About Me

Marissa has had a love for travel since an early age when her family would take camping adventures. It was then she learned the best trips are the ones you make memories on! In high school she took her first international trip. Without knowing anyone on the trip, she got to spend a week in Cambodia and a week in Thailand. Since these trips she has gotten her own family and done a lot more traveling!

Meet My Family

In 2013, she married her husband, Barnabas, whom she has known since 3rd grade. They now have two boys, a dog, a cat and a gecko. It is a privilege that everyone gets to work from home in her family either planning trips, running an IT company or homeschooling! The Browns now live in South Alabama and spend a lot of time visiting the beach (so they can give good beach tips!).

Marissa started her travel agency after wanting to bring in an income for her family while also having the flexibility to stay home with her boys. Her dream booking for a client would be a multi-generational cruise. Traveling with her own extended family has brought so many memories so to be able to provide that for a client would be a dream. Her family has a dream of visiting Madagascar - cause who doesn’t love lemurs! She has been told by her oldest that she isn’t allowed to visit Hawaii again without him so he has the travel bug as well.
