About Us
Hi! I’m Valerie Mendez, CEO & Founder of The Wander and Travel. I started this business with a dream and a deep passion for travel. Originally from Puerto Rico, I now call Seattle, WA home, where I live with my partner and our two kitties. When I’m not planning incredible trips, you’ll find me enjoying Halloween year-round, sipping coffee, reading, or geeking out over Star Wars and Marvel.
I can’t wait to help you plan your next adventure—whether it's a dreamy getaway or a bucket-list trip, I’m here to make it effortless and unforgettable!
