🎒🚚 Move-in day for my daughter Ceili at TMU was supposed to be exciting, emotional, and maybe even a little nostalgic.
Instead, it turned into a masterclass in handling the unexpected.
Here’s what we walked into:
- A squatter still in the apartment when we arrived (plunger, broken chairs, and all).
- Our freight elevator — booked a month in advance and confirmed twice — suddenly cancelled three days prior because of a holiday.
- Endless trips hauling boxes across a busy street, hoping an elevator would eventually take us to the right floor.Â
It wasn’t pretty. But with teamwork — thanks to my older daughter Ciara, her boyfriend Nick, and my husband Bill — plus bleach, Drano, and sheer determination, we scrubbed, furnished, and transformed the apartment into a home. By the end of the day, it looked less like
a student crash pad and more like a space for young professionals.
And here’s the connection to travel: this is exactly what I do every day as a luxury travel advisor. ✨
Because let’s be honest: travel plans don’t always run smoothly. Flights get cancelled. Rooms aren’t ready. Weather doesn’t cooperate. In those moments, you need someone in your corner who knows how to pivot, negotiate, and make it right.
That’s where I come in. My role is to troubleshoot the chaos so you can return to what matters: enjoying the journey. Whether it’s moving day or moving people across the globe, I help clean up the mess, smooth out the bumps, and make sure the final result is seamless.
That’s the Lush Life Travel difference. 🌍💙
