We inspire meaningful connections through luxury travel, weaving unforgettable experiences that celebrate the beauty of Italy, the charm of Venetian living, and the joy of family adventures. Our mission is to help others explore the world with love, unity, and a sense of discovery.

My name is Clarissa Gayton and I was born and raised in northern California. While doing a masters program in Ireland, I met my husband, who is from Venice. I’ve been on a journey to discover Venetian lifestyle ever since and I enjoy sharing my insights with others! I lived there for 3 years and we now split our time between California and Venice and I aim to help visitors experience the real Venice, not the Venice they read about on travel sites.

If you’ve found your way here, you’re in for a treat. As someone who splits time between California and Venice, I bring a unique perspective and insider knowledge of northern Italy and the broader European landscape. My family is a beautiful blend of Californian and Venetian, and I’m deeply passionate about Venice—its history, art, and vibrant culture. As a certified travel advisor, I draw on years of personal travel experience to curate bespoke itineraries, ensuring every trip is as unique as the traveler. From luxurious escapes with my husband to adventures with our sweet baby boy, I know every journey deserves a personalized touch. Let’s craft your unforgettable story together!
