The Curated by EK approach

The best journeys don’t come from a template.

They begin with understanding what makes a trip memorable for you—then bringing every piece together with intention.

I combine trusted luxury partners, firsthand perspective, and a genuine love of the details to create travel that feels seamless, personal, and full of a sense of place.

Designed around you

Luxury isn’t one thing. It’s the right thing, beautifully done.

A hotel that understands your family. A private guide who brings a place to life. Time to linger over lunch, swim in a hidden cove, or change course because the day calls for it.

I plan the polished details—and protect the space for the unplanned moments that make a journey yours.

Meet Elizabeth

A lifetime of curiosity, turned into extraordinary travel.

I’m Elizabeth, a Fora-affiliated travel advisor. Born in the Netherlands, based in Seattle, and happiest somewhere between a ski run in Japan and a quiet Mediterranean cove, I plan travel with the same curiosity and care I bring to my own family’s journeys.

I believe the most memorable trips balance beauty with adventure, thoughtful luxury with a true sense of place—and leave you with stories you’ll keep telling long after you return.
