Knowing what to wear in Paris in fall comes down to one truth: the season shifts noticeably between September and November, and your suitcase should keep pace. Paris dresses for the weather with more polish than most cities. Parisian women rarely look underdressed, even in the rain. Plan for smart layers and shoes built for […]
Here is the question I get more than almost any other: is it actually worth using a travel agent for luxury travel, or is that just something travel agents say? If you have wondered whether a luxury travel agent really makes a difference, you are not alone. I just got back from Virtuoso Travel Week […]
Is Emily in Paris accurate? The honest answer is: not especially. That is the most useful thing a traveler can know before landing at Charles de Gaulle. The show is ending. Season 6, confirmed as the final season, is filming now across Paris, Greece, and Monaco, with a release expected in late 2026 or early […]
Most travel conversations start with “where do you want to go?” That is the wrong question to start with this summer. Instead, focus on where US dollar goes furthest 2026 for the best value. The right one is: where does your money actually buy something extraordinary right now? The math has shifted. And it has […]
Some destinations get a quiet renaissance every few years when a film or a show reminds the world how beautiful they always were. Greece, it turns out, has had several. Mamma Mia did it in 2008. The sequel did it again in 2018. Sex and the City’s Greek getaway arc added their own layers. Together, […]
Some shows make you want to watch the next episode. White Lotus makes you want to book a flight. The urge for set-jetting Thailand vacations has never been stronger. Season 3 did something to Thailand that no tourism campaign could manufacture — it made the country feel like a world people genuinely needed to step […]
I am going to tell you all about what I learned at the travel agent forum in Las Vegas regarding luxury travel. I had the opportunity to attend a travel agent conference for training and to meet with various suppliers, as well as have one-on-one meetings with them. I am very honored to have been […]
Did you watch all the Super Bowl hopela? How many Taylor Swift sightings did you count? But most importantly, what was happening outside the Superdome in terms of visits to New Orleans. I got to see lots of people, influencers strutting their fashion, showing off their food, and, well, it really inspired me. So New […]

Travel is most meaningful when it connects you to a place, its culture, its stories, the scenes that made you want to go in the first place. That's the standard at Jet Setting with Me, whether that means following a filming location through the streets of Paris or stepping into the London that exists between the pages and the screen. No generic itineraries. No trips built from a template.
Michele Schwartz has been in hospitality longer than most travel advisors have been traveling. She started as a Walt Disney World cast member, built and sold a content business that held Page 1 on Google, and has spent the last several years designing travel rooted in real experience. She holds CTA and VTA credentials, is affiliated with Virtuoso travel and knows the difference between a trip that looks good on paper and one that actually delivers.
Every recommendation comes from having actually been there. Michele travels the destinations, sails the ships, and walks the locations her clients ask about. That's the standard — and it's what separates a trip that's booked from one that's remembered. The work is in the details. The experience is yours.
