Hi, I’m Hallie! My love for travel started early, when my family lived in the UK during my childhood. I’ve been chasing that sense of curiosity and wanderlust ever since.
After graduating from UNC Chapel Hill (go Heels!), I moved to South Korea, where I spent several years living and traveling throughout Asia. That time shaped not only my love for adventurous travel but also my deep appreciation for thoughtful, well-designed itineraries, and led to the creation of my travel brand, Hal Your Travel Pal.
I believe travel is truly transformative - it shifts your perspective, deepens your connection to the world, and stays with you long after you return home. My goal is to combine firsthand experience with a highly personalized approach to take the stress out of planning and create trips that feel seamless, intentional, and unforgettable.
The best trips balance structure and flexibility, so everything flows seamlessly while still leaving room for the moments that surprise and delight you.
Travel Specialties: Asia Travel, Adventure Travel, Bucket List Travel, Solo Travel, Couples & Small Groups
The Galápagos! I’m an advanced scuba diver, and the idea of diving alongside some of the world’s most unique marine life has been at the top of my list for years.
A trip to Italy when I was 8 years old. I ate not one but two gelatos a day, played with local kids despite the language barrier, and visited Star Wars filming locations. I came home absolutely obsessed with travel, and I’ve been hooked ever since.
Honestly, it wasn’t just one trip, but the five years I spent living in the UK as a child. Growing up immersed in another culture while traveling around Europe with my family completely shaped my worldview and sparked the wanderlust that still drives me today.
