MEET THE TRAVEL GIRL

Greetings! I'm Lisa Bavuso Kocher, a luxury travel consultant and member of the Signature Travel Network. I design one-of-a-kind, once-in-a-lifetime trips for my clients with exclusive Signature benefits – and personal recommendations from my own travels. Exploring new destinations is my passion. I've had the privilege of visiting more than 30 countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, and beyond.

I'm not one to sit idle when I'm at home in South Jersey. I host a biweekly radio show, "The Chit Chat Cafe," and serve as brand ambassador for Le Mystere and On Gossamer Luxury Intimates. Since 2013, I've overseen merchandising and marketing efforts for their products to department stores including Bloomingdale's and Nordstrom. I've been married to the love of my life, Bud, for more than 30 years and have three beautiful adult children: Joseph, Adam, and Elizabeth.

I guess I was always meant to fly, baby, fly. I was one of the original "Liberty Belles" cheering for the Philadelphia Eagles. I stepped up in 2010 to serve as Vice President of the Philadelphia Professional Football Cheerleader Alumni Association, where friendship, philanthropy, and good spirit go hand-in-hand. Are YOU ready to fly? Give me your hand, grab your passport, and let me lead you to your greatest adventure. The world is waiting for you.

Check out my very first passport! I still remember when I got this. I thought to myself, "I'd rather have a passport full of stamps than a house full of things."

This was at the Caneel Bay Resort in the U.S. Virgin Islands. I was running out of a room that I snuck into while housekeeping staff was cleaning for a site inspection. I was always searching for an adventure – and still am!
