Meet the Founder
Hey there! I’m Laurie
My roots are firmly planted in the South, where magnolias, sweet tea, and gumbo intertwine seamlessly with the very fabric of life. But deep down, I’ve always been a planner and an adventurer. My passion for experiencing new destinations ignited many years ago with my first big escapade to Hawaii and Australia. At that point, I was completely hooked! Following that, I embarked on a journey that granted me the opportunity to live abroad. This experience served as a springboard for incredible adventures across Europe and Asia. While I have long since returned to the United States, my passion for creating new experiences through global travel continues to motivate me to explore even more of the world. My travels have not been a mission to merely collect passport stamps; but instead to create once-in-a-lifetime experiences.

Connecting Dreams to Experiences
At Spediro, we believe travel isn’t just about ticking off destinations; it’s about the stories etched into our lifelong memories — the laughter shared with fellow travelers and newfound friends, the incredible views at Machu Picchu, the sun setting over the Sahara while perched atop a camel, the joy giving an elephant a mud bath in Chiang Mai, and more – after the journey ends.

Morocco
With coasts on both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, and only an hour’s ferry ride from Spain, Morocco is a rich and varied mix of cultures. The Arab, Moorish, African, and European influences merge as much in its architecture and languages as in the cuisine it is famous for.
Northern Lights in Iceland
The best places to visit in Iceland range from powerful waterfalls to the vast glaciers that can be seen from space, and downtown Reykjavik, with its independent shops, street art, and café culture. There are ice-capped volcanoes, black-sand beaches, and serrated mountains, with offbeat museums and microbreweries among the best places to visit, too.
Portugal
The best places to visit in Portugal include its multifaceted destinations that captivate travelers from around the world. The capital, Lisbon, enchants visitors with its dramatic riverside setting, rich history, stunning architecture, and one of Europe’s top culinary scenes. Porto serves as the entrance to the picturesque Douro Valley, renowned for its undulating hills and iconic wine regions.
