Amy Is Going Places
New Pro
Lives in Brașov, Romania
US native. Former resident of Romania. Current solo female globe trotter. I've now traveled to Romania, Italy, England, Scotland, Wales, Canada, The Netherlands, South Africa, Greece, Israel, and numerous places around the USA. I've done group tours, volunteer work, solo travel, studied abroad, and taught internationally. I lived for over a year in Romania, many years in Tennessee, and several months in England. My travel style is slow, spontaneous, and - shall we say - richly flavorful. I prefer to stay longer lengths in places instead of having a whirlwind sightseeing venture. I'll skip the chain restaurants for a hole-in-the-wall café any day of the week. I prefer a loose itinerary and remain open to what each day brings. My favorite things to do and see as I travel are... - EAT - Try whatever is local. Order the special of the day. Talk with the restaurant staff. - WALK - It encourages me to slow down, notice, and get a feel for community. - HIKE - I'm a lazy hiker. By "hike," I mean a few hours at a slow pace. - MUSEUMS - Spend an afternoon. Read the descriptions on exhibits. Talk with the docents. Buy something in the giftshop. - CHURCHES - I'm fascinated by the various ways people have worshipped the God of the Bible over centuries and across borders. Many older churches are also museums or tourist-friendly spaces. Some additionally hold regular liturgical services. - CASTLES - Castles, fortresses, palaces, big ol' houses: these places transport me back in time. I imagine the people who built, lived in, and defended them. What would they think of how we now live? If this kind of travel sounds ideal to you, follow me to easily access all the resources I've created. I'd love to help you experience slower, more meaningful travel. I have tips for how to make the most of your trip, with low stress, reasonable safety, affordability, and lots of fun. Book one of my custom services, and we'll work together to get you wheels up on your next adventure!

Bogdan Bodi
Lives in Sibiu, România
🌍 Bogdan: Exploring the World, One Bite at a Time 🍽️ Hey there, fellow adventurers and food aficionados! I'm Bogdan, your trusty guide to all things travel and taste. Hailing from the picturesque landscapes of Romania, I've embarked on a journey to discover the world's hidden culinary treasures, and I'm here to take you along for the ride! From Romania with Gusto Born and raised in the heart of Romania, I've always had an insatiable curiosity for the flavors that define different cultures. But it's not just about eating – it's about experiencing a culture through its food. From the moment I took my first bite of mămăligă to exploring the intricate spices of Romanian cuisine, I knew my taste buds were destined for adventure. Wanderlust and a Full Stomach When I'm not indulging in my favorite pastime – eating, of course – I'm exploring the world, one bite at a time. My journeys have led me to the sun-kissed shores of Cyprus, where I feasted on mezze under the Mediterranean sky. Austria charmed me with its apple strudels and hearty schnitzels, while Greece's seafront tavernas captured my heart (and stomach) with their fresh seafood delights. Hungary's markets and their delectable pastries? Let's just say I couldn't resist. Sibiu's Hidden Delights Back home in Sibiu, I'm your go-to guru for navigating the cobblestone streets and quaint corners of this enchanting city. I've practically written the book on the must-see spots and secret hideaways. Whether you're after the best spot for savoring traditional Romanian dishes or seeking out the coziest cafes, I've got you covered. Cooking Up Memories Around the Globe Now, let's talk about my other passion: cooking. My food blog isn't just a collection of recipes – it's a scrapbook of my globetrotting culinary adventures. There's nothing like recreating the flavors of a far-off land in my kitchen, and I'm always excited to share my tips, tricks, and tales with fellow food enthusiasts. Join Me on This Flavorful Journey "They say life is a journey, and for me, that journey is all about exploring new places and embracing new flavors. Each dish I try, each market I wander through, adds a new chapter to my story. So, whether you're a fellow food lover, a travel addict, or just someone looking for a taste of something new, come join me on this adventure. Let's explore the world, one bite at a time!" So, there you have it – a glimpse into my world of globetrotting and gastronomy. From Romania to the far corners of the globe, I'm Bogdan, and I'm on a mission to make the world a tastier place. So grab your forks, pack your curiosity, and let's eat our way around the world! 🍕🌎🍣

Alecia Caine - Sweet Life Italy
Lives in Guardia Sanframondi, Province of Benevento, Italy
I discovered my passion for Italy as a young woman traveling thru the country where my grandmother grew up. I fell in love with the language, the food, the people and all things Italian. I guess you could say Italy is my soul mate. For my 50th birthday, after having raised two sons as a single mother, I bought myself an apartment in a medieval village in Southern Italy. My life changed and I created Sweet Life Italy, a boutique niche tour company to share my love of the Italian way of life, especially in the South, with its amazing scenery, down to earth food and the friendliest people on earth. I created Sweet Life Italy to inspire women to savor pleasure and rediscover their passions, awaken their senses and follow their dreams. I offer you the experience of discovering Italy through your senses, indulging in the tastes and textures that surround you.. Take time for time and attune to the local rhythm and energy of Italy while savoring the food, wines, music, art and beauty of Italy. Lounge in cafes, learn to make pasta by hand with the grandmothers, picnic amongst the grape vines on delicacies grown near the local villages. I am fortunate to enjoy very close relationships with the locals so I can offer travelers very unique experiences up close and personal, not like a tourist. I specialize in organizing your dream trip to Italy in the following locations: Naples, Rome, Florence, Venice, Tuscany, Campania, Gaeta, Amalfi Coast, Ischia and Guardia Sanframondi including transportation, accommodations, guided tours, cooking classes with the nonnas, wine tasting, foodie, history, art, nature tours.

Lives in Montreal, QC, Canada
Hey, my name is Corina , I’m a passionate traveler since I was 16, who loves exploring new destinations every year with my loved ones. About me? Well, currently I live in Montreal, Québec since 2016, but born and raised in Romania, happily married (16 years, but how is counting?) and by day I'm a laboratory technician in biotechnology. I also love to cook , read and go camping! With a knack for customizing vacations for Canada and Romania, I share invaluable tips to ensure worry-free trips for everyone: family, couples, young travelers, 50+ and persons with reduce mobility (I try to make trips more accessible to those with reduce mobility!) I pay attention to detail when researching local restaurants, accommodations, and activities and I encourage you to try new things to step out of your comfort zone, like I did with my mother. I love working with mid-range budget travelers, like me, because I know how hard it is to earn money and how easily and quickly it is to spent in a vacation. Whether it’s discovering Romania's enchanting landscapes, Quebec's charm or Ontario's natural wonders, my unique expertise ensures each trip is a revelation. Most people don't have time to plan their dream vacation, so I`ll take care of everything, so everyone relishes each moment of the trip. So, let me craft your unforgettable travel escapades! Life is short, so enjoy every moment! Corina, your dedicated travel planner

They are just extra in their simplicity. Day-by-day itinerary with recommendations, insight, and a step-by-step guide. Simple. "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." -Leonardo da Vinci
