Born and raised in northern New Jersey, Patty developed a love of travel at a young age through family trips across Europe, the Caribbean, and the American West.

Her passion for exploring the world continued at Bucknell University, where she studied abroad in Australia and traveled extensively throughout the Asia-Pacific region. After graduation, she spent much of her free time traveling and became a trusted resource for friends and family seeking destination advice and travel recommendations.

Email Kaylee

Born and raised in Minnesota, Kaylee’s passion for travel began shortly after college when a pilot in her family generously gave her a companion pass. With that opportunity, she set off on her first solo adventure through Paris, Brussels, and Amsterdam, and the travel bug has never left her since. Travel has remained a constant in her life, both personally and professionally. Over the years, Kaylee has lived in several cities across the U.S., eventually making her way out west to Bend, Oregon. Kaylee has worked in the luxury travel industry in New York and joins the Local Foreigner team from her home in Bend. She finds the greatest joy in exploring the world alongside family and friends, and the most rewarding part of her work is designing meaningful, seamless vacations that create lifelong memories for her clients and their families.
