Journeys with JB
Elevated journeys designed for life's most meaningful moments.
Hi, I'm Jea — Founder &
Luxury Travel Advisor
I'm a Virtuoso-affiliated luxury travel advisor with firsthand experience in 35+ countries across five continents. My background as a nurse taught me to show up for people with precision, attentiveness, and genuine advocacy, and those same values shape every journey I design. I work with a vetted network of hotels, guides, and on-the-ground partners to make the entire experience seamless, from first conversation to your return home.
I'm also a photographer at heart, which means I'm instinctively drawn to destinations that are visually stunning and atmospherically rich. I design itineraries with careful attention to flow, pacing, and the kinds of details you didn't know to ask for, but are glad were there.
Let's design a journey that feels as good as it looks, and better than you imagined.
Curated for Every Milestone
Adventure & Expedition Travel
For travelers who want more than a typical vacation, journeys centered around dramatic landscapes, outdoor exploration, and once-in-a-lifetime destinations.
Honeymoons & Milestone Trips
Unforgettable trips to celebrate life's biggest moments. From safari honeymoons to luxury island escapes and adventure-filled getaways, every journey is tailored to you.
Small Group & Celebration Travel
Thoughtfully planned trips for groups traveling together, bringing people and memories together seamlessly.
What Does Your Budget Actually Unlock?
Answer 4 short questions about your trip and see exactly what your budget unlocks — estimated flights, hotel tier, experiences, and Fora, Virtuoso, and other preferred partner benefits.
Let's start with your budget.
Enter your total trip budget — everything included: flights, hotels, experiences, and transfers.
Total in USD for the entire trip, all travelers combined. All results are estimates — actual costs vary by season, availability, and booking timing.
What kind of trip is this?
This helps tailor the experience descriptions and benefits to what matters most for your journey.
Duration and destination.
These two factors have the biggest impact on how far your budget goes.
How many nights?What matters most to you?
This tells me how to allocate your budget — toward the finest hotels, toward extraordinary experiences, or a thoughtful balance of both.
JB will use this to follow up and begin planning your trip.
Your Budget, Translated.
Here's exactly what your investment unlocks — and where it could take you.
These are estimates. All figures — including hotel budgets, flight costs, and tier thresholds — reflect approximate market averages based on US hub airport departures. Actual prices vary based on travel dates, seasonality, advance booking timing, and availability. Peak season, school holidays, and last-minute bookings can significantly affect rates at every tier. JB will provide current pricing and real-time availability during your planning conversation.
* Hotel amenity perks — including complimentary breakfast, hotel credits, and room upgrades — are preferred partner benefits available exclusively through an advisor booking and cannot be obtained when booking direct. Planning, coordination, and pre-trip briefing services are included with every JB booking regardless of booking channel.

Destinations I've Personally Explored
I believe the best travel recommendations come from firsthand experience. All of the photos below represent destinations I have personally explored and continue to recommend and plan for my clients.

- Luxury tented camps with full amenities
- Sundowner cocktails on the open plains
- Hot air balloon safari over the Mara River
