Petra Udomprasert
Lives in Bangkok, Thailand
Hi! I'm Petra! I’m Thai, born and raised. My business is based in the US, but I call Thailand and South Korea my homes and have lived in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil for several months. From my years living in Thailand and my annual 2-month-long visits, I'm especially knowledgeable and up-to-date about Thailand, its trends, and its culture. What are the coolest things to see and do (not necessarily the most touristy ones!), where are the best places to find authentic food (places that say "authentic" are out of the question), and which hotels have the best service... I can give you all these insider-level tips! I've lived in the US since 2015. As a digital nomad, I don't have a city or state that I'm based in, but I know LA especially well having lived there permanently for 8 years. Another of my expertise is South Korea, Seoul specifically, and Korean culture and history in general. Having grown up learning the language and visiting so often (14 times and counting), I can comfortably count Seoul as my second home. And I can confidently give you the best insider tips to Seoul just as well as Thailand! My travel style is culture-based. I love having deep connections with the local culture and people wherever I visit. So you won't find beach clubs or nightclubs much among my recommendations. Basically, if it is something you can see and experience at home, I'm not recommending it!

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!

Dalia Farawla
Lives in Gustavia, Saint Barthélemy
Dance, Food & Culture. I've lived in Spain, Egypt, Panama, Florida and California for years. My passport is American (y hablo español), but I'm a citizen of the world 🌍 having spent more of my life outside of the states than within it. I can help you determine which CARIBBEAN island you'd like most, which city in SPAIN fits your personality, where to go in Paris to dance, which cities in FLORIDA are worthwhile if you like history, culture, beaches, night life, or attractions, exploring EGYPT's pharaonic, Christian, Arabic history as well as it's beaches! Just ask away. 📞 Let's chat about food, dance, culture, activities and low-key, less touristy locations. 1. Give me a feel for your personality and interests. Would love to meet you. 2. Based on that convo, I'll suggest an itinerary in: - Panama - Lisbon - Spain - Egypt - France - the Caribbean islands - Florida Also ask about the countries in the region. Of course, when I was living in each of these areas, I traveled through the region, so I can help you hone in on cities and activities that fit your personality. And if you're a dancer we MUST CHAT before you travel❗ My dances are Salsa, Bachata Sensual, Tango, Kizomba/UrbanKiz. After 28 years of traveling to train in dance I can maximize your fun and help you experience a meaningful, unforgettable trip with other dancers. More about me: This past year I've split my time between Miami, St Petersburg (Florida), France, St Martin and St Barth (French Caribbean) with a Tango-filled trip to Buenos Aires in between! Dance training is one of my biggest passions and motivator for getting on a plane. Mixing in your passions is the ultimate way to travel. 😉 And who doesn't like food? I've got to admit, though, that as a former Lifestyle Editor and with frequent trips to Paris... I'm spoiled. Expect foodie recommendations! HABLO ESPAÑOL 📞 ¡Sería un placer hablar!

Sarah Pollock
Lives in Madrid, Spain
Sarah Pollock is a twenty-something-year-old traveler, creative, and spiritualist. She graduated with a degree in Business Information Systems (although she did not enjoy it) and a minor in Sustainability from the University of Florida. Since embarking on her first trip abroad to Australia and New Zealand at 15 years old, she has since visited 25 countries and counting- most of them solo. She is also an avid foodie, reader, concert-goer, sitter at coffee shops, introspective thinker, and champion of small businesses. She prides herself on her romantic and nostalgic approach to seeing the world, which is reflected in the hidden gem-filled and slightly sentimental tone of her writing and recommendations. She recently spent this past school year splitting time between Tel Aviv and Be’er Sheva, Israel; teaching English to underrepresented and underprivileged children in both Hebrew and Arabic-speaking schools. She is currently continuing this work in Madrid. For more personal thoughts and musings and present updates on where she is in the world and how she’s feeling about it, consider subscribing to her bi-weekly travel newsletter, Postcards. Other subject matters, though all undoubtedly influenced by her experience living abroad, are explored through her primary publication, Older Sister (both linked in bio).
