Hello, and welcome to Discover with Sam!

I share local experiences from around the world. At Discover with Sam, I practice social impact travel, exploring and supporting local communities, economies, and ecosystems in mindful and respectful ways. Since I'm a local government nerd, I value local, cultural experiences over tourist attractions or luxury travel (but that's not to say I don't do those too 😉). I'm currently based in Washington, DC, soaking in some sunshine after spending 8 years in-love with a very snowy Syracuse, NY. 

Let us plan your next trip!

Planning a trip can be incredibly stressful. There are so many details and logistics that go into creating your perfect travel experience. 
Let us take care of it for you!
