The Heart Behind Telamon Travel
I’m Laura Adams—and Telamon Travel is my personal vision brought to life—a boutique agency built on years of industry experience and a love for meaningful travel.
As a lifelong traveler with over a decade in the travel industry, I believe in the transformative power of a well-planned journey. Whether it’s the quiet luxury of a wellness retreat, the cultural depth of a river cruise through Europe, or a sun-soaked escape in the Maldives, I specialize in curating escapes that are personal, seamless, and unforgettable.
This isn’t just about booking logistics—it’s about tuning into what excites and inspires you. Every itinerary I design reflects my client’s unique goals, preferences, and rhythms. My background in the humanities and nonprofit world gives me a deep respect for intentionality and communication—skills I now bring to every trip I plan.
When you travel with Telamon, you’re not just booking a vacation. You’re inviting someone into your vision—someone who truly listens, offers expert insight, and handles every detail with care.

Where the Compass Points
Favorite Destination
Galway, Ireland
Stepping into the cool spring air outside the train station, I felt instantly at home. Galway’s charm, warmth, and colorful energy swept me away. While I love every inch of Ireland, Galway completely stole my heart.
Bucket List
My travel bucket list wasn’t meant to follow a theme—but somewhere along the way, the letter M clearly took over. From the Maldives’ overwater serenity to the festive magic of Munich’s Christmas Market, I seem to be magnetically drawn to destinations that all start with the same letter. Malta, Majorca, Martinique, and Moldova? Check. Monaco and Montenegro? Obviously. And Morocco? Mandatory. Maybe it’s fate, maybe it’s alphabetical ambition—but if it starts with an M and promises unforgettable experiences, it’s probably already on my list.
Beyond the Itinerary
I live in Southern California, where I’m fortunate to be close to the coast, the mountains, and the desert—but more often than not, I’m happiest at home. I love quiet evenings with my dogs, visiting local wineries with friends, and the occasional live concert that gets me out of the house. Hockey is my favorite sport, and I have a deep passion for animal welfare that’s shaped much of my life.
Outside of travel planning, I enjoy designing websites, creating digital systems, and finding simple ways to bring more beauty and function into everyday life. My dogs keep me company while I work and remind me to take breaks, look up, and move through the day with intention.
