Emily Lapisardi’s lifelong passion for travel began with her first transatlantic flight at age five. Since then, her journeys have taken her across 28 U.S. states and 17 countries, with extended stays in six European nations—Ireland, the UK, Ukraine, Germany, Austria, and Italy—where she has lived, studied, and performed.

A professional musician and musicologist based at the United States Military Academy, Emily directs the West Point Catholic Choir, organizing and leading an average of four performance tours each academic year. Her work with the Cadet ensemble has included high-profile choral events such as the nationally televised funeral of Venerable Emil Kapaun in Wichita, Kansas, and the annual Archdiocese for the Military Services Chrism Mass in Washington, DC.

Emily is a published historian, a former opera singer and ballet dancer, and a seasoned performer in fifteen states and Washington, D.C. Her deep knowledge of music, history, and culture infuses her travel adventures, offering a uniquely immersive and enlightening experience.
