A Little About Us
Stacey Baker
Owner & Travel Advisor
As a travel advisor, I strive to put my clients' needs and preferences at the forefront of every decision I make as I craft each itinerary, creating a seamless, tailor-made journey. The foundations of my travel planning approach rest upon relationships, organization, resourcefulness, and hard work. I believe that being honest and transparent are vital for cultivating lasting relationships with both my clients and my travel partners.
Apart from receiving kind words from those I have assisted, the greatest compliment I receive from my clients is their choice to return to me for their future vacations, valuing my expertise and trusting my professional opinion.
I am genuinely grateful for the chance to be a travel advisor, and I am dedicated to providing exceptional service.
Fred Baker
Co-Owner & Travel Advisor
As a seasoned traveler with a passion for connecting with people, exploration, and facilitating meaningful experiences, my journey has been enriched by countless encounters and awe-inspiring destinations. Having explored the globe extensively and led over 30 groups on transformative mission trips and leisure adventures, I consider myself fortunate to have witnessed the beauty and diversity of our world firsthand.
Beyond the allure of exotic locations and breathtaking landscapes, what truly drives me is the opportunity to connect individuals to the aspects of travel that resonate most deeply with them: their faith, history, or personal values.
The expressions of gratitude from those who acknowledge my kind and attentive disposition, along with my genuine interest in listening to their stories, are treasured by me. These qualities are close to my heart, and I strive to exemplify them in every interaction I have. My goal is not just to facilitate travel arrangements, but to go beyond the superficial, enabling people to forge deeper connections with their surroundings and with themselves.

Who knew naming a business would be harder than naming our children? We wanted something that had an iconic image, was easy spell, and had meaning. It was not easy!
But why a dogwood? Besides it being my favorite spring flower, it also has Christian symbolism of rebirth and resurrection; of purity and strength. As we serve our clients and others in the travel industry, we want to be a reflection of Christ’s love for the world.
Why incorporate “designs” into the business name? Unlike travel agencies of days gone by, we do not simply take a customer’s order. Similar to an interior designer or a landscape artists, we listen carefully to our clients dreams before using our expertise and industry connections to craft something extraordinary.
