Got a suitcase and a dream?
There are places to see, foods to try, beaches to sit on, ships to sail, memories to make, and probably at least one questionable souvenir to bring home!
I’m here to help you get there.
Let's take that “we should really go somewhere” conversation and turn it into “WE’RE GOING!”
Wherever life takes you… Carrie on & Explore
Hey Y'all, I'm Carrie
From farm life to faraway places… I’m always ready to explore.
Independent Travel Advisor with ForaCarrie HammondHi, I’m Carrie! I’m a wife, mom, farm girl, travel lover, and a little bit of a “let’s just go!” kind of person. I love cruising, exploring new places, making memories with my favorite people, and finding the fun in the journey. I started Carrie On & Explore because I believe life is too short to keep saying “we should really go somewhere.” So whether you’re ready to book the cruise, escape to the beach, or finally check that dream destination off your list—I’m ready to help you make it happen. Pack your bags… adventure is calling!
So... Where are we going?
The hardest part is deciding where to go. I’ll help with the rest!
Frequently asked questions
Before you pack your bags…
Here are a few things you might want to know.
Why should I use a travel advisor when I can book online myself?
Because you can do it yourself—but you don't have to! I'm here to save you time, help you sort through the options, handle the details, and be a resource before, during, and after your trip. You get to enjoy the fun part while I help with the planning part.
Do you only book cruises?
Not at all! Cruises are definitely something I love, but I can help with all kinds of travel—from all-inclusive resorts and family vacations to romantic getaways, group trips, and bucket-list adventures.
Does it cost anything to work with you?
In many cases, my travel planning services are complimentary because I’m compensated by the travel suppliers I work with. Some more complex or specialized planning may involve a planning fee, which I’ll always discuss with you upfront.
Can you help me if I already know where I want to go?
Absolutely! If you already have the destination picked, I can help with the rest—from finding the right property or cruise to sorting through options and making sure the details come together.
What if I have no idea where I want to go?
Honestly… those can be some of my favorite trips to plan! Tell me what you're looking for—beach, adventure, relaxation, family fun, food, sightseeing, or just an escape—and we'll find somewhere that fits.
I found a trip online. Can you help me book it?
Most likely! Send it my way. I can take a look at the options and help you determine whether it's a good fit and what other options may be available.
What happens after I fill out the intake form?
I'll review your information and reach out so we can talk about what you're looking for. From there, we'll start turning your “we should really go somewhere” into “WE'RE GOING!"
