Meet Our Co-Founders

JJ and Semhar have been life-long friends and travel besties for over two decades. Always up for an adventure, the pair found away to make group travel possible regardless of budget or personal time off, whether it was a weekend getaway to the Bahamas, or a relaxing week in the Hamptons.


Recognizing their talent at bringing people together through travel, the team happily accepted their friends’ requests to plan every bachelorette, girls trip, carnival jump up - and yes, a few bachelor parties too! After years of leveraging their extensive experience in project management and event planning to create travel experiences in over 30 locations across 6 continents, they launched Pack A Bag to help others create unique celebrations while living their best travel lives.
