Hey! I'm Anneleen, a seasoned traveller who loves adventurous destinations. For you, and a bit for myself and my partner, I go in search of the most beautiful places on earth. For many years, we have been collecting the best travel tips for destinations we have visited ourselves. We compile these in handy guides on Thatch. Organising your own round trip is really cool, but sometimes you can't see it anymore in all the information that's on the web. Or sometimes you just lack the time and want above all to enjoy that holiday, without having to spend hours and hours working on it first. It is my goal to make planning your trip a little easier and, above all, more fun. By travel, I don't mean a beach holiday but travelling to enrich yourself, be inspired by other cultures and experience the richness of nature. That is travelling for me! And that's what I really want to share with you. Is your destination not listed, or would you like to see one of our trips adapted to your needs? Of course, that's possible too. We can talk via video call and I will work out your dream trip tailored to your needs.

Hey y’all! I'm Angie, a 50+ DC-based project manager and avid traveler. My passion for arts, culture, good food, palm trees and blue waters has taken me to some awesome places and wonderful experiences. I’m forever excited about seeing new places and revisiting the ones I love. As a seasoned traveler, I have honed my skills in crafting itineraries that cater to my travel style of “easy fabulousness”. I love to have soul-enriching, fun experiences in fabulous locations, from city trips to foreign countries to island hopping …especially if I can do it without breaking the bank. Also, as an event manager for over 25 years, my expertise lies in the details. True, anyone can plan trips & itineraries these days, but most of my requests come from those who don’t want to do all the leg work or don’t want the stress of putting it all together. My specialty is weaving together itineraries that are hearty, fun & feel effortless. Family & friends tag along with me on trips I plan for myself because they know my planning style is going to deliver a fantastic trip. More common though are the friends who pepper me with questions around coordinating trip activities like the timing between each and managing transportation options. We are easy & fabulous over here. Gone are the days of coming home tired and needing a vacation from vacation. Check out my guides and let me help take the stress out of trip planning. Also contact me for customized itineraries and travel planning services if you want to plan your next getaway together. Subscribe to this shop so you'll know when I have new guides.

Hello there! My name is Clar! Having moved around to 4 different countries in my childhood, I identify as a third culture kid and love exploring the world. In particular, I love getting the feel of a city, living how the locals live and finding unknown hidden food gems. My style of travel can be described as "slow" and "easy-going". I don't enjoy checking off attractions like a checklist and that it is a must to visit everything in a set location. Rather than feel rushed, I'll selectively pick specific attractions; sometimes out of obligation of "did you really go to ___, if you didn't see ___" but also if there is some personal interest of mine. I've personally done a fair bit of solo female travelling and road tripping with my partner. My trips seek to find the balance to explore both the thrilling hikes but also finding joy in exploring the mundane local supermarkets. On Thatch and my blog, I publish itineraries that I have personally tested out and guides of past travel adventures. I also offer paid pinned maps to help guide your travel planning, travel consultation sessions and custom itineraries.

On my page, you'll find free guides for the East Coast of Australia, Japan, Spain, and more, tailored to help fellow travelers navigate their way through unforgettable experiences. Having grown up in both California and Japan, and having studied abroad through Semester at Sea and completed my undergraduate internship in Spain, I bring a wealth of diverse cultural experiences to my travel advice. I specialize in providing guidance for solo travelers, those on a budget, and students studying abroad. Drawing from my own adventures and mishaps, I offer practical tips and insights to make your travels smoother and more fulfilling. With interests ranging from surfing to photography, from indulging in culinary delights to seeking out the perfect cup of coffee, you'll find hints of my passions woven throughout my guides. My purpose with Thatch is to connect with like-minded individuals and assist them in pursuing their travel dreams. Feel free to schedule a personalized 1:1 consultation, where I'll provide you with a tailored guide to help you make the most of your adventures. Happy days, Shaq

I like being in new places more than the process of travel. Whenever I go to a new place, I like to spend some time there so that I can learn about the history and the culture. The best case scenario is to make local friends so that you can learn about the country from their perspective. Some of my cross-cultural travel highlights include: meeting my wife (and learning French because of her) and having all of my stereotypes shattered by my Middle Eastern friends. My desire to better understand my friends and their world led me to study Arabic and attend graduate school at the School of Oriental and African Studies - University of London where I learned about the history and politics of the modern Middle East. I am now passionate about helping people from the West discover the beauty of the Middle East.

I specialize in tailored concierge services that focus in celebrating the culture and its people through bespoken experiences. I want to cater to your tastes, while representing and immersing you in the culture where you are going. Although my travel style is a bit 'let's roll the dice' I can provide structured guides and ideas for your trip. I like to get to know you first, before sending you a bunch of restaurant lists you hate, and places to go you have no interest in - its important to understand what *you* want to get out of this experience. That's just not how I go about business, because at the end of the day its not just business - its people, its you valuable time.

WaNDERWOMAN.. Born and raised in the World's best Island called Palawan. I live exactly in a place known as the City in the Forest (Puerto Princesa City). I am a young entrepreneur and currently managing my own construction trading. I find it a blessing to be having my own company sitting right exactly at a place where there's a whole lot of beautiful places to wander to. Wandering is the greatest form of entertainment and for me it is not an escape for our daily routines but rather a huge part of our lives that entails awareness and clearer understanding to most things, it is where we experience matters that can even change our point of views or maybe even change our lives and makes us a better human being.

Hi there, I'm Mayu! 👋 I'm the gal behind @whyldandfree, a travel account focussed on taking the guess work out of designing your dream getaway. 🏝️ I was born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 🇲🇾 where I lived for most of my childhood before making the move to Melbourne, Australia🇦🇺 where I lived for over 15 years. Recently, I've moved to Paris, France 🇫🇷 with my husband and we now call the beautiful city of lights home, at least for the next little while. I've travelled to 31 countries and constantly adding to that tally. My passion for travel came from a young age, where I travelled extensively around South East Asia with my family. Now, I love exploring new cities, cultures, getting to know locals and let's not forget discovering the local cuisine! 😀 Travel to me is not just about ticking off another city but about really sinking your teeth into a new place and pulling back the curtain to discover more than just the popular tourist hot spots. Its about really getting a feel for the city, its people, the food, culture and customs. 🥰 Hope you find something helpful here that gets you one step closer to designing your dream trip 🤩 Happy exploring! ✈️

Hi, I'm Louisa from Germany and I love to travel.

Hi! My name is Aleksandra but you can call me Ola 🌊 I like to say: "While traveling, be open to new experiences and let yourself be surprised." The most photographed, famous places quite often do not meet our expectations, while on the other hand the underrated, hidden gems may provide unforgettable memories! I would describe myself as a practical traveler. I am the one who usually searches for information and guides the whole group of friends, letting the others take photos. I always crave local experiences. I love visiting my international friends all around the world. While traveling I want to be respectful to locals and understand their culture. If this is something that you are looking for, you're in the right place ;)
