ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Sally

Available for hire

Hello fellow travelers! I’m Sally from Sallylicioustravel and currently based in Germany. I’m a biochemist by training and during school I was able to live in Hawaii for a semester. Since graduating from high school six years ago, I've been on a whirlwind journey, visiting over 35 incredible countries. My passion for crafting unforgettable travel experiences is fueled by an insatiable love for discovering those hidden gems that make your heart skip a beat. In my opinion, traveling is so much more than just hopping from place to place. It's about creating memories that stay with you for a lifetime. That's why I'm dedicated to customizing your dream trip, tailored to your unique preferences and desires. For the last two years, I've been the go-to planner for all my friends and family. So, I've decided to follow my heart and turn this passion into my profession. Lucky for you, that means I'm ready to craft your very own extraordinary journey, sprinkled with your personal touch. My personal preferences are low to mid-budget, mostly backpacking adventures, but not necessarily. I am an adventure seeker and hidden gem enthusiast, as I love visiting places, that are not mainstream yet.
