Salt Sanctuary Soul

Salt Sanctuary Soul is an experiential travel company that focuses on crafting trips for hungry, mindful and curious travelers. We work together with our clients to provide a comprehensive trip, yet á la carte, approach to their travels. We live for bringing people together - near and far. This is woven into the partners that we choose to work with, the authenticity with which we create, and our hand-held approach to travel. No matter how you are traveling with us, you can see this in the detailed approach that we take to each upcoming trip. Know that you’ll be supporting small and family-run businesses, local artisans, wellness professionals, unique talent and community cheerleaders - to name a few.

This fascination of connection is what has kept Courtney in the travel industry for a decade (and counting!). As the owner of Salt Sanctuary Soul, Courtney believes that travel should feel good—in an inner and outer sense—which reigns true in the authentic experiences she helps craft. As she likes to dig into the hyper-local scenes, as a traveler on a trip with her, you’ll experience an emphasis on the local bites and sips, ooh-ing and aah-ing at the local history, art and culture and, of course, unique opportunities for movement sprinkled throughout your holiday. 

While traveling, Courtney is always searching high and low for a breathtaking (sunset) view, stellar service and eating where the locals go. Travels aside, she’s a true Midwestern gal (but always dreaming of Hawaii beaches…), a textbook Pisces and collector of passport stamps. She believes in a healthy glass of wine, a strong yoga practice, lake days and giving endless cuddles to her two children and lovable Labrador.
