Travel Advisor from Crystal, Minnesota

Hello!

I’m Devin Hanson

Growing up along the shores of Lake Superior in the land of 10,000 lakes, I developed a deep appreciation for water, nature, and adventure. This passion led to a 20-year career in outdoor education and running residential and day camps, where I mastered the art of planning seamless, enriching experiences for families and groups.
Now, as a travel advisor, I specialize in helping busy moms—women who seem to have it all together but know the value of expert guidance—create unforgettable vacations. My goal is to ease the mental load of planning, offering creative ideas and handling all the details so you can focus on enjoying your time with your family.
I live in the Twin Cities with my two teenage daughters, and I understand the juggle of schedules, activities, and family priorities. Whether I’m cheering them on at volleyball and swim meets or supporting their leadership in Job’s Daughters, I’ve learned how important it is to carve out intentional time for connection and exploration. That’s why I’m passionate about helping other families make the most of their precious time together.
Let’s plan your next adventure—one that’s as effortless as it is unforgettable.

I love to travel and have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to do so throughout my life. From backcountry canoeing in the BWCA along the border of Minnesota and Canada, living in Europe for 5 months, to cruising with Disney, exploring the world is one of my passions.

As the mom of two teenage daughters I now have the opportunity to share my passion with them and help them discover the world and all it has to offer. I love watching the expression on their faces when they are discovering somewhere new – be it the ruins in Cozumel or simply walking around Nassau. All of these experiences open their eyes to different ways of thinking and remind them that they are a part of something greater.

What My Clients Have to Say

Amazing Vacation!!

Thank you Devin for recommending the Haven Riviera Cancun!! Our all inclusive vacation included many highlights. Every staff member was kind and intentive. The service was incredible. The food at the resort was wonderful! We enjoyed each of their restaurants. One of my personal favorites was the Chef’s table at Olio’s and the hibachi dinner and show at the Japanese restaurant. We also used the spa and enjoyed massage and hydrotherapy. We will return to this resort in the future.

Gayle

Mediterranean Cruise

We tried a new vacation destination this year & Devin helped us every step of the way. We have never been to Europe so planning this experience was quite daunting. Devin was there to guide us in all the decisions. Thank you, Devin, for your expertise. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Kathy

Considerate and attentive!

Devin helped us create an amazing week in Orlando experiencing. Universal and Disney!

She took the time to acquire all of our family members hopes and individual interests and incorporated them into a well balanced itinerary! She sourced to best hotels and perks for our interests too! Most importantly Devin took lots of time to demystify all the execution “secrets” and to share best practices to allow for me to feel knowledgeable and equipped to pivot from the plan if the situation warranted. The whole trip was wonderful and because of all her hard work I was able to just enjoy along side my family! We are so grateful for this extraordinary opportunity!

Deanna
