Hi, I'm Aleks, nice to meet you! I have been full time travelling for the last 3 years and visited over 35 countries on 4 continents. Although nomadic life is my day-to-day reality I am still very much a nervous traveller. I once tried to buy a one-way ticket to Turkey and 'figure it out' as I go. Didn't go well for my nerves and ever since I have been doing good research and planning before every trip. This way I knew what my accommodation, transport and activity options were before even getting to the destination. And I must admit it became one of my favourite parts of travel. I'd love to help you plan your adventures! My specialities are ⭐ Multidestination tours ⭐ Budget travelling ⭐ Solo or small group ⭐ Public transport only 🌍 As for destinations, I travelled back and forth through Europe many times. I also spent many months in Africa. I lived in Scotland for a few years as well as Iceland and Poland so I can give you in-depth, local's recommendations for those destinations.

ABOUT
Hi! My name is Aleks and I have been full-time travelling for the last 7 years. During that time I visited 4 continents and 37 countries and am still discovering more. My travels started during my university years, which often meant a tight budget. Instead of giving up travel I just decided to become resourceful and find the perfect itineraries that still fit my tight budget and let me explore the world. On this account, I will be sharing many of the tips and tricks I learned along the way as well as full itineraries that I did and you can follow. My first years of travel were typical backpacking style, hostels, moving from place to place many people and experiences. But as time went by I was also able to do more comfort travel, renting a car with friends and going on road trips. Either way, before every trip, I spend weeks planning and researching and it's one of my favourite parts of the adventure. However, I know it can be overwhelming and tedious at times so I decided to share my research and my itinerary with you. At the moment I still mostly do backpacking-style trips - many destinations, constantly on the move and discovering as much as possible. So if you are looking for an active itinerary you found a perfect place! ✨Testimonials ✨ 'Wow. I am super impressed by the itinerary designed by you. You are meticulous and consider all requirement from us and also consider other aspect. The itinerary format is superb and very easy to read. A lot of effort is done in this itinerary. I have never seen any itinerary as good as your. Thank you! 😊😊'
