Hello and welcome to my blog! I’m Karen Boss – owner of KBoss Travel by Dream Vacations. As a Navy veteran, I developed a travel bug early in life and my love of travel has grown exponentially ever since. I now have the pleasure of planning travel every day!

There are a lot of great travel agents out there. How do you choose one? You can ask what type of travel they specialize in and see if it aligns with your travel goals. Also, ask what type of training they participate in and certifications they earn to keep their skills current. I am always working on continuing education to assure I can give the highest level of service to my clients.

I specialize in resorts in the Caribbean and Mexico as well as cruising. With that being said, I work with my vendors and suppliers on land tours and vacations all over the world and take as much training as possible to keep my knowledge base strong.
