Meet Jen

The trip should feel like it was made for you.

Hi, I’m Jen. I’m a Gen Xer, a lifelong trip planner, and someone who has traveled enough to know that the best trips aren’t defined by how many places you check off a list.

I love finding the right hotel, the restaurant you’ll still talk about afterward, and the small moments that make a place feel like your place. But before I plan where to go, I ask a different question: How do you want to feel while you’re there?

Maybe you want to feel rested and taken care of. Maybe you want great food, beautiful views, and nowhere you have to be until dinner. Maybe you want to laugh with old friends and come home feeling more like yourself. The answer shapes everything—from the pace of the days to where you stay and what’s worth planning ahead.

I started Jen X Has Plans for fellow Gen Xers who spend a lot of life showing up for everyone else. You deserve experiences shaped around what you want, with enough thought put into the details that you can actually enjoy being away.

Start with the feeling.
