Get to Know Duchess
Hello, I’m Duchess!
My name is Dana, but "Duchess" is what I am known as to my family and friends. My amazing grandson started calling me "Duchess," as a toddler, and it stuck! I am a retired Official Court Reporter and mother of three amazing children who are the light of my life.
My travels have taken me all over the United States, Europe, and the Caribbean. I have fallen in love with Europe. The history, culture, and traditions are so intriguing to me. Traveling has taught me so much over the years about myself. I have learned to step out of my comfort zone and open my heart to new cultures and experiences.
​
"Travel with Duchess" is your go-to location for information, itineraries, pictures, suggestions, and experiences of each destination I have traveled. I have spent countless hours over the years researching numerous websites to piece together my itineraries for each trip I have taken.
​
My extensive research into the culture, history, and ALL THINGS ROYAL has made each of my adventures magical. Knowing the history and events that occurred years ago behind each town, has led me to create a few "Themed Tours" for those who love history, enjoy the road less traveled, and to gain more knowledge along the way! I hope you will be able to use this site as you plan your next vacation.
​
From the mirrored hall of Versailles, medieval villages, battlefields and castles, I welcome you to follow me as "Duchess Travels." I truly believe traveling changes a person's entire perspective on life in such a fantastic way!
Please feel free to contact me and remember to enjoy the Journey!
