About Us

We have lived with our family in Rome, Paris, Munich, Basel, and The Hague. Over the past 4 decades we’ve come to know special places and people that now we want to share with you.

A little bit about us

We look forward to welcoming you in our tours. Our goal is to provide you with unique, curated experiences and enriching relationships: seeing a new side of people, places, food and culture. We hope you enjoy the new friendships you create along the way.

We have lived as expats, working and traveling across Europe over the past 45 years - in Munich, Basel, The Hague, Rome and Paris. We raised our family of 4 overseas and have learned several languages. Elliott has served in executive roles in German, Swiss, Dutch and Japanese companies and hosted workshops and team events all over the world. Today he owns an Experience Design consultancy, working with global corporate clients.

Elliott travels abroad many times a year for work, taking time on the side to hike, bike, kayak and ski all over the Continent.

Carrie has served in church roles and on international school boards across Europe, and did all the important work of setting up house in all these countries. As expats, we know what it's like to live abroad and have come to know special places and, more importantly, special people that we can't wait to share with you.

Even if you have visited these places before, we are confident you will come away having seen and experienced something new. And we hope you make new friends both near and abroad that will become a valued part of your life.
