About Betty
Always exploring. Still curious.
I am Betty, a travel creator and founder who has explored more than 70 countries. I share the hotels, meals, personal style, and local details that make a place worth knowing.
Based between Los Angeles and Tulum, and frequently somewhere in between.

How I got here
A career built in tech. A life rebuilt around travel.
I spent years building my career in Silicon Valley before trading corporate life for work that felt more aligned with who I am. A lifelong curiosity about the world became Nomoon Travel, followed by Go Tulum Travel, Tulum Yachts, and Nomoon Studio.
In my 50s, I care less about collecting destinations and more about knowing them well. Away from travel, I fly vintage Cessnas, drive manual cars, suit up as a 501st Legion Stormtrooper, and mentor UC Berkeley students through Cal Alumni.
My point of view
Travel isn’t just where you go. It’s how it’s done.
A great hotel changes the rhythm of a trip.
I look for distinctive design, genuine service, and a strong sense of place.
The best meals usually come with a story.
Food is how I understand a destination, from market mornings to long dinners.
Local knowledge beats a checklist.
The most memorable experiences often begin with someone who knows the place well.
