๐ŸŒ About Me:

Your Personal Travel Concierge and Trusted Advisor

Hello, fellow globe-trotters and journey seekers! I'm Shawna Flinkert, hailing from the breathtaking vistas of British Columbia, Canada, the land I lovingly call home. 

With a background steeped in sales, I took a leap of faith in my late 40s to carve out a new path as a travel advisor โ€“ an adventure in itself! 

I've since infused my lifelong passion for travel into my profession, allowing me to journey far and wide, across North America and beyond, all while garnering invaluable insights to curate the ultimate travel experiences for my clients. 

๐Ÿš Life on the Road โ€“ and Beyond: 

Travel wasn't always within reach for me, but the dreams of distant lands and unseen wonders brewed internally, cultivating a fierce wanderlust that now propels me forward. 

I've relished in the great Canadian Rockies, paddled the serene waters of Belize, sailed the shimmering seas of the British Virgin Islands, and recently, marveled at the awe-inspiring sights of a South African safari. 

These voyages have painted my life's canvas with vibrant colors and have instilled a desire in me to share the magic of wanderlust with fellow travelers.

๐ŸŒธ Diverse Travel Expertise:

Alongside my role as a travel advisor with Travel Best Bets, through my company Wander and Soul Travel Collective, I'm the proud founder of Wander and Soul, a vibrant womenโ€™s travel and lifestyle club.

This speaks to my passion for creating inclusive, empowering travel experiences and fostering a sense of community for like-minded women. But let it be known, my expertise stretches far and wide โ€“ catering to all travel dreams, regardless of gender or group size. 

Whether you're adventuring solo, planning a romantic getaway, or wishing for a family retreat โ€“ I curate exceptional travel experiences tailored to each individual's desires. 

With me, it's not just about the destination; it's about the journey and the stories you'll tell. Think of me as your passport to a world of adventure, open to anyone with the itch to explore!

๐Ÿ”— Seamless Integration of Passions:  

My work with Wander and Soul is interwoven with my dedication at Travel Best Bets, ensuring that every traveler โ€“ man, woman, alone, or in a group โ€“ receives my full enthusiasm and expertise in crafting their perfect adventure. 

It's about striking a balance between solo and communal journeys, creating a tapestry of travel experiences that celebrate diversity and the collective wanderlust spirit that unites us all.

As your travel advisor, I wholeheartedly believe in the profound impact of travel โ€“ it's an odyssey of self-discovery, growth, and boundless joy. I'm here to navigate the details, fire up your imagination with vibrant destinations, and ensure your travel aspirations fully blossom into reality.

Your journey, your way โ€“ with a touch of soulful wandering. Letโ€™s make your next travel chapter one for the books!
