During the last 7 years I have been traveling around the world and trying to find my way to live traveling. The first 3 years I hitchhiked around South America discovering my own country Peru and visiting Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Colombia and Ecuador. After South America, 4 years ago I started my travels in Europe and Africa. I have been in Spain, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia, UK, Turkey, Poland and Morocco. I travel slow, I like to just get inmerse into a daily life as a local so I am the kind of nomad that spend months in one country or city or decide to move for a while in a new country and come back many times and see how a place has changed, how new people and new times in life can bring me new experiences in the same place. I volunteer while traveling mainly in hostels, I also use couchsurfing hosting or as a guest, sometimes wildcamping, sometimes I travel hitchiking, sometimes renting a car or with plane, train or buses. During this years traveling I lived in Cusco, Peru for 1 year and also in Cordoba, Argentina and lately in Istanbul, Turkiye. Planning my next destination and happy to help you plan yours!

🌎 I started traveling the world in 2015 and never stopped since then. So far, I have visited more than 40 countries and still counting, learning a lot about their cultures, connecting with the locals, and exploring their nature. 🗓️ One thing I learned throughout these years is real: Planning a trip takes time!! If you don't have a direction or some previous knowledge about one destination, it will take A LOT OF TIME!! I love to plan trips, and I improved how I create my itineraries so that I now have the confidence and experience to help others plan their trips. ⛰️ I aim to use all my knowledge acquired over all these years and help you plan your next dream vacation. The type of travel I specialize in is ecotourism and adventures worldwide!! I love to be active while I'm exploring new destinations. I lived in Brazil, Serbia, and I'm currently living the digital nomad lifestyle in South America. ✅ My services will help if you are into ecotourism, adventure travel, and sustainable practices without losing the opportunity to connect with the local culture. If you like to combine traveling with being active and exploring nature, my services will help to improve your travel experience. 🛑 My services won't help if you seek the best hotels or restaurant recommendations for a specific destination. When I recommend a restaurant or accommodation in my services, it was a place I visited and had a good experience, but that's not my specialty.

I prioritize sustainable travel that balances touristy and uncommon activities, saving money and investing in experiences, leaving my comfort zone and recharging. A firm believer that nothing goes according to plan, I also believe that having a plan saves time, money, and energy. I get outside as frequently as possible and love to empower others to do the same.

Hi! I'm Jess, I'm from Mexico and I specialize in adventurous and working-while traveling styles. I'm a digital nomad/writer and almost three years ago I took my laptop and didn’t look back :) +30 countries later, I can say I've sat on sidewalks with locals and in coffee shops with friends to find the best spots for food, remote working, accommodation, and things to see. So I'd love to share that with you! Here are some quick facts about me: 🪄I specialize in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and parts of India. 🪄 A foodie and a fan of cozy coffee shops and restaurants to work in and and write from. 🪄 Slow traveler and volunteer; especially at NGOs. 🪄 Spontanous travel is the best in my opinion but it got me in sticky situations 🤭so, through experience (the hard way) I learned about visa requirements, exchange rates, phone service, and so forth. It's all compiled with me, so feel free to pick my brain about anything. See you soon!

I love to explore cities by foot, taking in the sights and culture at a leisurely pace while talking to as many locals as I can! Good food, drinks, and coffee at reasonable prices are important to me. I spent a about a year traveling Europe as a solo-backpacker and I loved every minute of it! Now I am a teacher and married and we travel as often as I have school breaks. I spend my weekends on romantic getaways and my big trips are always international! I'm ready to share all of my experience and expertise with you!

Hi! Welcome to my page, I'm so happy to have you here I am a well-seasoned traveler, thanks to my parents who took my and my sisters all over the world as kids✈️ Now that I'm married, I have passed on the travel itch to my husband, which leaves me constantly listening to his newest exotic travel plans🌏 I love to travel with a mix of planned activities so that I can make sure to visit all of my "must-sees", but also spontaneity so that I can truly enjoy the culture and lifestyle of the local land and people. I saw a great need in the travel industry for travel planners who were not affiliated with certain brands or were paid via commissions, which I think severely limits the possibilities for travelers. Because of my passion for travel, I decided to fill that need and am not here to serve all of your travel needs✨

Hi! We're Gabe and Manu. Do you find yourself idly searching Google flights with destination “Anywhere”? Do you spend your workdays daydreaming of random itineraries and mapping out the best way from Sofia, Bulgaria to Prístina, Kosovo? Yes? Then you’re just like us and would probably love some of the trips we’ve planned. No? Then maybe you hate travel planning and have come to just the right place. We are seasoned travelers who have been to over 50 countries. But we hate checking boxes and we are not trying to hit all the major attractions. If you want to run from the Louvre to the Eiffel Tower to Notre Dame, we may not be the right guide for you. If you want to hit up the Hard Rock Cafe in Yerevan on a Thursday to watch a Filipino cover band play Nirvana, then I think you’ll like our style. We know we’re all strapped for time and it’s hard to really get to know a place in 7-10 days, but we are firm believers that it is possible. In our travels we try to seek out those places where you will catch a slice of local life. Where you will look around you and think to yourself, “I am a long way from home.” We love that feeling and even if you’ve never had that opportunity, we think when you feel it you will fall in love with travel too. So, please take a look at some of the itineraries we have to offer or let us know if you’d like something custom. We love building itineraries (almost) as much as we like traveling. Wheels up!

Hi fellow travel lovers! I'm Bethany, an explorer with a passport stamped in 52 countries. Having called three different nations home, I've cultivated a deep appreciation for the cultures our world offers. By day, I navigate the realms of a full-time job outside the travel sphere, which fuels my passion for crafting concise yet insightful guides to the remarkable places I've encountered.

It's me, hi! 👋 I am Alessia, an Italian living in Oxford since 2019. During the day I work as a Nurse in an International College and at night I am a National League volleyball player 👩‍⚕️🏐 I have been infected with the travel bug by my parents who decided to take me around Europe on their campervan for all my childhood. I had the chance to experience lots of different cultures and enjoy local food, activities and people. When I was old enough, I packed my bags and moved across the Ocean for 13 months living the American Dream as an AuPair. During those months I travelled to 22 states and checked lots of things off my bucket list. I then finally moved to the UK where I have been able to enjoy amazing campsites and road trips throughout the island. I am a happy human that always sees the positive in every situation, board games lover and a true foodie! I work as a travel coordinator and get to visit some amazing places. My dream? To see them all!!

Female Solo Traveler | Traveling on a Budget Scuba Diving | Outdoors Adventures Hello!! I’m Luna 🌙 and I'm a little addicted to discovering the world, both above and below the water! I mostly travel solo and I'm usually on a budget (the cheaper I can travel, the more I travel!), but I'll invest more money for the right experience (Hot Air Baloon in Cappadocia, I'm looking at you!). In every job I've been at, I was known as the "crazy traveler" - you know that person that lands at 5am on a Monday and is in the office at 9am? or the one jetting off for the 2 days weekend every other week? Or the one that always comes back with some crazy stories? all of the above... it's me! I would like to think I’m quite a curious and adventurous person and I’m always up for trying new things, discover new foods and meet new people. There are not many things I wouldn’t be willing to try and I can’t think of any while writing this. I enjoy exploring new places, discovering new cultures and trying the local foods, but I also enjoy a good hike, a day by the beach and a crazy adventure! I strongly believe I should have been born a mermaid as I absolutely love the water, I’m a scuba diver 🤿 and I’m currently certifying as a free diver 🧜🏻‍♀️ . While I wait for my mermaid tail to grow, I want to see as much as possible of the land-based world. I’m originally from Italy 🇮🇹 but I’ve lived a little bit around California, the East Coast of the US, Barcelona and Scotland before settling in London where I worked in Marketing for 5 years. As of August 2023, I quit London and my corporate life to take a break and travel more, so stay tuned as more and more content will appear here and on my Insta!

I love traveling and it's become a big part of my life. By day, I work in higher education, where I get to organize educational trips and create exciting itineraries all around the world. Traveling for work and in my free time brings me so much joy and fulfillment that I now want to share my expertise and knowledge with more people. I take great pleasure in curating bespoke journeys tailored to individual preferences and interests and I can't wait to keep discovering and embracing all the wonders this world has in store! 🌍✈️
