Ani Danelz | National Park Guide
Lives in Houghton, MI, USA
Welcome to my (and hopefully our) adventures! I have lived all over the United States, and I have a passion for the outdoors and budget-travel. My style of travel is easy-going, yet filled with adventure and excitement. I focus on connecting with people and community, as well as immersing myself in the outdoors as much as possible. Finding a balance between these two have led to some amazing memories, and I cannot wait to share them with you. Most recently, I lived in my car for over seven months, while I visited every National Park in the lower 48. I hiked, camped, met amazing people, and hiked some more. I got to experience the parks like a local, because I had no timetable, no flights to catch, no rental car to return, etc. Some parks I stayed only for a few hours, and others for over a week. I chatted with park rangers, stayed with people that lived nearby, and camped with others at some amazing campsites. The travel guides I share give you an "insider" look at the national park, with tips for the best hikes, tricks for finding campsites (but I always include hotel options too), as well as information about the various aspects of the parks. I hope that you will use these guides as tools to fuel your next national park adventure!

Fiona Lazar
Lives in Lisbon, Portugal
Hi, I'm Fiona! I'm beyond excited to help you explore the amazing plant-based food Lisbon (and Portugal) has to offer! A native of Chicago, USA, it was my lifelong dream to live in Europe. After living in Germany, Italy, and Switzerland, I finally made Lisbon my home in 2023. My favorite thing is exploring new places through delicious plant-based food, so upon arriving in Lisbon, my first order of business was to try out all the plant-based food options in my new city. And let me tell you, it's been a seriously delicious job! As a certified holistic nutritionist and plant-based personal chef with a master's degree in hospitality, I love showing others how amazing plant-based food can be. At the same time, I'm no stranger to traveling somewhere new (be it a new city or a new country) and struggling to find plant-based options. Nobody wants to be surrounded by delicious food and have to settle for a sad salad and a plate of fries, am I right?! With Plant-Based Lisbon, my goal is to help you navigate eating plant-based in Lisbon and greater Portugal with ease; get to know the delicious cuisine this wonderful country is known for; and do it all in a stress-free way that allows you to truly enjoy your trip. Whether it's via one of my free guides or custom itineraries, your next incredible plant-based adventure is at your fingertips!
