITLIST members will receive first access before the trip is opened publicly.

Because I only have 22 spots available, I do expect inventory to move quickly once deposits open.

Now is a really good time to start thinking about:
- whether you plan to travel solo or with someone
- if you want to come early or stay longer
- whether you already know this trip is something you don’t want to miss

The trip will include:
- 14 meals (mix of breakfast, lunch, dinner)
- 7 extremely immersive tours and experiences
- lodging with floor to ceiling windows with EPIC views of the city
- roundtrip airport transportation
- and so much more!

I’m getting more excited every single day watching this experience fully come together, and I cannot wait to release this so very soon.

Are you planning to travel solo, or are you hoping to bring someone along with you? 🤩
