Travel Designer
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”
Mark Twain
Alex lives South of Philadelphia, PA, near the mushroom capital of the world, Kennett Square. He has worked in travel for nearly 30 years and loves to travel to sun and sand destinations, as well as historic cities around the globe.
When not traveling, Alex enjoys watching and attending Phillies and Eagles games, collecting sports cards and memorabilia, movies with the family and good old fashion BBQ’s with friends and family.
Favorite Destinations: Growing up, his family vacations were always to the Jersey shore, which was fine until the Beach Boys classic, Kokomo was released and it made him want to visit every destination in the song. Once he turned 18, he took his first international trip to Nassau, Bahamas. Shortly after that, he got his first job in the travel industry, working as a reservations agent for a major travel wholesaler, which allowed him to visit many of the destinations in the song. So in the end, he doesn’t have a favorite destination, he has a favorite type of vacation and that is a sun and fun, beach vacation.
Since his first trip, Alex has been lucky enough to work for some of the very best All-Inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean and as such, he has been able to stay at or at least visit just about every All-Inclusive resort in Cancun/Riviera Maya and Punta Cana, as well as a many of the resorts in Jamaica and the Bahamas.
This past year alone, his family has been to Jamaica for a week, Cancun for 10 nights, and Los Cabos for a week. He finds that traveling educates his kids and gives them a higher appreciation for their quality of life at home.
