Meet your Host
Hi, I’m Rhonda “Qiana” Higgins.
I curate immersive travel experiences rooted in culture, community, and connection. I believe travel should feel intentional — not rushed, not chaotic, and never surface-level.
Martha’s Vineyard has long been a sanctuary for Black families, creatives, and leaders. This experience was designed to honor that legacy while creating space for joy, sisterhood, and celebration.
When you travel with me, you’re not just booking a trip.
You’re stepping into a thoughtfully curated environment where logistics are handled, connections are cultivated, and every detail supports your experience.
I can’t wait to gather with you on the Vineyard
