Hi, my name is Nicole.

And this is my story….

At first, travel was a necessity for me — a way to step outside my everyday reality and breathe. When COVID changed the world, I began organizing group trips as a way to reconnect, explore, and escape the isolation of quarantine. What started as a simple idea quickly turned into something bigger: I discovered how much I loved bringing people together, helping them experience new places, and creating shared memories through what became The Curated Experience.

As life shifted and people’s schedules and budgets changed, I expanded my approach, designing travel opportunities for all kinds of travelers who wanted to see places they’d never been before. Somewhere along that journey, my relationship with travel transformed. It was no longer about escaping — it became about joy, curiosity, and discovering different ways of life.

Today, while I still help plan meaningful trips for others, I’m also passionate about personally exploring the world — from discovering new restaurants and hotels to trying different flights and travel experiences. I love sharing honest insights, recommendations, and inspiration by testing, exploring, and sharing the best in travel so you don’t have to guess. So Join me on my new journey of Curated by Nicole.
