Luxury without pretense. Stories with substance.
Hi, I’m Julie, a travel advisor, writer, and quiet luxury enthusiast.
I created Curated Cruising because I believe travel should feel effortless, not overwhelming.
As a caregiver, business owner, and planner by nature, I know what it means to handle everything. So when I travel, I don’t want to lift a finger. I want to be taken care of, thoughtfully, beautifully, and without fuss. That’s the kind of experience I write about, and that’s what I help others find.
This site was designed for travelers who prefer discretion over flash, service over spectacle, and substance over sales.
You’ll find:
Editorial-style cruise features focused on ultra-luxury and expedition lines
Planning insights with an emphasis on personalization and ease
- Destination deep dives that go beyond the typical port reviews
- Suite Notes, a weekly newsletter for discerning travelers
If you’re dreaming of a cruise that feels both rare and refined, you’re in the right place.
