Hi, I’m Cheri!

I became a travel advisor and founded Wishes and Waves Travel because I want others to experience the magic I have at Disney! I want you to know the thrill you feel when riding Big Thunder Mountain. Get choked up when you see your child’s face when they finally meet Mickey or Cinderella for the first time (or the 10^th). Or eat some of the best food you have ever eaten.  I want YOU to feel the MAGIC!

I was literally born and raised Disney. My first trip to Disneyland was when I was 6 months old. I have been hooked ever since. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about Disney – maybe that is because I am always planning a trip!

For a number of years,  I was a Disneyland Annual Passholder.  I have been literally hundreds of times. (Maybe close to 500?) Today I am a Disney World Annual Passholder. When I was a teenager, we cruised on “The Big Red Boat” – aka the original Disney Cruise Line. That sparked my love of cruises, and I haven’t stopped cruising since!

I consider myself blessed to have traveled to many parts of Mexico, the Eastern and Western Caribbean as well as throughout Europe including England, Belgium, France, Portugal, and Spain.

Favorite destinations: Disney World…DUH!, Puerto Rico, St Lucia, Barbados and Brussels, Belgium.

My bucket list: Head back to Alaska for a cruise paired with a land tour and an Antarctic Circle expedition.
