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!

Although born and raised in the US, I have lived in Rome nearly half my life. For me, this city is a muse, an inspiration, and a constant source of discovery. As a tour guide, I have spent over 15 years sharing the marvels of Rome with countless visitors, and as a travel consultant, I create detailed customized itineraries to help eager travelers discover Rome and Italy on a deeper level. My passion is helping travelers create unforgettable experiences, going beyond the “top ten” sights and truly exploring what makes a city unique: its culture, art, history, food, and people. My knowledge of Rome is deep and complex: I can tell you where to find the hidden masterpieces far off the beaten track, offer practical tips such as when to visit the Vatican to avoid the crowds, show you how to make the best of the city when traveling with children, and let you in on the Roman restaurants only the locals know! I have also traveled Italy from top to toe, and can offer in-depth advice that will help you craft your dream Italian vacation. In addition to being a Rome-expert, I’m also an avid traveler. My greatest adventures have included sailing the Strait of Malacca from Thailand to Malaysia, backpacking solo the entire length of India, deep-sea diving off the coast of Sumatra, criss-crossing Europe on a hunt for Caravaggio paintings, and road-tripping down the Pacific Coast Highway with my husband and little boy. Come with me on a deeper discovery of Rome and other fascinating Italian destinations, or replicate one of my own travel itineraries to places around Europe and beyond. PS I’m also a writer and a podcaster! Check out my podcast The Bittersweet Life for weekly conversations about the expat life, or read my book, Midnight in the Piazza, an art mystery set in Rome!

Ciao! My name is Danielle and I'm a Californian from San Diego, who's been living full time in Florence, Italy since 2020. I studied in Florence in 2016 and absolutely fell in love with the food, culture, and history, and made it my mission to move back. I moved right before the pandemic, and staying here through all the lockdowns and pandemic life really helped me discover slow travel and find all of Italy's beauty, including lesser known gems, and off the beaten path travel spots. During my three years in Florence, I have wrote for publications like The Florentine, done freelance marketing with restaurants and a travel agency, giving me high insight into the best destinations, foodie spots, and more. I am here to help you make the most of your vacation in Italy with curated itineraries for every type of traveler and digital maps to help you enjoy THE BEST food each region has to offer. Let me do the work so you can just relax and enjoy, without any stress! I've had a very unique experience living in Italy the last 4 years, as I made my official move right before the pandemic, after visiting for years. Because of this I learned to travel locally and deeply throughout the numerous incredible destinations in Italy and for that I cater my travel services to finding the most local and mindful experiences, keeping true to discovering and appreciating Italy's culture.

The first thing I usually do is wandering the streets to get a feel for the place, visiting local markets and also trying all the food. 🏞️🏝️ I love the outdoors, hiking, chasing waterfalls, driving around with the scooter, scuba diving and snorkeling. 🤔Have initial questions or need quick advice?

I'm Sara, a roaming ‘gastronome’ (it’s true, I hold a Master’s Degree in Gastronomy). I am on a consent quest for unique inspiring food and beverages while celebrating the producers that make them, learning as much as possible about the cultures and regions I visit. Have a soft spot for well-crafted… well, anything --.Hailing from Australia, but currently savouring life in Northern Italy (a particularly good launch pad, in my opinion), I've mastered the art of blending philosophy with a fork. My travel philosophy? Didactic adventures. In my world, an ideal day in a new city involves coffee, bakery treats, bikes, a leisurely lunch, art exploration, bar-hopping, and perhaps a dip in a local pool (yes, I've got a list for that) local food. I have a little something to suit everyone and am versatile and adaptable when it comes to travel budgets, be it my own or others. You can find me anywhere from luxury to real-life affordability. In the rare weeks when my suitcase is stashed, I'm busy planning the next trip to visit a producer I have longed to meet, cooking or scouring antique markets for treasures (mainly spoons). If you haven’t found me in one of these activities, it is because I am tapped into academics; either developing my thesis research on the social culture of coffee or absorbing other academic papers that pique my interest. On Thatch, I'm not just your guide; I'm your culinary confidante. I am here to spice up your journeys with humour and flavour while helping you build memorable experiences of your own.

Hi, I'm Chelsea, a travel-loving adventurer and Disney enthusiast. With over 40 countries and every Disneyland Park in the world under my belt, I'm always looking for my next big adventure! My love for Disney started at a young age and has only grown stronger over the years. I've made it my mission to experience the magic of every Disneyland Park, from Anaheim to Tokyo to Paris, and beyond. But my passion for travel extends far beyond theme parks. I'm also a dedicated travel hacker, always on the lookout for ways to save money and maximize my travel experiences. Whether it's using credit card rewards to book flights or finding the best hotel deals, I love the thrill of the hunt when it comes to travel hacking. Currently, I'm on a mission to cross off the Seven Wonders of the World from my bucket list. From marveling at the ancient ruins of Petra to standing in awe of the Taj Mahal, I'm always seeking out my next awe-inspiring adventure! Through my travels, I've gained a deep appreciation for the beauty and diversity of our world. I believe that travel has the power to change us and inspire us, and I'm passionate about sharing my experiences with others. When I'm not jetting off to my next destination, you can find me blogging about my travel tips and stories or planning my next epic trip.

Hi there, welcome to my page! Nearly 10 years ago, I packed up all of my belongings and moved across the US from my childhood home in Massachusetts to Los Angeles. I had no job, and no plan, but just enough ambition to try something new that got me out of my comfort zone. It wasn't long after arriving in Los Angeles that I discovered my passion for traveling, adventure, and being outdoors. I've been exploring non-stop ever since and have been lucky enough to experience 7 countries, 25 states, and 15 National Parks. I'm an expert in west coast travel, having explored much of California, Arizona, and Utah. I'm a hiker, camper, and love to explore off the beaten path, which you'll see reflected in all of my guides and itineraries. Because of my full-time job and limited PTO, I plan my travel ambitiously, often times driving or flying somewhere on a Friday after work for a weekend. I try to fit in seeing as much of a destination as I possibly can on my trips (even if that means sacrificing some sleep!). I'm always thinking about my next adventure and am very excited to help you plan yours! I hope you're able to find some inspiration with my guides and itineraries, and discover a new place that you want to add to your bucket list.

"Your body is not a temple, Its an amusement park." - Anthony Bourdain It is my firm belief that if you aren't having fun, you are wasting your time. I love to explore new places by taking in the sights ( usual and unexpected), eating and drinking, and absorbing local culture in all kinds of ways! I am not afraid of "offroading", but I also splurge on luxury when I can make it work.

Hey there, I'm Kayla! I have lived in New York City for over 10 years and have been traveling the world for more than 15. Through solo travels, those with friends, and group tours, I know firsthand what places you need to see on a trip, as well as those that you should see and may have never heard of. I am a history nerd, nature junkie, and huge sports fan, so my ideal trip combines all three of these things. I love ancient sites and exploring as many around the world as I can, am trying to go to all 400+ United States National Park Sites and all 30 MLB stadiums, and travel every four years for the Women's World Cup. If you are looking for guidance on where to take a short break, longer break, or adventure, I am your go-to. I can make recommendations on where you should look, tell you all of the things you can do in your destination, as well as the things you cannot miss. As I develop this page further, I want to be a resource full of fun facts and personalized recommendations on what you should do and where you should go. I have traveled to 34 US states, plus DC and Puerto Rico, and 38 countries. I've been giving friends my extensive travel guides for free for years, so now it's my turn to share with you. Living off a credit card and minimum wage for the first year in NYC with a ton of curiosity, I had to find ways to do everything on the cheap. I went to pay-what-you-wish nights at museums, found free things to do, and still very rarely do I pay full price for a Broadway show (and if I do, I know how to save at least $10). I can tell you about a lot of fun expensive things, but if you are looking to travel on more of a budget (it's a cruel world out there), I can help with that too. Travel is my passion, but I love rock climbing, softball, running, & reading too.
