About Us

Opulence: Life Affluently Defined, LLC was co-founded by Michael Verdun and Sylvia Torres. When they met, a Realist and a Dreamer crossed paths and founded a deep friendship based on the principles of honor, respect, loyalty, and integrity. As their bond grew stronger, they discovered that they shared a similar appreciation for what an amazing travel experience encompasses. At that time, Sylvia’s vision of developing an international luxury business brand was a daydream while Michael’s vision of impacting the world through creating profound experiences was a distant possibility.


Eventually, they established a quality of life that few would imagine is possible and innovated ways of recreating the amazing experiences they have for others to enjoy. Opulence is the product of those ideas brought to life, and the experiences we create for you are inspired by the experiences they appreciate the most.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to serve as the liaison between the lifestyle you presently experience and the lifestyle you dream of living. The experience of true joy and fulfillment is elusive for most of us...from the wealthiest jet-setter to the person who shines their shoes. The path that leads one individual to bliss will lead another to an entirely dissatisfying experience. This understanding is what sets our organization apart and serves as the foundation of how we influence the lives of our clients. We do more than marry your imagination to exotic destinations. We get to know who you are, the way you perceive the world, and based on that well-informed and intuitive understanding, we create travel experiences that lead you to the awareness of what affluent living means to you.


Once you have experienced what it's like to be one of our clients, you will come to understand that you are more than a beneficiary of a profound life experience...you are a distinguished member of an international culture of alike mind.
