Sample The Globe

Noticed a few new followers lately, so I figured a proper introduction was overdue. 👋

I’m Cara, the gal behind Sample the Globe. I spend my days turning travel ideas into trips that actually make sense (and hopefully save you a few headaches along the way.

If you’re here for travel inspo, practical tips, and a behind-the-scenes look at life as a travel advisor, you’re in the right place!

If you could book a flight anywhere tomorrow, where would you go? ✈️

Client Spotlight ✨

Laura and Darrell wanted to celebrate their anniversary in Portugal 🇵🇹 and truly splurged on the experience. From private drivers and exclusive tours to an unforgettable Michelin-starred meal, every detail was designed to make the trip special.

And yes… Darrell even jumped into the water in the Algarve, which is definitely not warm in May 😂

So happy I could help them celebrate such a special milestone together ❤️

Clients of the week ✨

Beth and Bryan came to me with a very aggressive plan to see Edinburgh, London, and Paris in just 10 days, plus squeeze in a long list of activities along the way. We were able to slow things down a bit, stretch the timeline where it mattered, and create a trip that felt exciting without being exhausting.

In Edinburgh, they wanted a moody, unique hotel experience, and House of Gods delivered perfectly. Along the way, Beth and I researched some more local and unexpected experiences to mix in with the classics. They made their own Harris Tweed bags in Edinburgh, browsed the famous flea markets in Paris, and also took in iconic sights like the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower. 🇫🇷✨

I love helping clients blend authentic local experiences with the must-see classics to create a trip that feels personal to them instead of just checking boxes. 🌍
