What a pleasure to meet you!
Theresa,
Owner
Hello! I’m Theresa, owner of FPT, and I am thrilled to have you here! Over the years, I have passed through countless airports, experienced (and survived) Greyhound, hopped an Amtrak train from state to state, journeyed by dogsled, and even trekked up the world's tallest free-standing mountain! I would tell you today just how many countries I have traveled to, but that number is always changing! I'm an experienced traveler, and I translate that experience into knowledge and understanding of what it takes to have a peaceful and exciting venture into the unknown.
As a mother of two, I also share my kids’ childlike curiosity to know more about this stunning world we live in. We are rooted in Michigan, but we explore as often as we can. Over the past few years, we have visited over 40 states and many countries. Our goal is to check off all 50 by the end of 2027! Feel free to follow some of our travels on Instagram at @SingleMotherAdventures and #WintersFamily50StateAdventures. Outside of travel, we love spending time at the lake, attending sporting events, and playing board games.
When I am not traveling (solo, with kids, or in a group), you will most likely find me eating pizza, working on a puzzle, or watching Netflix with a glass of vino in my hand. I rarely say no to a new experience, and I challenge myself to do and see as much as I can in this life.
It brings me joy to have you here, spending time with me and exploring my pages. My hope is to inspire you, become friends with you, and to someday share stories of your adventures. I can’t wait to talk to you about your travel dreams and plan your next trip! If you would like to know more about some of my travels, be sure to visit my blog.

Hello, I'm Anneke.
As a kid growing up in Michigan, my family vacationed often in Florida. I loved exploring on the beach and leaving with pockets full of treasures from the sea (still do). I am a naturally curious person, so my interests are easily piqued in new surroundings.
I am a single mom of four adult children and one middle schooler. He has accompanied me on many sunrise hikes so we could sip on hot cocoa as the sun came up. We are nature enthusiasts and love the outdoors. I’m excited to share more travel with my children in the years to come.
My top 3 favorite trips have been:
- Spending a week exploring the perimeter of Iceland.
- Road-tripping through the Netherlands and seeing where my grandparents lived.(great story of accidentally finding relatives while there!)
- Hiking to the bottom of the Grand Canyon to the Havasupai land and spending time at Havasu Falls.
I take great joy in planning out trips and meeting the needs of my clients. I pretty much live vicariously through everyone who is traveling, so I want you to have the best experience!
My bucket list & travel goals
See the Northern Lights in Alaska • Ride a camel in Morocco • Have tea and biscuits in London • Walk along the Giant's Causeway in Ireland • Visit the Shire in New Zealand • Watch the Cow Parade in Wengen Switzerland • Stay at Giraffe Manor in Kenya • See the bioluminescent bay in Puerto Rico
Michele,
Michigan West Side Agent
Hello, I'm Michele. I have been a lover of all things travel for as long as I can remember. My favorite memories growing up were always from vacations that we took together as a family. I find that vacations are a great place for cultivating relationships. They allow for relaxation and bonding to happen, as well as creating new experiences. I find travel so invigorating and inspiring. Learning about new cultures and exploring new places is what excites me! I am always up for the next adventure! :)
My husband and I have been friends since high school, married nearly 20 years, and have 2 wonderful children. We love to stay active together as a family. We live on a lake, and you will find us out on the boat most of the summer!
Some of my favorite travel memories include wine tasting in Tuscany, wandering the streets of Venice, venturing into the Blue Grotto in Capri, sunsets from the infinity pool in Santorini, swimming with dolphins in Mexico and hiking to secret waterfalls in Hawaii, among many other adventures!
I am so happy to here with all these amazing women, doing what we love most, booking trips! I enjoy making my clients happy by helping them create the perfect itinerary. Hearing how much they loved their vacation makes me smile!
My bucket list & travel goals
Stay in an overwater bungalow in Bora Bora • Go on an African Safari • Visit Oktoberfest in Germany • Hike in Switzerland • Scuba dive in the Great Barrier Reef

Hey y'all, I'm Chelsea. My fondest memories growing up have always been our family vacations to the beach and mountains. So, when my husband and I got married, we started traveling to different places. Our love for travel grew and so did the number of places we have gone. I'm always looking for the next adventure. I have hiked in numerous states and countries, skydived in Canada, and forever looking for the next exhilarating experience. However, I also enjoy the slow pace and relaxation of taking in the amazing views this world has to offer. I am an experienced traveler with multiple countries under my belt, but plenty more on my list to see. I have a strong case of wanderlust!
It makes me happy to see others experiencing new places. I live through them as they travel. It is my absolute pleasure to plan and navigate the ins and outs of my client's vacations.
To travel, to experience, and to learn – that is to live.
My bucket list & travel goals
To see 40 countries before I'm 40 • Visit Antarctica • African Safari and visit Giraffe Manor in Nairobi
