“Where are you from?” is the question I get asked the most, ever since I could remember uttering my first words. And it’s always been a complicated answer; how much time do you have?

Before we get into that, here’s the Sarah Casewit behind the brand. I’m a travel designer with 16 years of experience creating journeys that transform you and change the way you see the world. My itineraries are designed with depth, heart and soul, and go far beyond what your typical travel advisor is offering.

How? Now that answer takes us back to the first question. I have my parents to thank for giving me the opportunity of a life lived around the world since day 1 on Earth. This allows me to tap into different pools of knowledge from within and design absurdly beautiful itineraries. Born in Marrakech, Morocco, I’ve lived across five continents, raised globally by a mélange of cultures and traditions that give me a unique perspective on how to travel well.

I am fluent in Arabic, French, and Spanish. From the souks of Marrakech, temples of Chennai, tango milongas of Buenos Aires, to the Tramuntana mountains of Mallorca, I’ve built relationships with artisans, chefs, musicians, hoteliers, and storytellers, offering my clients exclusive access and culturally immersive experiences that feed the soul.

My career began in Buenos Aires in 2012, where I played a key role at a luxury tour operator and award-winning venture. I later co-founded a pioneering travel company that helped pave the way for women in the travel industry, and most recently held a senior consultant role at renowned luxury properties and travel firms, including an executive position at a leading travel tech firm in California.

Featured in The New York Times, Condé Nast Traveler, National Geographic, Travel + Leisure, and Departures, I specialize in life-changing trips tailored to inspire and connect.

This is the culmination of everything I’ve learned: a commitment to journeys rooted in cultural fluency, genuine connection, and the kind of access that can only come from decades of global experience. This is travel that respects tradition while embracing discovery, designed for those who seek more than just a destination.

I love what I do and refuse to give you the surface version.

What’s with the ?

In Arabic, letters have names. It’s cute. “A” is called Alif. “J” is called Jeem. “S” is called Seen. Introducing the letter S in Arabic, the symbol behind my name.

You’ll find me at the opposite end of AI, where warmth, cultural fluency and intuition play a strategic role in my travel planning and decision making. In a world that is overly predictable and lacking in nuance, I bring in soul and spirit.

Led by Intention

Authenticity Over Algorithms.

Always Beyond the Obvious.

Thanks to my life experience living in Marrakech, Fez, Rabat, Madurai, Washington DC, Damascus, Beirut, Cairo, Buenos Aires, and Mallorca, I can open doors that others can’t. My friends become your friends. My connections are a result of years of collaboration with institutions around the world and I love surprising my travelers with insider access to people.

Oh Yes, It’s Personal.

Travel is deeply personal to me. It's woven into how I see the world and how I continue to learn from it. I feel honored to connect with each traveler, crafting itineraries that reflect their values and aspirations. While I design luxury journeys across the globe, to me, true luxury isn’t measured by thread counts or Michelin stars alone (though I know where to find them). It's found in meaningful moments shaped by cultural fluency, thoughtful care, genuine experience, and above all, instinct.
