Stephanie LeVeque

Travel junkie. Creator. Genealogist. Quirky. Foodie. Designer. Belly Dancer. Musician. Nerd. Bilingual. Make other people look good for a living. I've worn a Smokey Bear mascot costume twice. I like words, kayaking, cello, festivals, and spontaneity.

I thrive on creating culturally authentic travel experiences, researching and incorporating local traditions, personal genealogy, and romantic notions of a place to provide meaningful encounters. I feel that we can have beautiful travel experiences vicariously through locals, ancestry, and our own nostalgic observations. These experiences soak in, make us malleable, and strengthen our drive and confidence.

I enjoy cooking. Food is about imagination, about making it your own. Be a thesaurus and let the words flow from your mouth and imagination when you’re in the kitchen.

Using words is one medium that I let flow without much editing. Freedom to intuitively express what lies within allows me to understand a larger subconscious vision that I have for myself, and, in turn, unlock incredible potential.

I'm currently working on a project to infuse the flames of many passions into one do-all life salve for those seeking a higher, more authentic contentment in their daily lives.
