What makes the perfect vacation?

Is it the destination? The hotel? The food? The activities?

Or could it have more to do with understanding what kind of traveler you are?

In this Season 2 finale of Explorations All Over, I sit down with travel advisor Dee Koger to explore how our personalities, preferences, and travel styles shape the vacations we choose—and the memories we bring home.

Our conversation covers everything from family travel and multigenerational vacations to cruises, independent travel, and the questions Dee asks her clients before recommending a destination. Along the way, we discuss why two people can take the exact same trip and have completely different experiences, and why your favorite travel memory may reveal more about your ideal vacation than your bucket list ever could.

Whether you work with a travel advisor or plan every detail yourself, this conversation may change the way you think about travel planning.

Thank you for joining me throughout Season 2. From Christmas Markets and Antarctica to Ancient Faiths, Uganda, French Polynesia, Turkey, and now this conversation with Dee, it's been an incredible journey.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode and whether you'd like to hear more conversations like this in future seasons.
