Amy Koenig is a chief passport stamp collector, foodie, marketer and founder of Sojourn, a Destination Experience Company.

During her nearly 20 years of business travel as a Marketing Executive, Amy was able to circle the globe and develop a keen passion for new people, places and things. She now has great appreciation for travelling for pleasure, taking alongside her family and friends along for the adventure.

With her love of exceptional food, wine and unique experiences, she ensures to layer in thoughtful considerations to ensure those elements of joy are woven into all of her global travels.

She designed Sojourn as a way for people to experience destinations with luxury, authenticity, and connectivity. An opportunity to have more meaningful travel, to allow travelers to leave feeling they have deep roots within those destinations, and to allow those experiences to transform themselves in positive ways.

In addition to Sojourn, Amy owns the small boutique integrated marketing firm, Intellective Marketing. Just as she connects people to places, she connects people to brands – making a deeper, more successful consumer experience.

When not jetting off, Amy enjoys time with her family, entertaining friends, watching any Chicago sports team, catching a Dave Matthews concert, and loving on her dog, Wrigley.

Stephanie's passion for traveling was instilled in her at a young age. Her family took numerous family vacations every year growing up, her mom always including something unique and special. Stephanie now brings that tradition into her own travels, making sure she includes something that makes each trip memorable.

She is a meticulous travel planner, detailed oriented, and always has a plan but is never afraid to drop it all for a spontaneous opportunity. She believes the best part of traveling is immersing yourself in local life, often walking double digit miles just to take it all in.  She often takes inspiration from her love of history and literature when planning her next adventures.

In her downtime, Stephanie is off exploring used bookstores to add to her ever growing library, writing about anything and everything, or hanging out with her brothers.
