What We Do Shortsleeve Travel is a one-of-a-kind travel club for people in their 20s and 30s who crave adventure beyond the ordinary. We specialize in experiences that aren’t your typical getaways—think of trips you’d never hear about or manage to organize on your own, even with your best group of friends. Whether it’s trekking through remote mountains or cruising on private yachts, we take adventure travel to the next level with small, curated groups and unforgettable experiences.

Our Adventures Here’s a taste of what we do:

Peru Expedition: In March, I led a group of 14 on a 7-day hiking and horseback riding trek through the Andes, ending at Machu Picchu. With a local guide team of 16 people, we camped under the stars for two nights and enjoyed spa hotels for the rest.
Croatia Yacht Experience: I host 36 people aboard a private 170ft luxury yacht along the stunning Croatian coast. With two chefs, 12 staff, and even a nurse on board, we island-hop with a hot tub and sauna on the rooftop deck.

Who Joins Us Our travelers come from all walks of life—consultants, entrepreneurs, doctors, lawyers, nurses, finance professionals, and creatives. Most join solo, but we’ve had friends, siblings, and couples join too. What unites everyone is the desire to explore the world in ways that are truly out of the ordinary and exceptional.

How People Find Us Our trips spread by word of mouth—whether it’s through my deep network from Georgetown and Columbia Business School or from past trip-goers telling their friends and siblings. Plus, you’ll find us on social media! Follow along on Instagram and TikTok @katshortsleeve to see our travels in action.

Why We’re Different Unlike typical group trips, Shortsleeve Travel focuses on high-end adventure and unique experience. It’s not about bar-hopping or hostel living; it’s about meeting like-minded people and creating authentic, life-changing experiences. Our trips attract young professionals who want to have fun, connect, and explore in a meaningful way.

Pricing Our trips are essentaially all-inclusive, and for $2.5k-$3k per person, all you need to do is book your flight and show up. We handle everything else, from accommodations to activities, so you can focus on the adventure.

How It Works We partner with trusted local vendors, from yacht companies to tour operators, and negotiate rates that let us offer these luxury experiences at great prices. The vendors pay us for bringing them a group of travelers they can rely on—so your fee covers an exceptional trip at a fraction of the usual cost.

Patagonia, February 2025
Private yachts in Croatia, Summer 2025
