Course Testimonials

Diane’s Testimonial

“I recently traveled internationally for the first time on my own. I found Christine’s tips in her Travel Like a Pro course to be really useful because I haven’t traveled on a plane in a long time and her course reminded me of what to pack and steps to take so that I could enjoy the trip without hitches. Also, if you are a nature journaler, she has lots of useful tips for packing supplies. What colors do you bring, and should you bring pencils, pens, paints? Which brushes? Tools for nature observing? Really, how do you pack an easy-to-carry case with all your supplies and still have room for your clothes? Plus, Christine had some great tips for packing in rainy/humid environments. Coming from the desert, this is not something I normally think about. Her course helped me figure out what gear was “travel-worthy!”

– Diane Wong-Kone, course student and Costa Rica trip participant

Melinda’s Testimonial

“Thank you Christine for your fun, light-hearted, supportive way of sharing your packing, organization, and travel tips with us. My 18-yr old daughter and I learned how to prepare and pack through your course and 1-on-1 video meeting with us.

We took a 17-day trip to Greece with just a personal item and carryon suitcase. It was our FIRST international travel, and without my husband. I was nervous about the entire process but your course allayed my fears, and encouraged me to just do it.

I packed lighter than I ever have, I was organized with my items, I felt prepared to manage the more common travel hiccups, I was calmer and managed to go with the flow when those hiccups arrived! I’ve heard that Knowledge is power. I think that receiving knowledge that you amassed over the years empowered me to believe that I could do this- and I did!”

-Melinda Nakagawa, online student and founder of Sparkinnature.com

I’m so grateful that Christine has chosen to share her years of traveling experience and insights with her students!”

“I have lots of travel plans for this year. It may not be international, but these tips will come in handy as I plan, travel, make sketches, take photos, journal, and collect memories! Thanks, Christine! This was a lot of work to put this all together, and it is greatly appreciated! You are the best!”

– Eunice Creswell, course student

Here’s Some of the Trainings

Your Instructor

Hi, I’m Christine!

I’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to travel extensively – from Mexico to Peru, England to Turkey, Asia, and across the United States from Alaska to Hawaii as a nature tour guide and later solo to Costa Rica, Belize, Ecuador, and beyond. I’ve traveled for work, for birdwatching, for conferences, and for volunteering with wildlife rescue organizations.
I’ve been ziplining, SCUBA diving, horseback riding, caving, rappelling…all in the name of adventure…and all this AFTER the age of 50!
I used to be hesitant to travel without a partner but when I was catapulted into a single life I decided that I wasn’t gonna let that stop me from traveling. I’m sure glad I made that leap of faith and I want to help you do the same!
