Let me guess what’s running through your head:

In a world shaped by dating apps, endless swiping, and digital-first relationships, Stephanie Mignone Prochaska believes modern dating has lost something essential: genuine human interaction.

As the founder of Passport to Love, a luxury matchmaking travel company designed for emotionally available singles, Stephanie is creating a more intentional way for people to meet—through shared experiences, curated adventures, and meaningful conversation in extraordinary destinations around the world.

With more than 16+ years of experience as a luxury travel consultant and certification as a professional matchmaker through IAP Career College, Stephanie combines expertise in both relationship dynamics and transformational travel. But Passport to Love was inspired by more than professional experience alone.

After years of helping clients plan unforgettable vacations, Steph began noticing how travel naturally changed people. Outside the routines and pressures of everyday life, individuals became more open, present, and authentic. At the same time, she watched many successful, relationship-minded friends grow increasingly frustrated with modern dating culture.

“People don’t fall in love staring at their phones,” Stephanie says. “They fall in love while experiencing life’s moments together.”

That realization became the foundation for Passport to Love.

Rather than focusing on endless messaging or superficial online profiles, Passport to Love creates elevated group travel experiences where relationships can develop naturally. The company attracts professionals, entrepreneurs, creatives, and adventure-seekers who value authenticity, emotional intelligence, and genuine chemistry over casual dating culture.

The concept reflects a growing shift away from swipe fatigue and toward more experience-driven ways of meeting people.

“Modern dating has created more access to people than ever before, but less real interaction,” Steph explains. “I wanted to create environments where meaningful relationships could unfold organically through shared experiences and real conversation.”

Each Passport to Love itinerary is intentionally designed to encourage interaction without pressure or forced matchmaking. Guests may find themselves enjoying vineyard tastings in Portugal, sunset catamaran excursions along the Mediterranean, rooftop dinners overlooking historic cities, or chef-led culinary experiences in Italy.

Boutique luxury accommodations, wellness activities, cultural exploration, and intimate group settings all contribute to an atmosphere that feels sophisticated, relaxed, and emotionally safe.

Unlike many traditional singles trips, Passport to Love is not centered around party culture, awkward icebreakers, or speed dating-style activities. Instead, Steph focuses on creating refined experiences where people can genuinely get to know one another while exploring some of the world’s most beautiful destinations.

Steph believes travel creates one of the strongest environments for relationship-building because it encourages curiosity, vulnerability, communication, and presence—qualities often difficult to foster through apps alone.

As interest in experiential matchmaking and relationship-focused travel continues to grow, Passport to Love is emerging as part of a larger movement redefining how modern singles connect.

Through her growing community on @mypassporttolove, along with insights shared on LinkedIn and YouTube, Steph continues to advocate for a more human-centered approach to dating and relationships.

Her vision extends far beyond travel itself.

Steph envisions Passport to Love becoming a global community for relationship-minded singles who are ready to step away from endless scrolling and experience something more meaningful. By blending luxury travel with intentional social experiences, Stephanie Mignone Prochaska is helping shape a new category of matchmaking travel—one focused not just on seeing the world, but on sharing it with the right people.
