I’m back from the high seas (and the go-karts). 🏎️ But this isn't just a trip report; it's a love letter to the "Gaggle." We need to talk about why the glossy brochures are wrong about who a "Luxury Traveler" is, and why "Approachable Luxury" means you can wear a Target sundress to the Ritz and still belong.

I have a rule in my business: I don't book anything I wouldn't sleep in myself. It exists because of one rainy night in Oakland, a stained wall, and a useless 800-number. Here is why "Cheap" is actually the most expensive way to travel.
