Where we've wandered
"Thank you for planning and adding such detailed and exquisite touches to our trip. Thank you SO SO MUCH! Honestly, none of us wanted to come home, minus missing our extended family members. The entire time and experience would take me pages and pages to express how much we enjoyed every minute. Thank you for loving travel and the beauties of this world. Thank you for genuinely wanting to and giving others an experience of a lifetime. I don't even see how to travel unless having you plan all of our adventures from here on out. I felt like I was walking and living out a dream each and every day. I love the culture and the people of Costa Rica more than anything else. Truly, Pura Vida is a way of life and we all hope to practice that more. Sarah, you gave us something that our hearts will forever cherish." - Robyn L. (family trip to Costa Rica)
"I really don’t know where to start…the entire trip was perfect. I was worried it was aggressive for our kids, but they LOVED it—the tours, the boats, all of it. You did an amazing job planning a perfect trip for our family. And, I was worried because my husband is particular about all hotels, but he kept telling me how impressed he was with everything and you needed to be on my speed-dial for future vacations. So, our heartfelt thanks to you and your partners in Greece for a wonderful experience.” - Deb (Family trip to Greece)
"We just returned from Italy and we want to say: Thank You!! It was the best vacation we have ever had!! It exceeded our expectations and you are the key reason for it. We very much appreciate your ideas, planning and execution. From the thoughtful cards and wine when we arrived at each beautiful hotel, the ease of not having to worry about the details because you had taken care of everything, the amazing and memorable experiences we were able to participate in, and the overall "wandering" throughout Italy to take in so many unique and stunning locations, all combined to make something so detailed seem so seamless and smooth. Thank you for being excellent at what you do. We will certainly make sure all of our friends know about "Purposeful Wanderings" and the exemplary service you provide as you have certainly enriched our lives...." - Randy B. (Couple trip to Italy)
"We had such an amazing trip! Each day was just the right amount of activity. The accommodations were over the top unique and luxurious. The pace of the trip was just right as well.

Thank you for being a part of a trip of a lifetime!" - Paul & Bev (surprise trip to Italy)

I have to thank you immensely for making this trip so wonderful for me and I truly look forward to the day that I can use you again. I will also no doubt recommend you highly to any friend that I can. I have never used a travel agent before, but I now completely understand the merits of it and can't wait for my next opportunity to reach out to you." -Amanda W. (Italy solo travel)
"We really can’t put into words how thankful we are for the work you put into coordinating our trip. It was simply incredible.

She has a knack for enhancing experiences and I’m excited to travel with her again soon!” - Judy H. (Group trip to China)
"Everything was really great. The apartments, the suggestions for meals, the cooking class, the tour guide, the order of cities we visited and even the duration of time in each area. Also, knowing that we didn't have to worry about if our accomodation was in a bad part of town or about how to go about renting a car among many other things made the trip 100x better than it would have otherwise been. So, thank you for all your help Sarah. It was much appreciated and now we have amazing family memories to last a lifetime." -Jen L. (Family trip to Italy)
"Sarah is an absolute gem to collaborate with! She has the innate ability to perfectly balance her personal and professional passions. Sarah is extremely organized and efficient and always goes above and beyond to ensure that her friends & associates receive the attention and service they deserve. She appreciates the details and knows they make all the difference when curating and executing an experience. Working with Sarah has been a huge blessing for me, she is as generous and gracious as she funny and fascinating." - Carrie J. (Foodie travel in California)
