Episode Transcript

Alright y'all, before we dive in, a quick heads up.

We're talking about adult themes, sexual content, and the kind of stuff you probably don't want blasting through your speakers at work or around your kits.

So grab some headphones, pour your drink of choice and get comfy.

Oh, and just so we're clear, we are not licensed therapists, counselors, or sex.

Couches.

Sex coaches.

Sex coaches, not sex couches or just a couple of people sharing our lives, experiences and sexy adventures.

An ethical non-monogamy.

So with that, pull up a chair and enjoy the show.

And.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Beyond Monogamy.

I'm Adam.

And I'm Pris.

And tonight we're sitting down with someone who's changing the way people think about travel, not just vacations, but experiences.

We're talking with Jhannyphil Contreras, the woman behind Tropical unicorn Travel.

She plans trips for couples, lifestyle groups, lifestyle, curious folks, and anyone who's ready to trade their same old vacation for something that actually feels exciting, connected, and intentional.

But more than that, she understands the space, she gets the energy, the community, the needs, and the culture because she's lived it.

And tonight she's sharing not just what she does, but the story of how she found the lifestyle and why it changed the direction of her life and her business.

Yes.

So get comfortable, grab your drink because this is going to be a fun, real, and inspiring conversation for sure.

So thank you for joining us today.

Yes, thank you so much.

I'm excited.

Thank You'all for having me.

I'm excited to be here today.

So I found you on TikTok.

Yes.

I love all your videos and I actually shared your TikTok with my husband and.

We were like, wow, we have to get her on the show.

Oh, we fell in love with you instantly.

Your energy is amazing.

It comes out of that comes outta my phone.

It's Hey Priscilla, come with me on a vacation.

I'm there.

I'm gonna leave my kids and my husband at home.

Let's go.

Yeah.

And I'm sure it was through the temptation videos.

Yes.

It honestly, it was.

Yeah.

All your videos.

So tell us about your journey.

Let it, like, how did you start?

With the travel agency or anything else?

Actually, How did you start in the lifestyle?

Yeah.

So that's a funny thing.

I do not consider myself part of the lifestyle as a whole.

Okay.

I'm just really.

When I start knowing more.

Okay, so everything is started.

Let's say like this, we obviously travel a lot.

And we went to places like for my 21st birthday.

He, my husband took me to Vegas.

And when I was there I was like, I'm 21.

I wanna try something, fun.

Something that I haven't done before, right?

I was like, I got my first tattoo and I was like, I just want something different.

So we started looking for clubs, right?

And then that's when we find like the swinger clubs and the stuff like that.

And I was like, Ooh.

And he's let me tell you.

I'll go with you, but don't get any ideas.

And I was like, yeah, sure.

Just wanna see.

So from there it started I started with finding to every city that I was going to, finding swinger clubs, places where just to see the crowd and honestly.

I just love it.

Once again, I have never joined them.

It has never been a thing where I'm like, oh, doing things with them or nothing like that.

But I love just the vibe, the people, the community how open everybody is, how friendly they are.

Sometimes, my husband used to be like.

You know what?

They're friendly and I'm like, who is he?

Yes, girl.

Yes, good people.

No, but that's how it started.

That's awesome.

We then went to Brazil and in Brazil in Copacabana, that's when we actually had the biggest, best experiences there.

Over there the lifestyle is.

Because they're more, right?

Yeah.

And while being there, I was like, just excited.

Once again, we have never joined per se, but I'm always kicking it with people being there in the rooms while seeing everything that is happening and just Yeah.

A proof.

Yeah.

And I think that's what really the lifestyle is about.

Like it's it's a lot of community and you're very right.

There's no judging.

There's, it's a very open, relaxed.

Yes.

As opposed to what we call the vanilla world, right?

Where people don't I don't know.

They see every flaw.

I think the lifestyle's a little bit more.

It's laid backs.

It's a bit juer the other way outside.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Yes.

It's something else that I love about the lifestyle.

It is so I grew up being a heavyset girl.

I've always felt like the bigger girl and are you Latina?

Are you Hispanic?

Same.

Yes, I am.

I'm Latina.

Yes.

Mexicana.

Okay.

So there you go.

So you know right, that it's like we're the chubby ones.

Everybody's la gordita, this and that.

Like you always feel like excluded.

Something that I love about like the lifestyle and going to clubs like that and everything.

It was how you see people that you're like, girl, you wearing that?

You're comfortable.

What the heck am I feeling bad about?

And they're like, why not?

You look great.

I look great.

And I'm like, yes you do look great.

Yeah.

I just never thought maybe you're putting that or whatever.

And yeah.

So that's something that is you know what?

I feel welcome here.

I feel like I belong.

Yes.

Yeah, exactly.

We're it, we're both pretty, we're both chunkies.

Yeah, I'm rotund, It's a very, very opening space.

That's what I like.

Yeah.

That's good.

I'm glad.

Hey welcome.

Yeah.

Yeah, I know.

So then I started my travel agency because of that, because we were traveling a lot.

Yeah.

It wasn't specifically for no lifestyle or nothing, it was just more I travel a lot.

People always tell me like, oh, take me next time you go.

I want to travel like you.

How do you guys do it?

So I was like, maybe I can help people start doing this.

Yeah.

And then that's where temptation came to.

Like I started learning just about hotels and something, and that was in Jamaica.

And somebody told me like, have you ever been temptation?

You look so fun and everything.

I think you would like the crowd and everything.

And I was like, no, never heard of it.

So I started looking into it and I was like.

I need to check it out before I even tell people.

And then I went and I fell in love.

I was like, oh yeah, this is my vibe.

Yeah, this is my place.

And that's what I was like, you know what?

At first I was like, do I tell people I came here?

Because you're like, what?

People are gonna say judgment?

Yes.

And even people there, they will ask me, they're like, did you tell your family that you're here?

And I'm like.

Yeah.

And they're like, oh, we don't tell nobody we are here.

And I'm like, such, I shouldn't not say anything.

Yeah.

Then I posted it on TikTok and it just went crazy.

People was like, oh, let me know.

Lemme know.

And I'm like, yeah.

And the best part is once again, you don't have to indulge in anything that you don't feel comfortable with, and everybody's super respectful.

They tell you from the beginning.

The only rule is that two rules, no cell phones and no means no.

I'm like, love it.

That's easy.

Yeah.

Love it.

So that's what made you start your travel agency?

Yeah, like I started, I started before going to Temptation.

I just wanted to help people traveling and traveling like us and all of that.

Yeah.

And so how do you get a lot of lifestyle people just specifically because of those video?

Because of the Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

There's a lot of people that only reach out to me because they either want to go to Temptations or even though I have never been to hedonism the one in Jamaica.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Everybody's Have you ever been?

How is it?

And I'm like I've never been, but I've been.

Done a lot of, you've never been to Jamaica Girl?

We haven't been to, no, I've been to Jamaica.

I've never been to that resort.

Okay.

Yeah, we have, it's on the bucket list on the list.

It's there.

Yes.

It's same for us.

We've never been to Temptations at all.

We're barely starting to travel.

We have lots of kids.

Yeah, we have lots of kids, so Temptation.

I think you guys will love it.

Yeah.

Okay.

I think you guys will absolutely love it.

It's such a fun vibe.

I think it's really fun.

I would say because it is a place where you don't have to be involved in it.

Okay.

But if you want to, you can.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

And it is like everybody, it is such a, I can't wait till you guys go.

'cause if I had a great time, I've only been two times and I have people, everybody on my social media and we all plan, try to go together because now it becomes like a family.

You know what I mean?

Yes.

And I freaking love it.

And it's it's funny because it's like them.

Y'all have seen me walking around with my boobs out and they're like.

Hi, girl.

When you're coming back, whatever, super.

It's super comfortable, super, whatever.

And any, it's more a party thing during the day.

It's party party, party.

And then at night you have a theme night, okay?

So I recommend people if you ever go, even if it's by yourself, get there on a Thursday, spend Friday and Saturday partying.

Give yourself the Sunday to calm the fuck down and fly back on Monday.

Okay, we can do that.

Or if you wanna spend that many days, then get there on Thursday, oh, I'm sorry.

On Friday, get there on Friday, early.

Yeah.

And then you party the rest of the Friday.

And then Saturday.

Saturday and then Sunday she the heck down.

Yeah.

I did do last time, Thursday till Monday because I wanted to do, they have a boob cruise.

Okay.

So the book Cruise is only Fridays or Monday Cruise.

Okay.

So I did it on Friday and Oh my God, you was wild.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, you got it sold.

You know what I mean?

It was, it was wild.

I'm like, I'm not doing this again.

But yeah, it's experience, it's like one of those things that you're like, check the box.

Yeah, exactly.

Exactly.

You have to live it.

Like they, because, okay, so the type of lifestyle that a lot of people do is they how do they call it?

Like the unicorns, right?

Yes, two girls and men.

You know what I mean?

That's normally what they go for, yes.

Yeah.

But they just do it like I'm in the lifestyle, but like in my household with a hair, you don't see them trying to hang with other people doing shit.

You know what I mean?

Stuff like that.

Because of, like what people gonna say and stuff like that.

So that's why you don't see it.

We're definitely in the lifestyle.

Our kids know.

Everybody knows.

You can't we're, we have a podcast, you can't.

Yeah.

Yeah.

How to even hide that.

Yeah.

And this thing has actually gone global and we actually have, we have a lot of listeners outside of the country in Yeah in like Central America as well.

And the Caribbean as a matter of fact.

So that'll let you know that they are interested, they are in it, they just don't, they just don't be vocal about it.

Yeah.

Sometimes I've seen temptation.

Temptation is a lot of Mexicans, Dominicans are more, a lot of Puerto Ricans, because since they're right there, they can fly, really close.

And when I see them, you even see us, you see the tension between us.

The Hispanics kind of I'm not here, type of shit, but then by the end of the weekend you're, but at the beginning you can see everybody like.

Yeah, no.

So yeah.

That this is what we do.

Yeah.

I love that.

Yeah.

And the community here is really big, so it's really close.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

It's but yeah, that's it.

I'm curious I saw one of your one of your TikTok videos, you did Uhhuh you had been talk, you were talking about human trafficking.

Yes.

And would you mind going into that right quick?

Like how, what are things that people can look for or how, yes, absolutely.

Actually that video came up because somebody called me that day and they were telling me like, Hey this boy was a really young guy, like maybe 18, 19 or something like that, and found this girl from Chile or Peru.

It was some country like that.

And they only met online, so they don't know in person.

Mind you, I'm a IT person, so I work in cybersecurity.

Okay.

So I know how advanced AI is.

Yeah, so sometimes you can be, right now you really don't even know if it's me right here, if it's you.

Yes.

It's like those type of stuff.

It's Yeah.

AI is so advanced that I can put a person that will sound like me and look like me, and you will feel comfortable with that person and they tell you everything you want.

And then when you make it there.

Hello Catfishing.

It is not that, because they were telling me that, they're like, does it sound like tell me about safe places in Chile or Peru?

I can't even remember what it was.

But they were pretty much telling me about it.

What do you think about this?

And whatever.

And I'm like, does he knows that girl?

No.

They have only met online.

Yes.

He's gonna travel all the way there by himself.

Oh.

And he didn't wanna tell his family.

Oh.

So I was like, that's dangerous because if anything happened, then how do we know even to where to start looking for you.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So then I start which they call me about that.

Then I just, that week they were also new in the news about people that have been like they go to other resources or something and then sometimes they don't even find them or, find 'em on a top or whatever.

It's just that So messed up.

Yeah.

So I would say that people need to 'cause, well that hits home very close to me.

My, I lost my niece that way, i, yeah.

So I totally understand.

You understand?

Yeah.

And, And the crazy thing is that, it's easy to tell people what use common sense.

Common sense is not common.

Yes.

At all.

Yeah.

And that's crazy.

That's crazy.

I dunno who call it common sense.

Maybe because they, it should be coming, but it's not.

And when you are young, you don't, you think you know it all.

You think you know it all?

Yeah.

You think that you just got the whole world figured out and we as parents we're just being annoying.

We're just being a wanna know it all and, but they are the ones that can handle it.

And I'm like, you see the bigger picture?

Yeah.

Everything is sounding as a red flag.

Yeah.

Like, why don't you pay?

And I told him, I was like, why don't he pay her to come to the US and maybe see her there?

Yeah.

Or why don't y'all go as a family and see her?

Type of stuff, and I was like let him know.

I say if he goes there, if he decides to go, then make sure he don't go in no car that he didn't book himself.

Maybe get an agency that pick him up and book himself the hotel and don't tell this person until he actually met that pers meet that person in a restaurant or something like that, yeah.

So I was giving them pointers and I was like, you know what?

I tell people go in trouble, but am I really telling you also Hey, be in the lookout for this stuff.

That's good.

And And I get a lot of people that love to go to Mexico and they're like, whoa, you have a lot of specials for Mexico, but you see it dangerous.

And I'm like, everywhere is dangerous if you looking for prostitutes and drugs.

Yeah.

If you steer away from that, there is not much possibility of you getting in trouble unless you're looking for it.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That makes sense.

So that's why I tell them, I'm like, you can go to Cancun, you can go to whatever.

You can go to Tijuana if you wanna.

Don't get no prostitute.

Don't get no drugs baby.

If you just going for tacos in a good time, you'll love it.

Hey, lemme tell you, I tell my kids all the time, nothing good happens

outside after 10

outside after 10:00 PM Yes, hello.

Stay indoors.

Yes, I agree with that too.

Same thing.

So if you're out at a certain time, something bad happens, you know it's bound and I look for it.

You kind of look for it.

That's, yeah.

So you do, so that brought that conversation and you mentioned something.

So what types of trips do you specialize in?

I know that you do not only like different, do you do couple getaways and group trips?

Exactly.

I specialize on couples.

And I prefer vacations.

To the Caribbean.

Okay.

So I specialize normally with Dr like Punana, Mexico, specifically Cancun and Montego Bay, Jamaica.

Okay.

That's when normally people, what I like to specify myself to, to cannot keep myself there.

Yeah.

But I can book all top of trips.

I can book family trips, I can book Disney trips.

I can book Dubai trips.

I just came back from Dubai from my honeymoon, so I can book whatever you want me to book for you.

Oh, wow.

I just prefer couples because I think it's more, it's less drama.

Yes.

It's less drama.

Less drama.

It's like sometimes people is yeah, a group of 20.

Yeah.

The group chat starts with 20 by the time that they actually fly leaves, there is a group.

Five or six actually, yeah.

Because then somebody cannot pay well deposit and la and, makes, when he's couples, he's oh, let ask my husband.

Yeah, he can pay whatever.

That's it.

I love that.

Easy peasy.

So that's what got you into and I what?

You asked that one.

Actually, I'm, I am really curious, and this is something that I've always wanted to talk to somebody who specialized in travel.

Is, it, obviously you're gonna tell me that there's a better savings most likely if I book with you rather than if I book my own.

I'm just curious what is the differences?

Yeah.

You will not hear that from me.

No.

Oh, okay.

No.

If it's cheaper with me, it's cheaper with me.

Okay.

So even if you book through Expedia or you book through any of your favorite platform, you are paying them a commission because you're not booking directly through the airline and the hotel.

So anytime that you use booking.com, Expedia, all of those good stuff, you're still giving them a commission.

So I'm just like, I'm just trying to sell it to you of, in a way of life.

Give it today, give it to me, type of stuff.

Oh, okay.

You what I mean?

Like it's more personalized because you have somebody that you can blame in case of anything.

You can have a direct line that you can be like, Hey Johnny, this is happening type stuff.

A 30 minute free consultation that I like for people that don't know, sometimes people know they wanna go on a trip, but they dunno where they want to go or if it makes sense or how we sit done and all of that.

So with those 30 minutes, I explain them how I do the process, how is everything?

And I also let them know, let's say I just had one consultation last week.

She told me I want to go to Mexico City.

From Christmas to new Year's.

I told her, listen, it might be better either find you a really cheap hotel, which is not a resort.

And it might be even better for you to look into Airbnb.

I don't book Airbnbs.

Okay.

Okay.

So I told her, I was like with her on the phone, I told her, listen, the cheapest hotel is this one.

I can book you this hotel and it have this, and that.

If not, check on Airbnb and see if you can find it cheaper, if it makes more sense to you.

Oh, that's great.

And I'm like, if you would like me to book it for you, let me know if No, hey, you can book it yourself.

I was like, you, the thing is this, if you book through me.

It is before 45 days you can make payments.

So let's say like you say, Hey, next year we want to go to Mexico, Johnny Buco Flight, hotel and Transportation for next year.

And I'm like, okay, perfect flight hotel, and everything is $300 deposit and you pay however you want to.

As long as you have it paid by 30 days prior to due date, like the flying day.

Oh wow.

So I'm not telling you have to pay every month this month.

No.

However you can, if you don't wanna pay through the whole year and pay me that last day, I, it's fine with me as long as you pay in full the due date and I will let you know what's the due date and all that stuff.

So people prefer it that way because they have that flexibility like, oh, I don't.

I have it there.

I know that I book a year ahead, so my flight is cheaper, stuff like that.

And I can do that now.

She told me also for Mexico City for December, it's less than 45 days, so I was like, you're gonna have to pay in full regardless.

So you must well find you, you don't necessarily need to book with me, right?

Unless you don't know what the heck you're doing, then yeah, let me help you.

Yeah.

I don't mind.

I do all that for you and give me that commission, but outside of that, I'm like, girl, you can do it.

Like I'm sending you pretty much everything you have to do.

So just Okay.

You just blew my, you just blew my mind.

I'm like, oh my goodness, man.

I was like, I'm well, you gave some really great information.

Yeah.

'cause that's the stuff that, that we were trying to figure out ourselves.

This is us about, yes.

It sounds me like I wanna get the best price and, we wanna do more traveling and if we can do payments.

Exactly.

Yeah.

That's the difference.

If you go like to Expedia right now where you have to pay in full Yes.

Because you're booking fine or whatever.

So you're like, I don't have that money in full right now.

Yeah.

But then well, let me get Johnny, can you book me a trip for next year or for six months ahead or whatever.

One thing.

Yeah.

I set all that up for you and you making payments of that so you don't have that thing.

But I used to sell my business as like the cheapest.

The cheapest.

And I was like, you know what?

The cheapest doesn't get.

It gets cheap clients, right?

And cheap clients are the most entitled.

Can you believe that?

Like they think that, yes.

Yeah, that's because they pay 800 for flying in a hotel.

They're gonna get a five star hotel.

And I'm like.

How, yeah.

And they're the ones that be always bothering you the most and doing this and that and whatever.

And it's I was like, you know what, I want people that travel like me.

People like my vacations because I use good hotels.

I pay for my thing, you know what I mean?

I don't just go to a hotel that cost me $300 for 10 days.

Yeah.

Because also people, once again, common sense is not coming.

So a lot of people are expecting like, what you mean that I cannot stay for seven, seven days in Cancun with flying hotel for $800?

And I'm like, because you can't, yeah.

Not in a good hotel anyway.

Yeah.

Yeah.

No, that makes sense.

That makes a lot of sense.

Yeah.

No, you blew our mind there because the we have a lot of traveling to do.

Yes.

As a matter of fact, 2026, we are doing a lot more national events and Oh, that's fun.

And there's a lot of stuff that we wanna do.

We want to go to Temptations and we wanna go to, he we wanna go to Hido, and things like this.

And so this is where we really we're looking forward to talking to, because that's, oh, yeah.

Perfect.

Yeah.

That's one of the things that we're trying to figure out, is.

What should we be looking for as far as travel?

And, tips.

Anything that you can share is incredible.

Yeah, absolutely.

So the process, normally my packages, I, once again, that's why I like couples in the Caribbean, because you have.

Cheaper packages in a way.

You get flights, hotel and transportation.

Like you get somebody that picks you up from the airport, take you to the hotel, and on your checkout they pick you up and take you back to the hotel, to the airport.

So it's like you don't have to worry about nothing when it comes to that.

Unless if you wanna do extra regular activities right.

Outside of the hotel.

And even those, a lot of people, a lot of travel agents, they book people extracurricular activities.

I can't book them, but I prefer people to see how they feel like every day.

Yeah.

Because me, I'm one of the girls that is if I go there the first day and I don't wanna do to that dinner that you planned for me, then I'll feel like, fuck, I wish I didn't have to pay for that.

That I didn't because I really just wanna chill with you today.

Or we go hangover that night.

Now we have to wake up at six in the morning because we pay for a catamaran in the sun.

You know what I mean?

Hangover.

Yeah.

So sometimes people, Hey, get to the hotel, see how you feel like it, and do it that way.

But with me the process for me is that I don't wanna waste my time.

And you remember what I told you, Adam?

I was like, I respect people's time so people can respect mine.

Yes, absolutely.

I won't give people for my free time.

So I do have a inquiry form.

Good.

And it was $35 for me to take time out of my day.

And put whatever it's that you're asking me for.

If you say, Hey, is Hido that I'm looking for, these are the dates, the form has everything.

What's the dates?

How many people, how many rooms?

Why are you celebrating?

All of that information.

You're gonna put it a what's your budget?

'cause that's really important.

Okay.

Because if you tell me what my budget is just $1,200 and, but you wanna stay six days, seven day.

In Hi.

I'm gonna be like, yeah, that cannot happen friend, but I appreciate you for $35.

But yeah, no, that's what you know, so those are of type of stuff.

That's good.

Good.

So with me, if you tell me a specific hotel, then it's easier.

Because I already know what you're doing.

And even if you tell me, Hey, I'm going this specific hotel, I wouldn't even charge you because I know what you want.

Now if you don't know.

What hotel specifically, where you would like to go, like Jamaica in May.

Me and him over $1,500 per se.

Okay, cool.

I'm gonna send you a flight schedule from whatever you're flying to.

So I'll show you what it will cover your price.

Three hotel.

With a link to the hotel so you can see the hotels and see.

That's your only homework.

You do have to click on the links and see through the freaking hotel.

Oh, forget it.

'cause a lot of them, I had clients that they were like, why didn't know the hotel didn't have elevators.

And I'm like, I send you the link for you to see the hotel.

You should have.

I went and see what the heck he has there.

If you want an elevator, then that was something that you shoulda have checked the hotel has.

So you know, I send you that and I send you how much is the price fully for that room?

How much is the deposit and the due date that you will have.

So you will see, okay, this is the total, the deposit that I had to pay and I had to pay Jan by this date fully or whatever.

Then I know, and I send you three options.

Then you let me know, okay.

I choose option one.

Okay, perfect.

I just send you a payment authorization form and a booking form.

The booking form is for you to put me all your passport, good information, right?

Name, birthday, all the good stuff that I will need to book your flight and your hotel.

Okay.

And then the payment authorization where you're gonna put your card and I'm paying them directly.

I got you.

Yeah.

So you're not paying, you're not putting in my account and then not paying.

No.

It's like you're just authorizing me to use your money to make whatever payment I need to do to book that thing, specifically for that amount.

And right there, I will send you an email with all the whole confirmation with your flyer is booked, your hotel is booked and your transportation.

Wow.

And then I may give you options of things that you may want to do during that time and everything like that.

You make your payments however you want to make them.

After you pay the deposit, the deposits will let me know that Yeah, this is for sure.

I'm booking that.

Yeah, without the deposit.

Yeah.

You're just wasting your time.

Yeah, exactly.

And another thing is this, if you're booking, let's say a cruise, it's just $50 per person that deposit.

Oh, wow.

If you're booking hotel only in transportation, it's only $50.

It's when you add the flight, that's what it goes to.

Either two 50 or 300.

That's something that makes sense.

Yeah, that's, yeah.

That's not bad at all.

And and yeah, and then when you pay everything seven days before your trip, I will send you a.

Email pretty much telling you things about that place that you're gonna go.

Tips and tricks, how to change your money.

I will tell you, don't change.

No money in the airport is more expensive.

You know, like Americans love to get to there.

Oh yeah, I changed.

Don't do that.

Don't do that.

No, don't do that.

You know what I mean?

And even they will appreciate your dollars better.

So I would just have some cash, have on you some once and some fives that you can see people yeah.

And I tell you, tip.

Tip people.

You go to the hotel, you go to the restaurant, the hotel, it's all inclusive.

But you know the guy that is bringing you the drinks slice something $5 a year?

$5 there, you they'll appreciate it and will treat you even better.

Yeah.

So just little tips and stuff like that about the country and how to do your check in for your transportation so they know, Hey, Jas, me and you.

If you go to somewhere there, download WhatsApp.

That's why they all, stuff like that.

And after that's it.

Do you, since you go to a lot of resorts, do you give a lot of of your recommendations?

Like us, we don't travel very much.

We're always in the states and the states, I can give you some recommendations of hotel.

Yes, exactly.

But like outside of the country, since you've traveled, do you give a lot of your, absolutely.

If you tell me, okay, I would like to go to Cancun.

Like I said, I have the 30 minutes consultation, so that works for that and it's free.

It's like you just become a calendar and we can sit down and talk and you're like, okay, I wanna go to Dr, but how much do you think I would need for that?

And I'll be realistic with you.

Okay.

Okay.

For this time it's March.

Let's say example, it's Marsh and it's Dr.

And you're flying from, I don't know where you guys are, but Texas, right?

Austin.

Yeah, Texas.

There you go.

Okay.

I'm in Austin, Texas.

So it will be maybe around this much.

So have in your mind that whenever you fill it out, your inquiry form Okay.

You kind looking for that amount type of thing.

Yeah.

And I will tell you, Hey, I love this resort from that place.

But it's more cost.

Once again, I don't travel to cheap places, so I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna be here like, oh yeah, I know.

No but I'll tell you, hey, there are some that are cheaper.

There's some that this, and I'll also see what buy you're looking for.

Okay.

Because there's a lot of couples that I'm like, we are.

I'm 31.

He's 41.

Okay.

So I don't know.

Some people consider young, some people consider, oh, we're, We're older than you girl.

But I'm saying it's like, it depends on who you're talking to, right?

Yeah.

So some people looking for, I have clients that they're like 25, but they're really chill.

So they're like, I don't want a party hotel.

I don't want, but I want an adult only, so I have to make sure that I'm giving you an adult only that can be chill.

Oh, I love that.

But if you tell me, Hey, I like parties.

Okay, a real party hotel, let's find you something that you can be like in the, like all days.

So yeah, I'm trying to see what kind of vibe people are looking for and, yeah.

Going with that.

I love that.

Doing job.

I had always heard that if you book during a certain time, flights are a lot cheaper.

Do you happen to know like, how many weeks?

Is that a thing?

Is that a thing?

Not right now.

Everything is expensive right now.

I'm not gonna even like to you.

Yeah.

But I feel that you never want to book within three months of whatever time you book in.

Okay.

Okay.

Because it's gonna go.

Higher.

So good.

I dunno if you have seen the meme where people is like, when I was waiting for my flight to go down and now it's like 1300, it's yeah.

It just go crazy.

It goes skyrocket.

So three months I will give myself, at least I love, ah, to find that vacation that you're looking for.

Good.

So she already knows like what you want and a little inquiry and everything.

Yeah.

No.

I, it's, that's helpful.

It right off the bat.

I will say, so we don't.

She's normally the one that handles any kind of travel uhhuh arrangements, and she's gotten very good with price line or whatever it is that she utilizes as she would.

And I have, I've tried to use it and it just frustrates the crap out me.

I'd rather talk to somebody, but that's all domestic, right?

So it's yeah, I feel like I've never even a problem.

Don't forget it.

Don't give me international, that's for sure.

Yeah.

No, but that's a good thing.

And so do you, I, this is another question I'm pretty sure I've always had, do you have to have your passport every time you travel to places like those?

It would depend where if you're traveling outside of the us.

Meaning as US territories, like Mexico, Jamaica, the, you don't need your passport.

Okay?

You cannot get out of the US without a passport.

And that's also cruises.

If you wanna take a cruise to Bahamas or something, you have to have a passport.

Now if you gonna To Puerto Rico?

No Puerto Rico, you can just go without no passport.

Just your ID and yeah, us or US Virgin Islands as well.

Stuff like Hawaii.

Yeah.

Okay.

Good.

Yeah.

Reach.

I'm doing some traveling, sir.

Yes, actually.

Yeah.

And Puerto Rico has great hotels too.

I know.

So I was my, I have fam not family, but I call 'em family in Puerto Rico.

It's my first husband's family.

I'm very close to them.

And they're always inviting us to Puerto Rico and we Oh, you have a blast.

If you have people there, it will be even way better.

Yes.

Because they, they really take you to the good places to eat, places to hang out.

It's so good.

I love Puerto.

Yeah.

I love them.

They're so alive and it's so good.

And it's cheaper than here.

Yes.

Yeah, it is.

It is.

Yeah.

See, that's where we should go.

Yeah.

Those swingers clubs over there, I well have, was trained us a whole little hotel and everything.

We were talking about that.

We were gonna, we were gonna look and see if they have swinger clubs in Puerto Rico.

Puerto Rico, Puerto.

They've got to we're gonna, I'm sure they be, they're gonna have to do a whole, we're gonna do the little form, girl.

We're gonna get it ready for you.

What?

That's for sure.

Yeah.

We gotta get that whole thing figured out.

Oh, you do all adult stuff.

I love that.

Like I just want to go where there's no children.

Like Yes, exactly.

A lot of people, they're like, listen, I'm not looking for no party resort, but I don't want no kids around.

I'm like, okay, adults only is 18.

What is, I know.

I didn't know about that.

Yeah, I love that.

Okay, so you know, some tips I guess is decide where you wanna go, right?

Yeah.

You do have to know at least.

Where you want to go, the dates that you want to go.

Because if you tell me I just want to go.

Okay.

But it goes up and down.

Yeah.

And and budget.

You also wanna know how much you're willing to pay.

'cause depending on that, is that I'm gonna look hotels between that range.

If you tell me, I just wanna go to Mexico to have a great time.

If you let me baby, I'm gonna make you spend five, 6,000 because why not?

Why not?

You have to tell me.

Okay.

Jan, come on.

Chill.

No, I want something more.

Oh, okay.

Cool.

Lemme know.

Yeah.

So you want to know that when we travel, we're gonna be traveling as groups.

So we have Okay.

About six of us.

Six to eight of us.

Yeah.

So if you're going on, on groups.

Keep in mind, okay.

It will start exciting.

Okay.

It might not ended up just, they're part of the business, my experience.

Yeah.

They're part of the business, so it's like they, we have to go all together just because, okay, perfect.

They're a crew, but we also like them and we also like them.

But I do understand.

I do understand.

Yeah.

But there are other couples, then it might be easier.

Yeah.

I think I'm more like acro like groups, like Oh, my cousins and my friends and whatever.

It's, I, we don't even have, we don't even talk to our cousins or No.

Okay.

Yeah.

So famous couples should be good.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Trouble tips just for anybody out there.

I was just about to ask you.

Yes.

The Americans looking.

A big misconception is that everybody wants to go to the Caribbean for the summer.

That's the worst time to go to the Caribbean.

Okay.

Because it's so hot.

So all the beaches in the Caribbean are full of alga.

Oh, okay.

The beach are no cute and also raining season and all that stuff, right?

So the best time to go to the Caribbean is between November and March.

April, okay.

That's the best time to go to the Caribbean.

If you want to go to Mexico if the beach is what you want to see.

Okay.

If you're not a bitch person, you don't give a fuck about it.

You just want to be, I'm sorry, I no.

You okay?

Say penis on here a lot.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

Yeah.

We've used those words before, but yeah, eve, if you're like a pool person and you really don't care about it.

Okay.

Yeah.

Cool.

You can go anytime, but if you're looking for beautiful visions and the perfect weather, November till April.

Wow.

See, that's great information to have.

That is good, good information.

Now, do you I know you're not you're not considered, you don't consider yourself the lifestyle, but do you host any trips?

I have never hosted one.

No.

Honestly, I haven't even have that vibe.

Girl, you should really do that.

Tell me that.

Maybe I should try.

I have never done it now.

When I started my travel business, Uhhuh, I just had my second daughter.

Okay.

Type of thing.

Yeah.

So she was really little.

So I think I'm being just raising kids and once again, have a full-time job.

And we just got married and the wedding took us two years on planning, everything like that.

So I stopped pretty much everything.

So I never had the chance to do anything group like, okay, I'm just like me and him and let you know about it.

You know what I mean?

It's baby we go there and we let them know.

They can find out what we posted on Instagram, yeah.

But I think that maybe I'll look for that because people are really asking me more about it.

They're like, Johnny, just take us with you so you can guide us around.

Yeah.

And I'm like, okay, well perfect.

So maybe you should think about that.

Yani I have a very specific request here, Uhhuh, and I'm gonna see, I'm gonna see what you come up with.

All right?

We're gonna have some fun with this, okay?

I want you to talk to my fellas out there because us guys don't always know a whole lot about travel and that sort of thing.

And sometimes we want to be romantic.

Sometimes we wanna plan something without our.

Partner no another.

Yeah.

And, but we wanna try and figure this out as best as possible as far as what's romantic and this and that.

What would be your top kind of recommendations as far as what would be considered a romantic trip that that could be planned?

You can go anywhere and make it romantic.

Oh, I like that answer honestly.

My, when we were dating what, like two years or two?

Valentines Day, it was last year.

He took me to a hotel right by us, literally that he put like flowers all over the place and decorate the thing we liked, so it made it romantic.

Sure.

That's what's your, what's your romantic?

That's what I would think that's where a travel agent will be best needed if you're a guy.

'cause I feel like travel agents are mostly a luxury because it's not something that you cannot do on your own.

You can't do it on your own.

But it's mostly for people that are lost or don't know really had to do or would like, I have so much going on just for you to take care of that.

Yeah.

So right there you can be like, okay, listen, I want a hotel.

Where it's more like a romantic style type of stuff, and then the trouble agent can also request that.

For that, I wanted, they message, we message, we talked to the hotels directly.

Hey, this person is going.

He wanna surprise his wife.

It's anniversary or whatever, they create the room.

We can get that done.

We have also suppliers, people outside of the hotel that can come and they create your room.

I think everything's in the details, yes.

Because honestly, if you will tell her like, okay, baby, do your luggage, we're going tomorrow.

Somewhere.

You dunno where, she would freaking love that.

Just even that because it's I didn't even have to think about none of this.

I didn't have to stress about it or nothing.

It's like we're leaving.

So even if you don't create it, but I think that's where a travel agent, it might be more luxury.

If not just Google the heck outta that.

Yeah.

But Mexico, places like that, I think all of them can work.

Yeah.

In Cancun, I don't know if you guys saw that, TikTok, I pretty much in Cancun I got us a limo service people that pick us up from the airport.

And it was just a whole limo for me and him.

I think I paid 150 maybe, or something like that, or.

It wasn't more than a hundred and something Uhhuh that I paid, but it was a whole limo for me and him.

We got a bottle at the airport and it was just me twerking for him in this limo all the way to the hotel from the airport.

It's just the details, I didn't, I told him we're going on a trip, but you know where, and I just saw him pack swimsuits like pack.

Tropical outfit.

That could be anywhere.

I love that.

That could be anywhere.

That could be anywhere.

That could be anywhere.

Oh, and I just messaged the hotel and let them know Hey, I'm surprising my boyfriend for his birthday.

I need a room decorated.

And that's what they did.

They had a whole thing, happy birthday, chocolate, champagne.

You know what I mean?

All that stuff.

I gotta say, your tiktoks really amaze me because you looked like a different person in almost every one of them.

Almost every one of them.

It's like all of a sudden you had curly hair.

Then over here you had straight hair.

And then it was this.

And I was like, what?

She's, yeah.

And then you came on and I was like, this person, she is creative and you look great.

You rock each and every one of those looks, I gotta tell you.

Yeah, you did a great job.

You need to keep, you need to give people wondering.

I love that.

What the heck?

She lies.

What?

What do you see?

So it's Donnie, do you have any, is it Yani?

Yeah.

Okay.

Do you do you have anything that you wanna throw in Any, like your website or anything?

Where can people find you?

Where can people, I know TikTok and we'll put, we're gonna put everything on our show, but.

Yeah, absolutely think so.

But I would say my main one I have a website is tropical unicorn travels.com.

Okay.

But I think in order to book and see all the fun things and everything that I offer and everything, Instagram is my primary.

Okay.

So my Instagram is pretty much at Tropical Unicorn.

At Tropical Unicorn.

That's travels and pretty much I just wanna remind people, that I help couples explore their lifestyle, travel safely.

Confidently and privately, right?

Because it's just between me and you.

I don't, I know how to tell everybody like, do you know that so and so book with me?

Nah, that's between me and you, whatever is that you want to do whatever you want to go, oh, it doesn't go into your newsletter.

I know, right?

And this is what I just booked for so and no, it's privately and pretty much matching them to the right resort.

Based on the comfort and the curiosity that they want to do.

There's some different levels.

There's some that they're more hotels, more hardcore.

There's some that they're really soft.

Yeah.

You know what I mean?

Cancun has a lot of them more than just temptation.

Okay.

So it depends on what.

Kind of things you want to go for, you know what kind of vibe?

I know.

And you speak Spanish?

Yes.

Okay so I was born and raised in the Dominican Republic.

Okay.

And I came to the United States when I was 17.

So I've been here for 14 years already.

Came straight to Memphis, Tennessee.

That's where I'm based.

All right.
