Norm Buchbinder
Owner/Travel AdvisorI traveled extensively both personally and during my 30 year career in financial services and always found the world to be a beautiful palette of cultures that needed to be admired and experienced. As my children were growing up, we traveled often as a family to wondrous places, and my heart warmed watching the excitement on their faces as they saw glaciers for the first time or made new friends in a foreign land. With my passion for travel and my sentimentality for the wonderful memories we created over the years, I embarked on a second career in travel to assist others with similar experiences.
"Dream Vacations Start Here!” perfectly conveys how I view my role in taking your travel bucket list from ideas to reality. I will facilitate the entire process for you and give you the attention you need and want! I look forward to working with you!

With my first overseas trip at just three years of age, I’ve had the travel bug for a very long time. A 30-plus year career in the legal and tech consulting industries has seen me travel to six of the seven continents (the seventh is coming soon!), and when I wasn’t traveling for work, I found destinations for my family to explore and enjoy. I’ve long been my family’s go-to person for travel planning, and my second career as a travel advisor enables me to bring my passion for travel to help clients experience the wonders and culture (and food!) the world has to offer. Where can I help you explore next?
