I’m Kelly – travel advisor and founder of Passports & Cappuccinos.
Born and raised in the Chicago area, I now live in Milwaukee with my husband and our two littles.
Travel has always been second nature to me. Since my first international trip at 16, I’ve explored more than 15 countries and have always loved discovering new places - and planning every detail along the way.
I started Passports & Cappuccinos in 2016 as a creative outlet to share travel stories and everyday moments with family and friends. In 2020, I turned my passion project into a full-service travel advising business.
As a Travel Advisor with Fora, a Virtuoso affiliate, I help clients plan everything from quick weekend getaways to once-in-a-lifetime adventures.
While custom trip planning is my main focus, you’ll also find travel guides, templates, and tips throughout my website and blog.
Thanks so much for being here. Ready to plan your next trip? Let’s chat!

Passports & Cappuccinos was originally created as a travel & lifestyle blog in 2016; a place to share my travels and day-to-day musings. But, when I was laid off from my advertising job in 2020, I decided to turn my creative outlet into a full-service travel advising agency.
While travel planning is now my main focus, you can still find travel related tips and tricks, as well as my latest travel adventures on the blog! And, if you follow me on Instagram, you will likely see a glimpse of my home life and what my day-to-day looks like as a work-from-home mama to my son, Jack, and daughter, Leah. I hope to inspire people to seek out the new, and become nostalgic for the old and familiar. To take risks, and experience things out of the ordinary.

After our first family vacation (and first time flying with a baby), I thought it was time I shared my ultimate packing list for babies & toddlers!
