Live Local Travel Far is my love letter to the world—born from a lifetime of storytelling, globe-trotting, and a passion for sharing beauty in all its forms. I’m Jeanette Wages, a travel designer affiliated with Fora and Virtuoso, and whether you’re planning a honeymoon drenched in Mediterranean magic, a cherry blossom romance in Japan, or a soulful solo journey, I believe every trip should feel like poetry in motion.

Clients come to me for seamless, deeply personal itineraries—crafted from years of wandering, food writing, and a commitment to finding the story in every moment. Honeymoons and milestone getaways are my specialty, especially those that wind through sun-kissed coastlines, tiny trattorias, and candlelit terraces in places like Greece, Italy, and Spain. Beyond Europe, I have a soft spot (and a loyal following) for designing transformative trips to Japan, where timing is everything and every detail matters.

But travel shapes us at every stage: as a former solo wanderer and now a mom journeying with my adventurous toddler, I know how to balance discovery with comfort—and how to create experiences that delight every kind of traveler.

With every booking, you get my full attention, my insider network, and my devotion to your story. Let’s build something beautiful—filled with flavor, wonder, and the freedom to live local and travel far.
