Itineraries
My services include: solo, family, business, and pleasure trips all around the world. I specialize in Europe and the Midwest of the US. I lived in Sweden so I am particularly knowledgeable about Sweden and Denmark. I know the southern province of Skåne best, but am also able to share about Gothenburg, Stockholm, and the Arctic Circle. I have traveled to over 14 countries in Europe: Norway, England, Scotland, Ireland, Poland, Germany, Czech Republic, France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Austria, Hungary, Finland, and Russia. I can give advice about public transportation in all of these countries, as well as the famous sightseeing monuments and highlights. I can easily make guides and itineraries for famous landmarks and sightseeing monuments. I greatly enjoy sharing my off the beaten path experiences and knowledge for a personal trip. I am a travel agent as well so I am able to give lots of advice about the “do's the don'ts” of hot spots and popular destinations. I also know Ecuador and Chile well from my time living there. I recommend the best cities and sights as well as accommodations. Ecuador is known for their jungles, nature, as well as beach and party fun on the coast. You can make the trip to the Galapagos Islands from the mainland. Chile is a naturally beautiful country with the Andean Mountains, to vineyards with amazing wine, to Patagonia. My home state is Minnesota. I can advise about the best things to see and do in my state as well as Wisconsin. The Midwest is known for their lakes and the lifestyle of the lakes can include: boating, water sports, fishing, and ice activities. I will want to know the basic information of your travel needs: destination, dates, accommodations, activities, and budget. We will discuss your travel needs and I will make note of your requests. I will research and put together itineraries and guides based on your answers. I will share this itinerary with you in a way that works for you.

ABOUT
Hi, I’m Emily. I have been an avid female solo traveler most of my adult life. I have traveled to over 27 countries, on four continents, as well as lived in three countries, and tried to learn two other languages. I studied in Chile for a semester in college. I lived in Ecuador for a year, learning Spanish and teaching English. More recently, I was living and teaching in Sweden, and also trying to learn Swedish. I love to explore places off the beaten path, creating my own itineraries, and making connections with the locals. I currently live in Saint Paul, Minnesota. I am a true Minnesotan at heart and enjoy being a local tourist in my home state. I am a travel agent, teacher, dog-walker, and notary public! I am excited to share my experiences, recommendations, and ideas for the places I have traveled. I am a travel agent and my small business is called Postcards Travel. I can book and plan for all types of vacations for all types of people.
