Denise & Marco
Lives in Medellín, Medellin, Antioquia, Colombia
Hiya!! We are Denise and Marco, a full-time travel/ life abroad married couple with a deep passion for immersing ourselves in new cultures and embracing unique experiences around the world. 🙌 We have been living a life abroad for over 8 years! 🎇As we continue to explore and learn from our travels, we have decided to share our experiences and offer personalized travel itineraries and guidance. We believe that every traveler is unique, with individual preferences and interests. We aim to curate tailor-made experiences that focus on local activities and bypass mass tourism. ✨More about us✨ Our love for travel began when we first met, and since then, it has become an integral part of our lives. In 2016, we made a life-changing decision to leave the comfort of the United States and settle in the vibrant city of London. It was here that we truly began to experience travel in its purest form. London became our launchpad, igniting our passion for discovering the world and teaching us the importance of immersing ourselves in local experiences. In 2021, we decided to take our travel adventures to the next level. We left behind our settled life in the UK and embraced a nomadic lifestyle, traveling and living abroad permanently. This decision allowed us to break free from societal norms, redefine our boundaries, and truly become citizens of the world. Our experiences taught us that by embracing diversity, we enrich our own lives and develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for the world around us. We recently adopted our fur baby while living in Colombia, and he has joined us on our nomadic adventures! We're excited to guide you on your next adventure 🙌

Emily Gladys Toll
Lives in Banff, AB, Canada
As I begin this journey into travel "influencing", I asked myself: What makes me a great travel content creator/ “influencer”? This was my answer... Travel is my OBSESSION. It begins with the foundation of my education. I studied Hospitality, Hotel and Restaurant management in college. I also have my WSET Level One, which is sommelier studies or the beginning of the process of becoming a sommelier. I studied in Niagara on the Lake which is in the Niagara region of Ontario. Niagara Falls isn’t but 20 minutes away. It’s like the Las Vegas of Canada. So tourism and travel to that area is off the charts. From there my heart got called to the Rocky Mountains of Canada. Which is arguably one of the most desired destination spot in North America, never mind the world. Over the span of 5 years I have worked in two world renowned Hotels and a Ski Resort; Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge, Fairmont Banff Springs and Banff Sunshine Village Ski Resort. This period in my life is where I truly discovered my passion and obsession with traveling internationally. In 2014 I discovered my love for Backpacking and seeing all parts of what a country has to offer. This journey started with a month long trek in the incredible country of Panama. Traveling as the only female, with a group of male colleagues, to around 5 different regions of the country, learning the culture, the language, and the depth Panama holds. The next country I spent a month in was Belize. Again, roaming the different regions, food and activities you can find in one of the most beautiful Caribbean countries. Other countries I visited during this period of my life were Costa Rica and Jamaica. Then came the beginning of a new chapter and adventure; Bali Indonesia and then Australia for two years. Australia is where I met my man. My visa expired the end of 2018, he got his and we moved back to Banff where we have lived for the last 5 years. During covid, we did a lot of exploring the west coast of Canada. Uculet, Tofino, Vancouver, and the Okanagan. After covid, we then did a two week trek exploring Baja California Surr in Mexico and the world class beaches that state has to offer. We rented a car and drove literally all around the province. And recently we just got back from exploring the insanely beautiful country of Portugal. Again where we rented a car and drove all around the country side. All the way from Nazare to the Algarve Coastline and everything in between. I’ve stayed in countless hostels, hotels and resorts. Worked and dined in dive bars and 5 star restaurants and everything in between. Spent 2 years living and working abroad in a country on the other side of the planet from everything familiar to me. Having visited 9+ Countries in the last 10 years, my twenties were truly dedicated to exploring as much of the world as I could with what I had. And because of these experiences, I completely understand the value and quality of a whole range of travel experiences; from camping in Tofino, too dining at the Shangri La in Sydney Australia. Now that I have stepped into my thirties, I am completely ready for more, to see more and experience more of this incredible planet. My passion and excitement for capturing and experiencing beautiful moments in time that only happen once in a lifetime, is truly what I live for. I believe and wish for everyone to have the opportunity to experience breathless moments in captivating unfamiliar places around the world. Stuart and I are currently working on Vlogs about our latest trips to Mexico and Portugal and also have very big plans of overlanding the west coast of Canada, the USA and into Mexico. So keep an eye out for these coming adventures💕

Trina Phillips
Lives in Tamale, Ghana
Hi, I’m Trina, and I was bitten by the travel bug more than 30 years ago! I started exploring the world independently way back, and since 2017, I’ve been a full-time traveler, diving deep into the rich cultures of Southeast Asia (7 countries) and Africa (11 countries). Currently based in Tamale, Ghana, I’m all about experiencing destinations in a real, down-to-earth way—no luxury fluff, just genuine adventures. And starting in January 2025, I’ll be traveling overland from Ghana to Namibia in what I have creatively dubbed, Africa Tour 2025. My travel style? Comfort-budget. I stay in local spots that are as inexpensive as I can get and still be comfortable. I eat where the locals do and hop on public transport when it makes sense. However, I do slide up to mid-range now and again for an extra bit of comfort and for clients who prefer a softer stay. Whether you’re looking for vibrant markets, hidden gems, or cultural hotspots, I’ve been there, done that, and am more than happy to pass along what I’ve learned—honestly and without the hype. I’m a big believer in being upfront. My guides and consultations come from real experiences, and I never recommend anything I wouldn’t do myself. You’ll find my approach both informative and practical because I want you to have an incredible, stress-free trip. Whether you’re tackling the lively streets of Accra or searching for unique experiences across Africa, I’ve got the insights to help you navigate it all. And let’s not forget the creative side! I have a huge passion for arts and crafts, especially anything performance-related like drumming, so you’ll often find those cultural highlights in my recommendations. My goal is simple: to help you have the best adventure possible, with all of the fun and none of the hassle. If you’re looking for honest, practical advice from someone who’s been there and done that, I’d love to help you plan your next unforgettable journey!

Takako Kato - Japan
Lives in Tōkyō, 東京都 日本
I was born and raised in Japan. I love traveling and have visited nearly 40 countries so far. Currently, I shuttle between Tokyo and London, working as a travel consultant. I create itineraries and handle bookings for travelers visiting Japan. What do you think of when you imagine Japan? When one imagines Japan, they may envision Tokyo with its high-tech reputation, perhaps bringing to mind images of robot restaurants. Furthermore, Japan is often associated with its famous anime culture, with characters visible throughout the city. One might also think of the convenience of enjoying high-quality meals, which are surprisingly affordable. All of these are true. In addition, there are historical places like temples, shrines, and Japanese gardens. Japan is also rich in nature, offering different scenic beauties in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. From the winter sports in Hokkaido in the north to the beach resorts in Okinawa in the south, Japan offers diverse natural landscapes to enjoy. Regarding food..... I can talk about them non-stop! The charms of Japan are endless. My goal is to assist travelers to Japan in creating the best memories by providing tailored itineraries based on their preferences. I am passionate about supporting everyone who travels to Japan, ensuring they have an unforgettable experience. Let's embark on a journey together to discover the multifaceted allure of Japan.

Costa Tica Travel
Lives in Guanacaste Province, Coco, Costa Rica
Hi! I'm Kimi, your Costa Rica expert! ☀️ I've been living in Guanacaste, Costa Rica for three years now, but I have been a repeat traveler to CR since 2016. My experiences have enabled me to create carefully crafted content inspired by local knowledge. ➡️ Living in Costa Rica has given me the opportunity to get to know Costa Rica's top destinations authentically. Before living in Guanacaste, I lived in Heredia, outside of San Jose, for 5 months. From Tamarindo to Puerto Jimenez, Monteverde to Uvita, Puerto Viejo to Playas del Coco, I've had the opportunity to travel to all different destinations and discover many hidden gems off the typical Costa Rica itinerary. As far as types of travel, I'm a big advocate of slow travel, but I have done many different kinds of travel within CR. I have planned or helped others plan backpacking, family, and girl trips to this beautiful country. Working as an international teacher has given me a different perspective in advising longer trips to Costa Rica. I've learned many tips and tricks for finding community, getting around without a car, leasing an apartment, learning Spanish, renting a vehicle, and surviving in the hot province of Guanacaste. It's very important to me, as a traveler, that I understand the cultural context of the country I am traveling to. My goal is to help my clients feel comfortable and confident in Costa Rica, while respecting this country's unique norms and culture. My itineraries and guides are designed with all kinds of travelers in mind. From solo traveling to family trips, I've helped many people plan their dream vacation to Costa Rica. My goal is for you to experience Costa Rica at its most authentic, getting to know and interact with its unique culture and biodiversity. I’m excited for all that awaits you when you answer the call to this natural wonderland. I’m happy to help in whatever way I can along the way! Pura vida!

Kimberly Wan
Lives in Perth WA, Australia
📍I've lived in Western Australia for over 16 years when I lucky enough to move here as a kid, and I made sure to take the opportunity to eat my way through the best brunch places in town, hike to beautiful waterfalls and travel extensively along WA's most gorgeous south. With New Zealand so close, I've jumped into exploring the South Island as much as I could. 🏔️ My favourite activities when I go to a new place is by connecting with nature as much as I can, and of course complete with thrilling adventures! I continue to chase after sunsets, climb mountains and swim in oceans not only in Australia but across the seas with meticulously planned itineraries filled with must-do's. I am also as ready as ever to throw myself from a plane and paraglide through the air - or speed down a hill on a skyline luge at top speed! 🪂 Never passing up the opportunity for a good eat, eating your way through the best feeds in a new place is an adventure on its own. 🍛 🚗 Having been on countless road trips along WA's south to experience glittering beaches and white sand, eat tantalisingly delectable food and live in mesmerising views and stays, I am here to help you do the same and indulge in the magic of Western Australia. I take my road trip outside of WA and along New Zealand, enchanted by the impossibly blue lakes, hike to a glacier and take a helicopter to the snow-capped mountains. 🚁 My passion lies in the outdoors, chasing the most beautiful sights around. So join me, and I'll show you around!

Sierra Hahn-Ventrell
Lives in Austin, TX, USA
Travel is my life. I travel to experience the culture, the food, and the people of the places I visit. Don't get me wrong, every now and then I like to do the touristy things or take a vacation just to relax but my specialty is finding ways to experience the culture without feeling like a tourist. My name is Sierra. I grew up in Washington, D.C., and have been traveling since I was a kid. I've lived in Costa Rica, Florence Italy, in a van, and in and out of Airbnbs across the continental U.S. while traveling with my husband and dog. I've been a digital nomad, got the girls' trip out of the group chat, and traveled solo, but most of all I love adventuring with my husband and dog. When I met my husband he had never really traveled and didn't think it was possible to travel unless you were rich. Over the years, we've learned to travel no matter what our budget is or where we want to go. We've done everything from hostels to five-star resorts to boutique eco hotels and camper vans. We know that each vacation is different depending on what type of trip you're looking for and that is why my guides are tailored to different types of travel personas. Are you looking for a wild girls' trip in Cabo? I've got you. Interested in exploring Costa Rica's off-the-beaten-path beaches? I'll share my favorites. Looking for that perfect romantic trip (so much so that this is where my husband proposed!)? Don't worry I'll share with you our perfect day. I love sharing all of my favorite things about travel and hope you too will enjoy each of my favorite places around the world! Reach out to me to schedule a travel consultation or book a custom itinerary!
