About
Hello — I'm Erika Jackson.
A professional travel advisor who plans and books vacations personally, for people who'd rather spend their time anticipating the trip than researching it.
I plan vacations for a living because I love the part most people find exhausting.
[Owner to supply: your story in your own words — how you started as a travel advisor, the trips that shaped you, and what you love about handing someone an itinerary that fits them perfectly.]
What I can tell you is how I work. I ask a lot of questions. I care about pacing, neighborhoods and the small differences between two hotels that look identical online. I'd rather send you three excellent options than thirty average ones.
I travel with my family, with friends and sometimes on my own — and those trips inform everything I recommend.
Planning philosophy
How I work
Listen first
The trip starts with questions, not a proposal.
Plan the pace
How full a day feels matters as much as what's in it.
Choose carefully
Fewer, better recommendations instead of twenty links.
Handle the details
Transfers, timing, reservations and the things easy to forget.
Stay available
Before you go, while you're there and after you're home.
Keep it personal
You're working with me — the same person, start to finish.
Education
Where the style side comes from.
I hold Bachelor's degrees in Fashion Design and Merchandising. For years that lived in one part of my life and travel lived in another — until clients started asking what to pack, what I was wearing in a photo and whether they really needed a jacket in Scotland in June.
Travel Style grew out of those conversations. It's a natural extension of the advisory work, never a replacement for it: I help you decide where to go, plan the experience thoughtfully, and then help you know what to bring when you get there.
The next step
Let's plan your next trip.
Tell me who's traveling and how you like to travel. I'll take it from there.
