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💕

Alexis Harrison
Lives in Dallas, TX, USA
Hi, I’m Alexis! 👋🏽, a travel enthusiast, custom itinerary creator, and passionate foodie born and raised in Dallas, Texas. My love for travel started young, thanks to my mom and grandma, who took me on my first international trip to Negril, Jamaica, when I was just 15. That first taste of adventure sparked a fire in me that’s been burning ever since. I’m all about traveling in a way that feels authentic and leaves a lasting impact. When I’m not crafting personalized itineraries for others, you’ll find me diving into the local food scene wherever I go. There’s just something about savoring street food from a hidden market or indulging in a dish that’s unique to the region that makes me feel connected to the place. Food is such a big part of my travel experience; it’s how I get to know a destination from the inside out. Recently, I ventured to the stunning islands of Bora Bora and St. Maarten for the first time, and both trips were pure magic. From crystal-clear waters to vibrant local cultures, each place had its own charm that left me in awe. I’m always on the lookout for experiences that go beyond the usual—whether that’s discovering a hidden gem of a restaurant, wandering through a local market, or just taking in the everyday beauty that makes a place unique. I believe in creating travel experiences that are more than just a checklist of sights; they’re about diving deep into the culture, tasting the flavors, and living every moment to the fullest. I’m here to help you experience travel in a way that feels genuine, personal, and unforgettable. Let’s make your next journey not just a trip, but a story worth telling! Follow along, and let’s explore the world together.

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!

Kristina| kristinavstheworld
Lives in Belgrade, Србија
Hi, my name is Kristina and I am an adventurer passionate about slow travel. I’ve dedicated the last 5 years of my life to exploring the world, and gaining wider understanding on travel planning-especially budget friendly one! As I prioritize slow travel, I have chosen moving away from my homeland Serbia, and have spent 1 and a half year in New York, 6 months in San Francisco and around 2 years in Madrid. During my stay, I have done as much of traveling as possible, using up my days off, weekends and public holidays. I’ve joined this amazing platform in order to share my passion for my favorite places, as well as all the knowledge I have gained along the way. I will be sharing my favorite itineraries, budget tips, cultural insights, best coffee, places to eat, cool activites, and more. I can help you add the element of the authentic, local experience while abroad, and be of great help to different types of travelers, especially those with tighter budgets, traveling solo or studying\volunteering abroad. I specialize in Spain, though I am not limited to it, as I’ve had a lot of experience in travel while living abroad, where I have independently planned each and every one of my adventures. Hence, I am looking forward to helping you have the bestest time by taking care of that heavy planning part, so that you can fully enjoy your stay. I can help you out in 3 languages – Serbian , English and Spanish, so don’t hesitate to contact me!
