About Overpacked Carry-On
Overpacked Carry-On is where real travel experience meets thoughtful trip planning.
I don’t just share destinations. I experience them, document what's actually worth it, and help you turn those ideas into trips that feel seamless in real life.​
From detailed travel guides to personalized trip planning, everything here is rooted in real experiences, not just research.
​
Whether you're saving ideas for later or ready to plan your next trip, you're in the right place.

Lacey, Travel Advisor and Blogger
Focus: Caribbean, Central America, U.S., Hawaii and cruises.
I’m Lacey, the founder of Overpacked Carry-On and a certified travel advisor.
​
I plan trips, but I also take them. A lot of them.
From ziplining in Costa Rica to site visits at resorts across the Caribbean, I’m constantly experiencing destinations the same way my clients would, paying attention to what’s actually worth it and what’s not.
​
I focus on trips that feel easy, well-paced, and worth the time and money, whether that’s a Caribbean getaway, a Costa Rica adventure, a Hawaii trip, or a cruise.
​
When I recommend something, it’s because I’ve either done it myself or taken the time to properly vet it.
