👋 MEET YOUR HOST - JANETTE JAHODA

Your neighbor, travel expert, and founder of "Explore The World Travel Club" with 20+ years helping travelers discover the world.

Here's what makes this Italy trip special - I'm not just your travel professional, I'm your neighbor who'll be right there with you, experiencing every magical moment together. After sending hundreds of clients to Italy, I wanted to find an itinerary that contained the best authentic experiences and gems instead of the typical Rome-Florence-Venice 7-day exhausting itinerary.

Tagging along is my husband Steve - we've been married a few decades and he's learned that resistance is futile when I get the travel bug! I'm that travel nerd who gets genuinely excited about 25-year-aged balsamic vinegar, Italian leather purses, and the perfect gelato shop.

What you get: Professional expertise with a neighbor's heart. I handle every detail, but I'm also the person who believes life's too short for boring travel and awkward tour bus small talk.

Ready to discover authentic Italy with people who'll actually listen to your travel stories? That's exactly why I created this club!
